How to make a draft dodger.
A list of tools and materials that you will need are: a measuring tape, rotary cutter and scissors, decorative cotton fabric, iron, scissors, needle and thread, recycled newspaper cat litter, pins, and sewing machine.
First you will want to measure the width of the door or window. Then cut fabric that is 9 1/4 inches more than the width measured and 3 1/4 inch circles from the fabric.
Take the rectangular price in half lengthwise with the right sides facing each other. Now pin edges and sew along length of the open side with 1/4 inch seam which will make a long tube. In the middle of the tube leave a 4 inch gap in the stitching. You will backstitch at both sides of gap so that you can turn it right side out later. Press the tube flat with the seam in the center and press seam open.
Press the circles in half and in half again. Now baste the circles in place with a needle and thread. Remove the pins. Machine sew each of the circle ends to the tube 1/4 inch seam and remove the basting.
Now you will turn the tube inside out and fill with cat litter. Stitch opening closed with needle and thread.
This will help to make your electric bill smaller as it will keep the heat out in the summer and the cold out in the winter.
