In the bag

 I've been working on a lot of things for Christmas. I know it's way early but it keeps me busy and if I procrastinate I'll never get things done. 

These are just a couple of the things that I've made.

Hot cocoa bags in two different sizes. The smaller ones hold packets of hot cocoa mix and the larger will hold the mix and a mug. These would also be good for holding candy or other small goodies


This is the small and the large size.

These are all the smaller size

Next up is a bag made from a Dollar Tree placemat. I simply folded it in half, sewed up the sides, boxed the bottom and sewed on ribbon for handles. I'll use these for gift bags but they could also be used for a small tote bag.

Sheer Genius on the placemat tote. It would be excellent for so many things year around. In the summer swimsuits. You know I love the colors...which are purrfect for Christmas too.
Hugs to you and Gibbs(as long as he doesn't have cob webs on his face)
