How We Use It: Fabric Tube Maker!

Hey all, it’s Shannon and Jason!

We love a good sale. Shocking, right? Seriously, the only thing we like more than a good sale is a good sale at the fabric store. It only takes minutes to fill up a cart with colors and textures and patterns…oh my. Next time you’re sauntering up to the checkout stand with a few quilts worth of fabric on bolts, take a gander behind the counter and you might catch a glance at a pre-cut jelly roll. Yes! Clover has done the hard work for you and cut coordinating fabric into 2.5” strips… They’re all ready to use! If you’re lucky, like us, those fab rolls might be on sale too… In that case, grab a roll or two (or three…) They come in handy! Especially if you happen to have Clover’s new Fabric Tube Maker. When we were first sent the tool from Clover, we looked it over and wondered if this was a tool that would really work as advertised. They said it made fabric tubes easy, but from past experience, we knew fabric tubes were notorious for being fussy and difficult and there was no way were we going to actually attempt a project out of fabric tubes. But we decided to give it a go so we could tell you all about it. Needless to say, we were impressed. Like REALLY impressed. We’d been putting off making rugs for around the house for YEARS now because we didn’t want to take the time to make the fabric tubes for one. As we said, fabric tubes were just too fussy for our liking and we didn’t want to take the time. But, enter the Clover Fabric Tube Maker. Now we have rugs for all occasions! We loved using the Fabric Tube Maker for this project. In fact we’d go so far as to say we’d never do another one without it! Clover, we thank you, and our floors thank you! Now…let’s show you how you can make your own jelly roll rug! 🙂
