I know you've all
I never realized the scorn I'd receive about some of the bread that comes into this house, and it looks like the comments (OK, only one so far) followed me to Moda Bake Shop too. The shame!! lol
I was supposed to have Fat Quarters from Moda to offer as a giveaway in conjunction with the MBS posting, but they seem to have been lost in the mail. I've been assured that at some point I will have them and I will offer them up to my readers at that time … and again open myself up to more bread flames. ;-)
Enjoy. (Or not.)
Thanks, Debbie. To each loaf, his own...
ReplyDeleteI really love your idea of the Bread Buddy. So nice of you to share!
Thanks Meredith. It's all in good fun. :-)
ReplyDeleteThat is a really great idea you came up with :) and well done on your recipe/instructions, very professionally done.
ReplyDeleteYou did a great job on it!! The bread is the most important part of my grocery trip. I was floored by one of the comments at Bake Shop. I think its totally genius of yoU!
ReplyDeleteHey, you know there's ALWAYS gotta be at least one (to complain, challenge, flame, etc). Thanks for sharing!
ReplyDeleteThanks, I like your new jacket. It's much cuter than the one Vogue used.
ReplyDeleteThank you for figuring out how to make this truly great invention! I HATE squashed bread. The tutorial is very well done. Thank you for that, too. I am definitely making these for gifts for Christmas. I can't imagine anyone who wouldn't want one.
ReplyDeleteTicks me off that someone would even think of writing to criticise the bread that you buy when the idea of protecting the bread (whatever bread!!!!) is the main point and such a fantastic idea.
ReplyDeleteGreat idea! Thanks for the tutorial. A Bread Buddy will soon be
ReplyDeleteproudly protecting my loaf of Bunny Bread on its way home from the store.
Genius!
ReplyDeletePersonally the only type of bread that has not been squashed at one time or another at our house is the soup bowls from Panera bread, They're pretty tough. Ignore the white bread remark, some people are perfect and never have squashed bread or broken eggs.........have you got a trick for that too? This was great!!! thank you !!
ReplyDeleteWould not flamed bread be considered....toast?
ReplyDeleteThanks for the lovely tutorial. I know just the folks who could use this as a holiday gift.
Thanks, Debbie. I'm off to get the tutorial. Maybe I'll skip the comments there because I think it is a great, inventive idea.
ReplyDeleteSometimes you just want Wonderbread and Twinkies. Who cares what anyone else thinks? If it's all healthy, it's all boring.
ReplyDeleteCute idea for the Bread Buddy.
This is the cutest thing ever!!
ReplyDeleteDebbie firstly I love this tutorial, fantastic idea. I was a little surprised someone actually took time out of their day to comment on your bread choices, and for the record even the "healthiest, grainiest, heaviest" breads can get squashed too.
ReplyDeleteTwo questions for you, the first is the first hems, are they on the 18 inch side or 19 inch side ? It says 19 inch side but on the diagram it looks like it was the 18 inch side. Does that question make sense ? Anyway, second question, do you have any problems with these being made to sell on our craft stall at our parish school fete ?
Thanks again for sharing, it's genius !
Best wishes from Australia,

Cute idea. My bread gets squished all the time too. Just wait until her kids grow up and refuse to eat anything but white bread. Ask me how I know.
ReplyDeleteThanks for the tutorial! I am going to make one of these...and probably one for my mom, too. Much like your kids...my dad complains about squished bread, too (and also refuses to eat anything but white bread).
ReplyDeleteDebbie, Great pattern, I sent an e-mail to your address but it keeps coming back....could you please send and e-mail to me and I can respond off it...I have a request please on your Bread Buddy
ReplyDeleteThanks...Karen

Thank you so much for a great tutorial. I thought I would leave my comment over here on your site instead of Moda. There is a minor error in the directions on measurements. Your diagram shows the guidelines drawn on the 19" length at 5", 9.5", & 14.5" which would only leave 4.5" for the last section. The outside sections are where you need the extra 1/2" to join the ends. With the sections being 4.5" each means the two outside ones need to be 5".
ReplyDeleteI really am not criticizing... your tutorial was wonderful. I made one this afternoon and it was a cinch... once I modified the guidelines to 5", 9.5", & 14".
What a wonderful idea for you bread! Thanks for this information. Great post!
ReplyDeleteI got a major kick out of all the bread police. LOL!
ReplyDeleteI was totally charmed by this project which I saw on Moda Bake Shop, and I made my own sort of version using all recycled/scrap stuff. Check it out on my blog here: http://gitdownkitty.blogspot.com/2010/12/pants-leg-bread-bag-tutorial-warning.html
So thank you so much for taking the time to write this up! I enjoyed it and linked to the MBS tut in my post.
