I think this would be a novel Valentine gift for my little friends who are athletic. What size is good for a 8-14 year old?

cute idea how about the side of a pce of notebook paper, 8x10 or so, and quilt it into uneels, .
i made one for myself that size with 3 evenly spaced rows of quilting. (show us your yo-yos. haven't seen any) |
Hi dottie! Long time no "see".
I think somewhere around 6" by 12" would be good. That way it would wrap around a sore spot on the back, or hang over a knee easily without having to hold it there with your hand. I use flax seed from the bulk section at the grocery instead of the rice. It doesn't stink and has a higher tolerance to the heat. I got this "idea" from a shop that sells these worldwide called the Lavendar Shop. I only have to heat it 30 seconds and it stays warm for 30 minutes. A couple drops of lavendar oil is very soothing too! This is a great idea for a gift for guys too. Take care, Red |
I make them according whatever size piece of fabric I have.
I have found that using a small hand towel or wash cloth to hold rice works good. Cover can be removed to wash. |
Here is the link to the place I was talking about dottie. It is really a neat place to visit.

Do all grocery stores carry flax seed?
Not the ones in the boonies where I live! LOL! Ours do have lots of rice though. |
I like to make channels in the bag for the rice, so it doesn't bunch all up in one spot :D:D:D
|
I make ones that are 3x5 inches to put in the kids pockets. Nice if they have to wait for the bus or something!
|
Great idea! I'm going to see if I can get some flax seed/Thanks Red!
