Here’s a noteholder I made from the Easy Felt. I stitched the design on one piece of felt, stitched a large button hole for the notepad to go through, then stitched the pen holder in place. Lastly I took the piece to my sewing machine and stitched it to a second/larger piece of Easy Felt. I added the holder so a dowel would go through. I love the way it turned out.

The design is Old Bat Out on the Town by Frugal Nana

I made this gal into a potholder… more to look at than to use. However, the backside is quilted teflon material, just in case. The design is Frugal Nana’s Old Bat Lounger

This is a water bottle holder or carrier. It fits the standard 600ml water bottle.
A layer of batting is attached to the outer bag and the bag is lined with towelling. Cord is threaded into the casing and a toggle attached. This bag will keep a cold bottle of water cool all day. The designs are from:
