I love your bags...just purchased the chenille cutter by Olfa.....now I am really anxious to get started with it...I am planning on some bath mats. Had thought I would do them solid, but after seeing your prints, I might have a change of heart!!

I live in Saudi Arabia so I get the majority of my fabric here.
I made the chenille. You use 3 different fabrics,lay the three fabrics right side up, one on top of the other, then sew rows at an angle 1/4 - 1/2" apart. When u have your whole piece sewn, cut thru the top 2 layers of fabric between the rows of stitching. I have a chenille cutter but a sharp pair of scissors will work as well. Just make sure u don't cut thru the bottom layer!
