Every Once in a While I Need a Quickie


Four reversible fabric bags I've made to use as gift wrap. 



I've made several chicken themed ones and mailed them off already. The bag can be used as a fabric grocery bag.  The contents of the chicken themed bags include at the least a chicken hot pad, chicken embroidered dish towel and crochet dish rag. 

The Super Heroes and Monster High bags will have gifts in them for the Grand Kids. 
Guess what the gifts are! 


I've made a few more pillowcases using the hot dog method.  One of the pizza themed ones will go to my youngest son who is 30.  I think his diet consists mostly of pizza so he probably really has pizza stains on the pillowcase he uses now.  There are just some things a mother doesn't really want to know. 

I've made everyone else's pillowcases throughout the year so the extra pizza and cookie cases will go into my gift stash box. You never know when you will need a quick gift.

those bags are just so cute! Are they hard to make? I am not any kind of "other things" sewer. Only ventured into table runners and mug rugs so far. Have a terrific weekend...hugs, Julierose
