This will still be the opening of the gift bag, and I chose to close it using an alternative method.

Your tutorial however has me thoroughly confused, in particular with your instruction to "Cut the flap off an A4 envelope." I don't see this action portrayed in the illustrations and I don't understand how this would work. Isn't the "flap" of the envelope the part with the glue on it that closes the envelope? How would removing this piece make a bag without a large gap where that piece of paper was? Hope this question makes sense.

I’ve been playing with my Sampleit loom for a few months now and although I haven’t come up with any weaving equipment yet I am considering writing a couple of tutorials for spinning yarns that will work beautifully in woven items.<br /><br />There are files on Thingiverse that allow you to 3D print your own rigid heddle loom so I may make my own loom now that I understand the basics. Whether I go much beyond that, I’m not sure at this stage.Kathryn - Craftmehappyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01435122570408902584noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4293016146287530185.post-57160617064650383262023-08-01T09:42:32.455+01:002023-08-01T09:42:32.455+01:00I've just discovered your blog -- and it's...I've just discovered your blog -- and it's wonderful!
