i made a couple bibs & used the fabric clue to hold the velco on...worked great & still on after many washings...

just don't leave the velco clasped together when you do that... they need to be apart....

i had to throw out the first bib, cause i glued it together!

just showed it to ddil, she said "great, now that he's finally potty trained someone comes up with just what i needed!"

Hello Janice

Here are 2 pictures of the tissue holder.
Plus a picture of a squirrel looking up at a bird feeder. I call him "Stealer."

To Make:

Cut a strip of fabric Appx 12 inches long, fold in half lengthwise, close the open end of the strip and one side, turn right side out. You will have a double strip Appx 6 inches long. Ford strip in the middle of the length of the strip, press for a crease, then bring each end of the strip up to the crease. You will need to pin each one so it won't slip. After this process is finished, take zig-zag across the unfinished end. Make sure both end of zig-zag are tied. Turn until zig-zag end is inside the holder. Finished, ready for tissue. If you make several strips while watching TV the night before, you can make many in 2 hours the next day.

To Make: Oops! Forgot to tell you the width of the strip. It is 6 inches wide. (1/2 inch allow for seams)

No pattern just figure4d it out and made it.

Would you be willing to share the dimensions and how you did it? This would be a great little tutorial.

I would .. but would have to put that together as I revised as I went along. today I need to make another one.. so perhaps I can actually write down what I do.
