a very big shout out of thanks to Sue for creating this. When going on holiday most of the times we see black suitcases LOTS of BLACK sew ours is green & easy to pick out amoungst the black. But this last trip we took there were more green! It was a challenge to pick ours out, sew I asked Sue if she could create a handle wrap for me & this is the design that she came up with! I love it & I did it in neon green fabric sew it would POP & be easier to see.

I think another great use for this would be :when carrying those plastic grocery bags with somethiing heavy in them or when you have to walk with them the plastic will cut into your hands & it is not very comfortable sew wrapping this around the handles would go along way to make it more comfortable & you could wrap more then one bag handle with one of these 2! way to go Sue

Great idea you both tagged up a great helpful project. I would even put a layer of batting in for the heavy carry would give that extra cushion for handles. Love the neon green. You should not have problem finding.

I did just that ;0) I figured it would make it softer with the batting inside & Sue said the same lol great minds think alike Mary thanks, hugs loralye

Perfect color to be able to spot your luggage. This will also be great on the bags that have two handles that don't hook together.
