Hey Guys
I've done a couple of little hampers, but organised myself really late this year.
Anyway just wondering if anyone can give me advice on wrapping them? I've had a go but I just made a total mess of it. Looks nowhere near as good as yours.
Thankyou :-)
If i can master the wrapping i'l put some pics up for you.

Ooh I may have figured this out while I was waiting for the page to load lol
but how do you make these? I was after something similar for my niece's movie night hamper - was eyeing up the fleecy blankies in Woolies but they sold out and haven't seen any more at the price I want to pay and the right colour

Am guessing its glueing the edges instead of hemming? I can get the fabric from the remnant shop (just something else to squeeze in to err 3 and a bit days:eek: )

Been making snowman soup/flannel cupcakes and homemade chocolate slabs all morning - OH thinks I have lost the plot (I never knew the plot in the first place :rotfl: )

Still haven't made my mince pies nor the dundee cake, plus got to make a chocolate roulade for xmas eve... time flies!!

These are the instructions I followed...

It's very easy, just a bit repeptitive

I got my fleeces from Ikea, Primark sell fleece blankets for about £2 each I think.
