Valentine Gift Bags

I decided to make cute little Valentine gift bags.


Here is the old bed skirt and what became of it.....

I used the seam ripper and brute force to undo the seams!  Such fun.

Iron and fold in half and iron again.


Re-purpose a Christmas card as a measuring tool.



Cut into desired widths.  My desire was to keep it simple...thus, the Christmas card.

I ironed a finished hem


A contrasting thread color was used.  Red of course, for Valentines Day!

Side seams sewn in white.

Got out my trusty pad and stamp....

Stamp away!

Some red string for a tie.






And look!  I even stamped the back!


 Cheers!
