Now that the world seems to be back on the road and in the air we have to worry about lost and look-alike luggage. But because you sew, you can fix that!
These fabric wraps for your luggage handle are so fast and easy you might not be able to stop making them. They are also a great way to use up both fabric and batting scraps.

These are the perfect little something for a trip, stocking stuffers, gifts for co-workers who travel and more. You can cut down on that fabric scrap and batting pile too! Want to earn some extra cash so YOU can go on vacation? Make and sell cute luggage handle wraps.

I used my August Fruit Toss fabrics that are part of the Monthly Placemat Program I designed for Riley Blake Designs n this tutorial.
I can’t wait to use this on my trip to see my first grand nephew in October – he’ll be 6 months old so I’m sure he will be impressed!
