Btw, I've thought of another use for your chapstick project. My daughter has asthema, but she's always losing her inhaler! The chapstick project would translate wonderfully into an inhaler case project! Just make it a little bigger I would think? Anyhow thank you again for another great video!

    I love your energy! And these ideas are great. I especially like the shopping bag. What beautiful colors. Can wait to visit the stores in this area - there are at least three in an hour's drive from my home - and see what I can find and recreate them. I am thinking potholders and hotpads for casserole dishes...for a start.
    I'll be visiting your channel to stay inspired.
    Now, where did I put my 15 cent packages of bias tape?

    I love HeatNBond. I used it to do the hems and edge seams for drapes for my living room and didn't sew one stitch. I used those clippy rings on them to hang them on the rod and they came out great!

  • @carolgrzeschik
    @carolgrzeschik Месяц назад +11

    I really like the idea of the final project, however I would suggest if you make another you sew the straps in with the bottom. Little better reinforcement and a nicer finish on the bottom. But it was still cute the way you made it.

    • @bonnielarson6431
      @bonnielarson6431 Месяц назад +2

      I agree! For the tote: Pin the straps in place on each drying mat before you sew the bottoms together. Also, these mats are lightweight, and will likely tolerate wear poorly, so I was really happy to see you apply the heat and bond to the black mat. But even then, a running stitch around the outside edge would prolong the useful life of each project.

  • @OrlaQuirk
    @OrlaQuirk Месяц назад +1

    I like the beach bag idea. I saw people on RUclips making tote bags, lined and unlined. One person even lined the tote with waterproof lining.
    But I found some summery mats a few weeks ago, and want to make an unlined beach bag for a friend.
    Really, I used to have a terry cloth beach bag, and it worked fine. This stuff soaks up and holds water better than terry! So no lining, which will allow the bag to dry faster.
    I also intend to make some padded crossbody bags to protect phones.
    I think I will use folded cloth or webbing for the straps.
    Some people have to carry their phones everywhere, and it would be handy to have a crossbody bag for that.
    I'm glad to see mats in dark, business-looking colors.
    Adorable as they are, the pumpkins and flowers and all, might not go over as well as black or navy would in a business setting.

I stepped in a hole, and,my foot went one way,my leg,went the other. Dr says it's a torn deltoid in my ankle and will take weeks to heal...(ugh) then, my 4 month old puppy,got out,ate something that gave her e-coli, she couldn't be saved....ANYWAY, just wanted to tell you thank you, for making me laugh..it let me know everything will work out for me,,,God has a plan..❤

    I Reslly like that yellow mat in the last tote. The mat reminds me of a purse I had years ago. I made a tote bag similar to yours years ago using some old upholstery fabric so my daughter had an overnight bag for sleepovers. That way she didn’t have to use the plastic grocery bags. Thanks for the memory ….hmmm now I need to look for that tote! 😂😂😂. Ruth

    Glad you showed us you were using up misc old stuff, like how to make the narrow green bias tape work. Bcs let's face it, we all save up stuff to use "sometime" & need ideas how to do just that! I think I would make my coasters bigger bcs I like big coffee mugs, & that's the fun part of crafting, tweaking it to our own style.
