A few weeks ago I bought a special tool that can cut complicated shapes in fabric. The fabric has to have bondaweb on the back but its a lot quicker than cutting by hand. I started cutting and before I knew it they were flying onto a reusable shopping bag. I then hand stitched around the starts which seemed like a good idea at the time but when I realised how tough the plastic coating was I was not so keen! I did 5 a day as my fingers got so sore!
Anyway it looks good now and just the right size for book bags, lunch boxes and swimming kit, not to mention a flute.. water bottles... coats.....

Sounds like a good gadget! I'm all for anything that saves time when cutting out. I like the handstitching on the stars.
