I've designed and made more
LuggageTags and
ToothbrushCases. See how I use here the button to secure the hand written address label to stay in the plastic pocket. I didn't make any buttonhole but sew the button so close to the edge secured by BiasTape that the plastic pocket can be closed under the button. And more important; even if the pocket would open the button itself would keep the address label inside.
(These were the last pieces I had left of the blueberry fabric! I made
BlueBerryPie & VanillaCream PotHolder of it on January 2011. There was still plenty of fabric left for
a baby dress. If you can not find similar fabric but like blueberries you can always make
Gluten free BlueBerryPie.)
This LuggageTag has deeper plastic pocket so it doesn't need a button to secure the address label to stay in.
This CoffeeToothbrushCase includes a personal surprise. I have stitched this name over twenty years ago! It is from one of MyFirstCharbooks I've ever got. MyFather bought them from Helsinki and sent via old fashion postal service for Me up to the North. This design is from
Zweigart's Stick Ideen chart booklet
"Reinleinen-Stickbänder". Obviously the
order number is
7000/902.
Now, finally, after all these years this stitching has found its place. It was just perfect size for the personalized ToothbrushCase.
