Hi Cuties, I decided to cut out and make the glove box envelopes. I bought this Oly cloth when I got the blue fabric, for the coat hanger safes. These are black, for the men gifts. It is hard for me to sew dark colors, especially after dark.

Have you ever seen those blue thin lightweight Walmart bags? They're made from Oly cloth. It's $1.47 a yard here. Best the fabric doesn't ravel or fray.

Ah, I've seen it on bolts at WM,but never looked at the info. Thanks.

I see JoAnn Fabrics calls it Oly*Fun. I do have some bags made of it, just a note to not put in washer to clean, it does get holes. --Bag now waiting for patch.

These are a great idea and great gift. How much fabric do they take? I saw some of this fabric on sale last week for 12 x 12 inch squares - 39 cents/square. I didn't know if this was a good deal or not.

I get 6 of these out of a $1.47 yard at Walmart. I haven't seen it in squares. I'm on my phone right now but I can give your my exact measurements tomorrow if you need them. Just let me know.
