Love these. Had my grands make them for themselves, even grandson made one, we call it his gear bag! Have also made one for their school principal, she carries her cell phone and walkie talkie in them as she goes about the building. That reminds me, I want to make her a new one for fall, in a kid print fabric. Memo to self: Add to "do-list"!
Also, I found the carpenter's tape measures the cheapest at Aldi's. Much more reasonable than at the home improvement stores. Think outside the box when you go to get some!
