Oh the door keeper bag is a great idea...very pretty...thanks and what a great donation item....Another tape idea is to ask your construction worker son to save you his broken tape...Worked for me...

Thank you for the tip! I will pass along the info at our next guild meeting.

I was able to go to a hardware and they had some pieces of the measuring tapes that were laying around. They gave them to me for nothing.

copycat - would you allow me use your pictures to show how cute these turn out? I'm going to share the tutorial on my blog - and would love to show off your finished bags? Thank you again for sharing!

Thank you for the reminder...my late sister made these maybe 4 or 5 years ago. I have one put away in a drawer so I will always have it as I only take it when I travel.
