Happy, scrappy gift bag

by Nancy

I just finished getting a Christmas package ready to mail to Germany, which involved making a gift bag for Martha from some very cute light purple snowman fabric. I am pretty sure I received the fabric from another crackpot, possibly Marty, either as a gift or as part of a fat quarter exchange. Does anyone recognize it? Well, after the gift bag was done, I had some scraps of the purple snowman fabric left. It wasn’t enough for a whole gift bag on its own, but I had some scraps of white snowflake fabric that I had used for the bag lining, so I combined the two and came up with this:

one side


second side

I haven’t made a lining yet for the bag. I think it needs one because the white fabric is a bit thin, and there are lots of seams on the back. The lining might just be plain white, or maybe something scrappy will present itself.

P.S. Pictures were taken with my phone, uploaded from there to the blog, and then I wrote my post on the computer. Much quicker than getting out the digital camera, taking a picture, downloading it to the computer, and then uploading it to the blog!
