I'm drawn to charm packs. I love to look at them, touch them, sort them out and play with patterns using them. Sure, I could easily cut my own squares; I have the tools, but something about the charm pack is so easy and perfect--the right colors and patterns pre-cut and selected so I can get right to work.What do we do with the Charm Pack? So many crafters have ideas. I even have a couple:).
1. Make a scarf. . . sew your favorites together in a string, back it with linen, flannel or fleece and you have a colorful scarf and depending upon your backing it can be for any season.
2. Make a belt. . . sew your favorites together in a string, iron them in half and then the halves onto themselves, top-stitch and add your d-rings. Super easy and fun.
