YAY! Another project completed! I am on a roll!
A former coworker asked me to sew trick or treat bags for her baby daughter and baby nephew. They will be 6 months old at Halloween time. I had previously made these bags for Nicole's son and another cousin. Since these are for babies, I decided to make mini-bags for them to 'carry' this year.
The first bag I made is for the baby boy (sorry, I don't know his name). Two years ago, I belonged to Sweetwater's Label Crew Club and received some fun small projects...this was the October pattern. This little bag was just too easy and quick to make. It measures 5 x 5 x 2.5 inches.
The one for Cassie is just a simple little basket with a ruffle. ~grin~ I added fusible batting to this one, but I am not sure I like it. This bag measures 5.5 x 5 x 2.5 inches.
The Strawberry Pincushion Swap signups close today. I am really looking forward to working on that little project...but I have so many ideas floating around. Which one shall I use? I guess I will just have to grab one and run with it.
It's Friday! Funny, cuz when I worked, Fridays were a big deal. Last day to work for that week. Two days off. The weekend is here! Now, Fridays are not such a big deal. Because every day is like a weekend. Have I said lately how much I love being retired?
Have a great day!
"For I know the plans I have for you," declares the LORD, "plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.". Jeremiah 29:11

I am so glad you are retired too. Fridays are just the best day.
I love those little bags and I love that fabric with candy corn. I went and looked at your strawberry swap sight what fun is that. Jacque you find the nicest sights. Have a lovely Friday!

I detest Fridays..beginning of my work week!!! But this Thursday, dawling and I off on a holiday!!!!!!!!!
Those are really fun and a cute idea. I don't think Nicholas will need one this year.
