Great for cold tiny fingers on those hot summer days!! My children love to play all day out in the sun, and enjoy the hot season. I love to be outside with them and listen to the giggling and squills that summer games will bring. Ice pops are always a part of our summer day, and my kids love them all...grape, orange and lime, they are always a hit. These fun easy "ICE POP COZIES" are a fun way to stay cool. This is a easy project that anyone of all ages and abilities can do. Simple for even your little ones. Hand stitch it or whip it through the sewing machine- Simple and fast! Here is what to do: |
 |
| Items that you will need: Fleece Scissors needle and thread or your sewing machine Tape measurer |
 |
| Cut your fleece to measure: 4 inches wide |
 |
| by 5 inches long |
 |
| Fold in half, (hotdog style) Sew raw edges with 1/2 inch seem If you are hand sewing over lap seems by doing a backstitch and if you choose to use your sewing machine a simple straight stitch will do. I, however, like to do a small zig zag stitch with the sewing machine. It allows for a little more stretchand won't pop stitches- fleece is a stretchy fabric and the zig zag stitch allows for pulling. |
 |
| Turn cozy right side out. Use fingers to flatten out seems. |
 |
| Slide in your favorite ice pop treat and enjoy the great summer days! |
As a grandma....I made these from your simple and "QUICK" pattern, I did not have any left-over fleece so I used a terry cloth towel from my kitchen drawer. After use I just put them in the washer with my other kitchen towels. Clever and ever so handy. Thanks for posting.......!!!
