What a wonderful tutorial! Thanks so much!!!

:) luv it i'm going to try it. hope it is'nt that hard thanks.

use the same technique to make the bags. either with or without the sewing machine. the base is the same as rug tut then start to turn bag or bowl up. i suggest if you are going to do a bay try bowls first. I'm doing my bag by hand. Uses a great deal of scraps.

Can you glue the ends with tacky glue instead of using pins???

You might try a hardware store....I have a bunch (from another hobby) that I bought at an Ace Hardware store.

If you're an Internet shopper like me, try Amazon.com. They have 100 foot and 200 foot packages and I think they qualify for free shipping.

What a great idea to get rid of "ugly" fabric! Heading to the hardware store today! Thanks!!

First I thought Ohh neat mini rugs for cats to lay on, then I thought - they would go crazy for bowls, Do you think I can taper it enough to make giant bowls?

Love the tutorial, thanks so much!

I worked at Joanns and they sell it by the yard in the home decor department (clothsline) make sure they mesure and don't tell you that there is x# of yards on the spool...You can also use a coupon if it isn't on sale.
I love the tutorial...
