Butterfly Eye Rice Bags
 
3 Attachment(s)
Thought I would share my latest project...Actually I've been making several different shapes to soothe various joints of the aging body. LOL Also took Holy Socks for some of them and used acrylic washes to make my own fabric designs. Had to make several before settling on this size...some have the round edge and others are squared off. Feel free to copy, change, use or pass along as you wish. So long as you don't copyright it and charge for the pattern it's totally ok with me...I prefer my eye bag frozen but my husband uses his to keep the oil ducts under his eyelids flowing. He has had very serious problems with them being clogged creating cysts that had to be lanced and drained. Instructions are inside the pattern. Hope you find it useful.

thanks so much for sharing this pattern. i suffer from blepharitis, too. i usually use a damp washcloth heated in the microwave, but it cools off too fast. this is a great solution :thumbup:
