Bath Mitts

Take a washcloth – preferably not a real thick one.  The 1.50 ones at WM are fine or the ones that come in a bunch.  Cut the tag.  Fold it long ways and sew.  Turn so the seam is inside and then fold down so it makes a pocket for your hand.  Sew on each side.  On one side sew a piece of a shoe lace so it can hang in the shower.  You can decorate the washcloth before you begin – lace or ribbon on the outside at the bottom where the inset is on the cloth or leave plain.  I found some at Family Dollar and Dollar General for 1.00 each that had a colored band at the bottom.  These are great graduation gifts too.  I just sold a bunch at a craft sale.  You can add soap inside too.

Pillow Cases

I was jsut at a craft sale and a girl sold a ton of pillowcases for kids made out of santa, snowmen or kid fabric.  She put a colored band at the end or just all one piece of fabric.  Some had a strip sewed at the end where the end is made like a cuff and around the case – and she cut the strip into pieces - like a rag quilt.  they sold like hot cakes.
