    They are great :)

    I had meant to make some of these before so now you've pushed me to definitely make some next weeked. Thank you.

    One question though...the tape..do you think bias binding tape would be ok? Otherwise I will have to go out of town to buy anything. What do you use?

    Thank you Sally.
    I bought tape for 10p per metre at Yorkshire Trading, but you can buy it online. Not sure about biasbinding - the site just says not to use ribbon as it can itch.

    pootleflump; just been for a nosy on your blog....in the side bar it says you're a beginner to sewing....
    dont believe that! Your bags are lovely and look very professional.

    Aww thanks Pennib. What a nice compliment! Yes I am a beginner. The stuff on my blog is the only stuff Ive ever made. Hadnt touched a sewing machine before until I got one in March this year. Its been a bit of a learning curve but I really enjoy it! :)

    It asks you to cut the tapes at 1 metre so that they can then trim to fit the child.
