But then recently at a car boot sale there was a lady selling off the entire contents of a seamstress's sewing kit and she sold me a large tub full of those things for a few pounds. I was over the moon. But sadly I have no idea where a cheap supplier is -maybe eBay - one of the Chinese sellers?<br /><br />Still haven't tried to use them though - I don't know how - must sit down and try.<br /><br />Fabby fab backpack and you've made it look so easy to do - so blimey another thing for my To Do list because I could use something like that for lugging around my charity shop loot. :)Wendyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14257653410136495378noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3532409850252086723.post-72511214481899615462012-09-06T19:52:41.161+01:002012-09-06T19:52:41.161+01:00Very cute ... love the fabric ...
