    I started this with the idea that it would be a reusable grocery bag tote. If I use insul-bright batting it will help keep the refrigerated items cooler on the trip home.

    I did not think of it keeping things cooler! I have used it in pot holders.

    Just googled it and found a nice little bit of info at Joanne's: http://www.joann.com/insul-bright/xprd986469/

    That is so cute! That would be cute for a kitchen wall hanging too.

    I would use a fusable fleece or if you want it firm, use Decobond. I would not use insulbright in a tote bag. I like what you did with the food prints. I have a collection of those prints to make my son who works in a grocery store a throw quilt with them.
