Sew Your Own Handles

This is super simple.

-Out of sturdy fabric, cut out 4" x 22" rectangles. You can use canvas or denim or any other fairly thick fabric.

-Fold in half (hotdog) and iron a nice sturdy fold.

-Open it up, bring each edge into the center line and iron the new folds you've made.

-Close up along center fold...

and sew along edges to secure

Yep, that's it.

  2. I just love your blog - tutorials - whacky kids Wednesday etc. i am always looking for ways to reuse things i have or just use up scraps of fabric - i have enough fabric to cover the western hemisphere if i had the time but alas i don't but what i came to see was the fabric grocery bag but could not resist clicking around - what fun! An hour later i have the pattern directions and plan to get to work on theses wonderful bags while my grandson is sleeping and my husband is working. if i can figure out how i will post pictures of the finished product - i cant just follow directions i am sure there will be some rick rack - or some such nonsense somewhere on mine to ensure my husband does not use them - he would not use them to shop oh heck no he never does that but may use them to store golf balls or some of his duct tape or glue that he loves to collect. ok enough - thanks for the fun read and hope to come back and leave pictures - if you have some insight on how just send me an email at kitkatvz@yahoo.com

So glad you decided to leave a message! Feel free to talk about yourself and don't worry if you tend to leave marathon comments. I don't mind. In fact, those are my favorite kind.

Finally, feel free to type your website address within your comment because one of these days I will be moving my blog and would like to retain links to all of you wonderful people (the blogger formatting of commenter links doesn't get transferred properly).

Cheers.
