Sylvain Bergeron at WeAllSew needed to make a wrap of some kind to protect his rolled-up art quilts to take to a lecture, class, or event. He had been using a heavy plastic bag designed for fabric rolls, which worked relatively well, to a point. A bag has a set size and it could become too small (too tight) or too big (too loose) if he rolled up too many or too few quilts together. So he opted to make a "wrap", a flat piece of fabric with ties to cinch it just right (but not tightly) for whatever size of roll he had to protect. Think of it as a soft protective tarp.
