The bag filled - you only 1/2 fill the bag with rice, so that it will move around and mold to your body.

I filled four of the bags, and left the other four unfilled. They will be ready to fill whenever a gift is needed. Great idea to have these on hand for a quick gift. Suitable for both men & women.
Update: 3 of the filled bags have already been claimed by family members ... that is a good sign!

Thanks so much for the linkup. I love your choices. I think the polka dots are my favorite. Did you really press the inner bags? Nice touch. I like your bags and labels very thoughtful. You're correct, it's a great sign when the family offs with them. On Christmas I brought out the ones I made for the tutorial and they were sucked up faster than the eye could see. I still don't know who took what. It is a gift that keeps on giving and I get requests from people I made them for a couple of years back for new ones on a regular basis.
ReplyDeleteI've been wanting to make some of these rice bags. I agree that the are a wonderful gift to keep on hand for when you need that last minute something.
ReplyDeleteLove your rice bags. I saw the tutorial by Selina too at Sew We Quilt! You picked pretty fabric for the covers. Thanks for sharing!
