All men are created equal then a few become soldiers. This is a toilet paper cover. I made the photo before I put the celo cover on it so you could see it better. Kay

Oh, they are so easy to cut. I use felt which I purchase from Joanne's remnant bins. I cut 17.5 to 18 inches x4.5 inches. I discovered that each brand of toilet tissue paper is slightly different. these measurements will fit the largest and you may need to trim a bit for the smaller ones. Designs that are for the 4 in hoop fit well or rotate some to fit as long as the design is not wider than 4.5 in. I find that plain fusible interfacing works well. I use my 6x10 hoop and only hoop the interfacing. I lay the felt across the hoop and use pressing cloth to fuse with an iron. The stitches don't pull in on the felt when it is bonded and not hoop burns on the felt. a long time ago , I used to use Velcro to fasten back , but i now use double sided sticky tape. then i slide into cello bags that i buy from Michael's and tie the top with craft ribbon. hope this helps.

19439Very nice. I've embroidered on toilet paper and keep saying I need to start making covers instead but just haven't yet ... this has given me inspiration. Thanks and again, great job! (I run a non profit horse rescue and always trying to come up with things for fundraisers).

Would be a great idea. I buy the felt in the remnant bins at Joanne's. lately, i remember seeing words" Your stable or mine?" on something. I remembered it because i like stuff like that!!! You may use it. See what you can come up with. maybe a horse head and the words?
