I have only made ones out of pre-quilted fabric, which I love and they have a huge variety at the shop near me.julieQhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00509047751868460895noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27429478.post-55978457717970101782009-01-15T20:44:00.000-05:002009-01-15T20:44:00.000-05:00It's going to come in very handy, I can already te...It's going to come in very handy, I can already tell.

I wished for a bag, one that had some tabs that would keep it from swinging back and forth as I moved around. That might be difficult unless you know the width measurement of a particular walker - I have no clue if that is a standard metric or not. Love your series of shopping bags, and the fleece instead of pellon was a great idea.<BR/><BR/>Liz in Central CT.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27429478.post-35364318877943541772009-01-15T09:28:00.000-05:002009-01-15T09:28:00.000-05:00I've made lots of bags for walkers, A few for my ...I've made lots of bags for walkers, A few for my mom and a bunch for the local nursing home. I'll send you a link. I used a layer of fleece in a couple of them, but then I discovered that using cheap fabric, you know, the kind that has so much sizing that it is stiff and doesn't even change when it is washed, was easier and much cheaper then using the fleece. I got 18 yards of cheap fabric at JoAnn's Fab. for $22 and made a bunch of walker and wheelchair bags.

I would definately use something to add a bit more stabilty to quilt weight cotton fabric- probably a fairly heavy weight interfacing. One thing you might want to add to your walker bag is a closure for the pocket if it gets folded and put in a car trunk. <BR/>Lois, also a Lutheran near Phil.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-27429478.post-21980309042787636092009-01-14T22:25:00.000-05:002009-01-14T22:25:00.000-05:00Once you start making bags, it's kind of hard to s...Once you start making bags, it's kind of hard to stop!<BR/><BR/>Love this one.Karenhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01634431465251641679noreply@blogger.com
