I used the flat sheet from her toddler bedding(she doesn't use it) and I got 3 panels from it and then used a coordinating solid pink crib sheet, when elastic is removed, yields 3 more panels. Perfect and it didn't cost me a thing! Next project: make one for my son out of his favorite Thomas the Train bedding!Tarahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08108344077655014643noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3144832544285126067.post-82464784781476994922014-01-14T10:13:34.742-05:002014-01-14T10:13:34.742-05:00I am not seeing the pattern attached to they instr...I am not seeing the pattern attached to they instructions any more :( Is there any way that could be attached again?Heathernoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3144832544285126067.post-77469903926837940152014-01-06T10:24:07.799-05:002014-01-06T10:24:07.799-05:00Use a 5/8” seam allowance unless otherwise noted.Use a 5/8” seam allowance unless otherwise noted.MMFhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00375594391919581945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3144832544285126067.post-52548659301039943122014-01-06T10:19:15.923-05:002014-01-06T10:19:15.923-05:00If you would like to download the Bean Bag tutoria...If you would like to download the Bean Bag tutorial with the pattern pieces, please click on the bean bag image on the scroll bar on the right hand side of the blog's homepage.MMFhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00375594391919581945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3144832544285126067.post-17989612896179007462014-01-06T10:16:33.271-05:002014-01-06T10:16:33.271-05:00This comment has been removed by the author.MMFhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/00375594391919581945noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3144832544285126067.post-24264494610523373842014-01-04T17:39:00.317-05:002014-01-04T17:39:00.317-05:00when I download the child size tutorial it says th...when I download the child size tutorial it says the pattern is at the end but I don't see it on the last page of the pdf.

Or just use it unpopped? Popping it would make it greasy, and I'd be concerned for several reasons about using it unpopped. Especially for kids. If they're young, either way could be a choking hazard. I'm not generally *super* concerned with things like this, but it's something to think about. Also, being a texture-y sort of person, I've noticed that the tapered end of popcorn kernels can be really poky. So, I'd be somewhat concerned that it would poke through the fabric and be uncomfortable. And besides that, I'd be afraid that the thing would be so heavy no one could move it. I mean, once something full of popcorn gets as big as a beanbag chair, you have to think that it might be quite like hauling a bag of feed corn or something. Which would lead me to question whether or not I'd want to sit on a bag of feed corn. HOWEVER... if you're not concerned with the weight, feed corn may be a better idea than popcorn kernels. Or even beans. I wouldn't use rice, though, as I've found it can be tiny enough to slip through stitching sometimes.<br /><br />SO.. of course you should use your better judgement on this, but you might consider some different options.<br /><br />I was reading somewhere that someone stuffed their beanbag with old packing peanuts, as well as fabric scraps and old pillow stuffing. So, you could just look around the house and reuse, reuse, reuse. Something that could be cheap as well as environmentally friendly?<br /><br />Hope you're able to figure something out. :Dcatiehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02993428214810042164noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-3144832544285126067.post-29771390732255767412011-07-02T02:23:19.501-04:002011-07-02T02:23:19.501-04:00Hi.
