In less than two weeks, my copy-cat version of a neck-to-back heat pad was in need of mending. The serged edge closing the top of the bag opened and started spilling some of the filling. Since that happened until the time I found some free time to repair it, I went without. And that is how I ended up making three back-up neck-to-back heat pads.
The fabric is a medium-weight 100% cotton denim. It has been in the stash for years. The filling is what I would find on hand, a mix of rice and lentils. The fabric was previously pre-treated with a tumble in the washing machine and dryer. The pattern is a copy of the original Magic Bag.
