The teacher appreciation luncheon for our school is coming up and we were in need of favors for the teachers. Back in December I saw this tutorial from Creative Outlet Designs in a Sew Mama Sew round up and suggested that we could make these lavender scented wheat sacks for the teachers. You use them as hot or cold compresses by heating up the bag in the microwave or keeping them cold in the freezer.

100 lbs of bulgur wheat

8 yards of fabric

1.5 oz of lavender oil

75 yards of ribbon

73 eyelets, cards, and plastic baggies later, they are finally done:

Thank you to Kerry, Laura, Meg, and Kirsten for supporting me in my crazy crafting endeavors.

Now I just need suggestions how to get 100 lbs of inert mass from my apartment to the school. Any ideas?
