    I cheated, but it works! :lol: DH needed a new wrap so I bought a towel and wash cloth and made this one for him. I embroidered the pocket.

    Very nice. Did you use velcro for the fastener? I would love to make something like that for my husband.

    Thanks. Yes, I used a strip of wide velcro about 1 X 7. I put elastic in the back too.

    I folded over the edge and sewed my velcro on and inserted the elastic and stitched it down good so it wouldn't pull loose.

    Great job!
    Hubby used to have one, but tossed it the day that it fell off when he was standing at the door signing for a package. Good thing he was quick with the catch or the UPS man would have gotten an eyeful. lol

    Tirnhi, that is too funny. I had a neighbor who always came to the door in a towel. I was so surprised, his wife said, don't mind him, he thinks he's home in Trinidad. LOL

    I used to call her from then on, to come to my house instead. LOL

    What a great idea--I love the golf clubs. Why didn't your DH model it for you?
