Recycling for test-stichs

There is an easy way to make a nice small heatpad out of a test-stitch (HoHoHo- christmas is coming ;o). When the design is complete I lay a second piece of fabric on the design (upside down!) and use a simple frame with an opening to turn it inside-out later. Take it out of the hoop cut it in shape (important at the corners) and then turn it inside>out. I fill them with wheat or for babies with grape-pipes (lighter and smaller). Cherrypipes are to big for the pads in my hoop (5x7) but will work for bigger hoops.
Greetings, Bettina
