There are 3 days left
of freedom before school is out. I spent the morning melting plastic bags. The idea was to make a zippered pouch for the teachers and place a candy bar inside. Well.....plastic melts really well and sometimes it melts unevenly. long story short the pouches are not the size I had hoped they would be :) It's always so hard trying to find something for teacher gifts. How many boxes of chocolate and #1 teacher mugs does one person need? If I started back in March I wouldn't have a problem, but I started today.
Each plastic sheet took about 5-6 plastic bags. I also had to work with keeping the designs as visible as possible. Oh...I also only had 7 inch zippers, and I wasn't going shopping!
Here are the finished pouches the 2 large ones are for my 2 girls!
The trick is to use pretty bags!
I still have a large shopping bag of unused bags and lots of melted pieces that didn't get used.
HMMMMMM.........
Happy Quilting
