Thanks for all the advice about pillow bags, I've just finished making the one Clay recommended and I'm impressed - with the concept not particularly the execution, my dressmaking skills are very rusty - it's a very adaptable shape and it's taking my largest round pillow, I think it's a 24inch,

A thought occurred to me about a dorothy type pillow bag. I know how difficult it is to hem circular pieces of fabric - well, it is for me!! How about looking out for 48 dia circular table cloths during sales and buy two. I know I have bought similar cloths after Christmas so I have them for

I made a bag to carry my Toustou roller pillow in, or rather I converted an existing bag. I had a large old but sturdy canvas tote bag which I bought years ago from the Lands End Outlet. As I have lots of lace tote bags from conventions I decided to chop this one up. I unpicked the side

The handles are usually just a bit of dowel or even a posh bit of timber which is fed into the entire edge of the outside of the last 2 arms and they have a D shaped cut out of the fabric so you can grasp the handle. Fran in Australia Another way to finish the two arms that become the

First of all, enthusiastic thanks to everyone who has posted ideas about different styles of pillow bags that we can make. Robin, great drawing. It came through perfectly for me. About your question on whether the two flaps that fold over really hold the pillow, I should think a couple of lengths

From: [EMAIL PROTECTED] How well does the dowel stay in place when you're not carrying the pillow? Well, you could probably put something like a big wooden bead or rubber leg-protectors on the ends of the dowel. Something to make the tips just a bit thicker than the shaft, but still fit

Hello Gentle Spiders, My favourite carry bag is a simple piece of fabric cut about 6 inches - 15 cm larger than the pillow base and hemmed all around to take a piece of strong elastic. Takes up no room when removed - as no padding. I can put it over my pillow while the pillow is still on its

Instead of a pillow bag or trying to find a large square piece of fabric, you could use an appropriately sized cotton table cloth and tie the corners together over the pillow. Jean in Poole - To unsubscribe send email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] containing the line: unsubscribe lace [EMAIL PROTECTED]
