Ice Pack

I finally got back to sewing this weekend by making an ice pack for the boy. He's been training for his 6th marathon and hurt his ankle a week ago. He's been icing it up every night, but would only put the bare ice pack on his leg. The suggestion of using a towel with the ice pack was shot down immediately. But I wanted to make an ice pack for him anyway. I knew it would be more comfortable.

Yesterday, I cut into an old towel (one that didn't match the rest of our gray set) and based the size off of the ice pack we had in the freezer. I happened to get some red velcro at the Crafty Swap & Beer from the previous week, so it was perfect. I put the velcro on both sides of the wrap so that you could just put it on without looking. It's just easier that way.

And... he uses it! Good.

Awesome! Glad the velcro came in handy!
