That is a great idea. I've had the snap bag pattern for some time and didn't have a old tape measure to use.

Love this idea, thanks so much for sharing with us.

I cover the sharp ends of the metal tape measures with duct tape. This helps keep them from pushing through the fabric. Love to make the bags to match purses that I make from prequilted fabric. I get the tape measures for $1 at the Dollar Tree or other such stores where everything is $1.

great idea, thanks.

I always cover the ends with masking tape, won't slit fabric and is safer...I get the metal tapes at $ store for very cheap and lots there LOL

Our plastic mini-blinds often have the edge pieces breaking off. Will they crack and break after awhile in the little purses?

Oh Dear, is it me, guess so, what is a snap bag ? x

do a search in the search bar at top of page, snap bags, or snappy bags, there easy to make, and everybody on here has made them,

sorry, there not on there now,!! do the search on your home page, in the search space,. sorry again,

Could you please explain how you use the mini-blind slat again?
