I have been using plastic canvas in the bottom of my purses to help make it sturdy. I ran out and can't find what I have here somewhere. My question is, what else can I use for this??? I need to get these finished.
I got one from a friend. She used cardboard. I don't want to use that. I knew what would happen when I washed it. I washed it Sat. and it happened. That cardboard misshaped and went into a ball. I got it out. So I'll fix another insert for that one also. I hate driving an hour just for some plastic canvas. Hopefully I can find it. It's in a tote somewhere. But thought maybe there was something else I could use or buy later that might be better than plastic canvas. This is what I need it for! [ATTACH=CONFIG]273877[/ATTACH] |
Here are some ideas

some have used the cheap cutting boards from the $2.00 shop. they just cut them down to size I think you would need a saw to cut them.

I can't help you with items to permanently sew in.
I have always made a sleeve to put matboard in. i remove it to wash ofcourse. |
I may have to start doing that and just use a thick cardboard. And tell them not to wash that part. I've got to get these done. I have several more things to get done before Christmas.
Thanks for the help. |

you could use timtex or fast to fuse as that is washable. Got any template plastic? round the corners off?
Or some pelmet viline a couple of layers bonded together could also work. Have you got a plastic cover on a file folder that is about the right weight? Bekcs |
In a pinch I've used a couple of layers of plastic placemats. I mean PINCH.

I have used foam board from the Dollar Tree. I always make a sleeve to it can be removed and I also don't sew the ends closed on the sleeve so that the actual sleeve can be washed.

I don't know about everyone else, but boy Christmas is creeping up too fast. I have lots to do before that time comes. |
