I needed a pill box holder to keep my medication from falling out in my purse. So I used an ITH tissue holder design and increased it to 110%. My plastic medication holder fit inside the zippered bag easily. Thanks for looking. Hugs, Joyce

When you increased the size do you do it for each step?? I am unsure how to do this for applique or ITH things--Very nice by the way--great way to carry med's on vacation.

The in the hoop (ITH) designs are wonderfully easy. If you get a chance go to the free section at www.fivestarfonts.com and download the small zip case. It comes with complete directions. I use the small case for so many things. When I bought the tissue case design, before I started stitching it I increased the size on the sewing machine from 100% to 105%. It will increase everything. Today I went to pick up some more plastic pill cases and couldn't find the same ones. I found one at Wal-Mart, but it wasn't the same, so I increased the design to 120% and it fit well. I will post a picture of the plastic case I bought at Wal-Mart.

I made a typo. The first one I did, I increased it to 110% not 105%.

There is nothing that says we can't change the size of these to meet our needs. This is a fantastic solution to the problem. Well done!

Be sure to read the rules (Terms and Conditions of use) for each website as some do not allow their designs to be re-sized. Some do not allow any changes at all.
by decojo 29 Jul 2015
Thanks Rescuer, I didn't know that. Unfortunately the website I purchased it at is no longer in business.

How nice! The little pill containers have a habit of popping open. Your zippered pouch will keep everything in order. Super idea!

Today I decided to get more pill boxes to put in zippered cases, and could not find the same ones. I did find this one at Wal-Mart for under a dollar. It is larger, so I increased the size to 120% and the plastic pill box fit easily it. Thank you everyone for your kind comments. Hugs, Joyce

Creative thinking to use a design for more than one purpose. It looks great.
