    Default Did you know you don’t have to buy those fancy fabric printer sheets ?

    I haven't tried this method, but it sounds interesting, not necessarily for bean bags though, for memory quilts.

    Has anybody done this? Would be interested in hearing what your results were.

    Reposting the link...I copy/pasted it into the addressbar and it worked for me.

    i will definitely have to give this a try.

    a side note ... if i'm making a "bean bag" for any reason, i don't use beans, rice, or any other dried food product as stuffing. i use either small buttons, cheap beads from the dollar store, or something else along those lines. then i can safely toss it into the wash.

    WOW. I just finished making a 50th Anniversary quilt for my brother and bought $75 worth of the "fancy fabric printer sheets". Now I know better. Thanks for the info.
