[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 431557, member: 1233"] Hadn't thought of that. They could easily be given a drawstring so they were a pouch. the ones that are sold are expensive, at least the ones I have seen. Plus they are ALL with strongly stinky soap. This bar that made me sneeze was an anomaly in our home - we usually buy a generic version of dove or something else that has little smell. This one said hypoallergenic so husband thought it was unscented. I just did it because the kids loved hte little travel ones. It takes maybe fifteen minutes to make one with them sewn in permanently. Once the fabric is dried it takes maybe five min to take the stitches out of the top and another five to sew another bar in. I also have one I keep with my sewing stuff to stick needles into so they get a bit of soap to make them not stick on fabric. Trick I learned from my mom. That one is a tiny travel bar though. Next year my mom wants to do a craft booth at a specific show with items that are solutions to problems. These might fit in very well. I just REFUSE to sew them by machine, lol. I HATE sewing machines and they HATE me. Jess is magic with hers, but for me? It will NOT work. But by hand I do well, lol. I even have fairly even stitching - problem from all the years of cross stitching. [/QUOTE]
