~ from my home to yours ... ~
I love our little home, it's perfect for us! There's warmth and love within its walls and yes, mason jars, home preserved foods, herbs, books, WIP projects, lots of snuggly quilts, a swing on the front porch and a rocking chair nearby! We call it home and we call ourselves blessed. We give God the glory for He has had and continues to have His hand in it all!

Christmas 2021 #4: Small Draw String Bags

When I saw this video on making small draw string bags, I knew I wanted to make some, some as in at least 24.


This week as I 've had a few minutes to spare, I started cutting out the pieces ... 
the outer fabric
the lining fabric
jute string

Today, I started stitching them up and finished one completely.  
When making several of the same item, I like to do one from start to finish first, so I'll not only know what I'm supposed to do but also to determine if there are any shortcuts I can make. 


These are so cute and is something I can do in small snippets of time.

It's also a good way to use up scraps of fabric!

I plan to use these little bags for:

countdown to Christmas activities
small gifts
gift card holders

How would you use these little bags, the finished size is approximately 4 x 5 inches.
