A gift bag with a sewn casing and drawstring could hold smaller items,
although they can be made any size.
The bags work great for traveling, holding shoes or storage...
You can decorate the bag with a simple holiday motif,
make it scrappy, or from bleached muslin to store a stocking or quilt.
Or, how about a festive little zippered bag?
You can never have too many bags with zippers..
fabulous organizational tools!
Noodlehead has directions for some spiffy open-wide zippered pouches.
Zippered bags can come in all sizes and shapes.
Michelle Patterns has wonderfully simple directions for the two larger
Wouldn't it be sweet to find them nestled in the branches,
filled with treats or little poems?
They are easy to make...the tiny one is 1" smaller than her smallest pattern.
How about a basket to fill with goodies?
A Spoonful of Sugar has a great tutorial for gathered baskets.
She also has directions for three different sizes!
Thanks to this hop I have some wrappings ready...
