I made a snap bag-you know the bag with the metal tape measure in it? Well it was cute as could be and did snap- the tape measure was in the right way, BUT if you turned it over there was still enough space for things to fall out-I had to put a Velcro closure on it to keep it together! Any suggestions?

I use 1 inch metal tape.

I'm planning to remake the one I made in class with heat set Velcro. Haven't used this product before but bought a little package on sale and thought it was worth a shot. I couldn't stand the snap of the tape measure. I guess it reminds me of when I was a newby teacher and the kids were wearing snap bracelets. They drove me crazy then too.

Huh, didn't know that. Will have to try again.
Thanks, Linda! |
I had the same problem at the corners! So I posted a tutorial which (for me) successfully prevents that problem:

i hadn't worked with the press on velcro before. then i used it to add pockets to a fabric purse for vacation. didn't work out. the velcro kept pulling off and was just a mess.
