It is one of my grandchildren’s birthday- she’s going to be two. Now her Mum says she doesn’t need anything, she just loves unwrapping anything! But then she added, but if you have time to make some Snotties that would be great, she’s got a cold again. Sewing machine out then. For little sore noses you just need soft towelling and a soft fabric to suit. Cut to size, I find table mat size good. Sew two pieces of fabric together right sides together leaving small opening to turn inside out.Sew up small corner left. Invaluable, wash well, saves endless tissues too.All my GC have now and some are
on year three. Now as the machine is out it’s onto making wheat bags. Liverpool City FC and batman requests.love home made gifts and Poppy aged 3 declared her birthday snotties were her best present.
BBbevan me too and my daughters introduced me to that term. I remember using sleeves of my hand knitted cardigan. What a bad child I was.
My mummy always gave me a clean hankie every day and she made me a cotton hankie bag to wear across my chest to keep my hankie in.
I refused to wear it. And just carried on losing the hankies.
Sorry Mum! Really sorry! 
They'd be nice to put some olbas oil or Vicks on.
I once went shopping and left DH to peg the clean nappies out. He pegged out the dirty ones I’d wrung out ready to go on the hot wash. Eejit. I could see them all flapping in the breeze when I got to the end of the street. A Persil advert it was not.
