Thank you so much! I knew there was a way to neatly finish the ends; now I know 2 ways. I’m not sure which I’ll use at this point. I’m subscribing first sure. 😊
I’d definitely do 1 &2 versions. This will make good Christmas gifts when the fabric is customized to the individual (like college students)!! The 3rd version seems to be a good sturdy one for use if making a long handle for like walking the dog!!! Very nice ideas!
i liked the lobster clasp hardware you used...going to return the other kind i purchased that you use the pliers with..).plus it swivels; i like the idea of little batting...might even use iron on interfacing too...thanks...good job
What type of batting do you use? I want to try version 2 as I have a lot of cotton scraps, but the batting you are using is not the 4 oz batting that I use for purses.
Can you tell me what kind of Scotchgard spray you use for these and where do you get it from? I did a quick look on Amazon and it appeared that the sprays were very expensive. So I'm wondering if I was looking at the wrong.
Hi MaryAnn, I use the red bottle, "Fabric Water Shield" Scotchgard, but the yellow bottle would work too "Outdoor Sun and Water Shield", they even have one called "fabric crafts watershield". If it is too pricey on amazon, I would suggest looking at your local walmart. Or look for a smaller bottle, 283 grams. I have looked again and it seems easier to find on the canadian amazon then the american amazon. Not sure why that is!
