The green one was my first go, and then formed a template for the rest. It was too small for the bottle.
So I came home, and got my one lonely cracker out left in the box from previous years, and wandered around the internet for some other ideas.
I decided I didn't like the idea of putting card 'sealed' within the fabric as thought it would be washable, but I didn't have anything other than iron on interfacing, I guess with more time I would have used something 'stiffer'.
I abandoned the idea of cardboard tubes all together, quite a few on the internet had them inside, but as I had some plastic bottles I used them. They were bigger, and tbh less of a fiddle.
I decided to make the middle more whole, and not spilt down the middle, and I have used some hook and loop, but only on the back. I also got some snaps and have added them.
Of course I had to make some hats too, these have some elastic at the back. I made a couple of sizes, in the hope I can wear one without it going over my eyes!
