"I can see using cheap cotton doilies from the dollar store and crocheting around them but paper? How do you wash them? That would not work for me. Like many people I am allergic to dust so they have to be washed. The paper would not last."

"This is a great idea. I have the fat quarters already. I just have to sew them together and it will not take long. Decent fabric curtains in the store can be pricey. Now if you can sew you have no excuse. Just sit down at the machine and start sewing. It will be done in no time. Thank you."

"This pattern requires a trip to the thrift store. You can buy those sweaters for a low price and make your own poncho. You will not see a poncho like that anywhere else. It is easy to make. Good idea. Thank you."

"This is a good way to learn how to do bias binding. However I would not go to this effort to save towels. If they are fraying like that, they are on their way out. But if you want to learn a sewing method and just use the towels for a swimming pool or whatever, go for it."

"This is a great project to make for a young girl. It will make an original dress and won't cost a lot of money. I remember when I was that age, I just wanted a lot of dresses and choices in my wardrobe. This would do it. Great design."

Wow so that is how it is done and with a sewing machine. I tried to make some by hand before and they turned out awful.It unraveled and was a mess. Anyone have the same problem? I never made them again. Now I find this video and it is so great and a tutorial to go along with it. There is nothing like watching it being done. It is so easy. I will be using this for now on.
