Fabric party bags

I got an idea in my head that this year I would make fabric party bags, because I don't really like the plastic ones.

Last year we had paper party bags, which were alright, but not wow. My idea is that the bag is part of the gift too, not that the kids ever really care about the party bags, it's just a token.

So bearing all that in mind, I used some gingham that I had left over from a skirt I made last year to make little shopper style party bags.

Homemade fabric party bags

The flower on the front is made from my huge stack of unused patchwork fabric, that I cut out and tacked together with embroidery thread. I didn't want to take a huge amount of time and effort just in case they were taken home and straight into the bin.

Next, working on a little something different for the boys.
