  • These simple fold-over gift bags can be re-used year after year, or make great storage for hair accessories, cosmetics or sewing notions! The fabric I’ve used here is my Gingerbread Biscuits Christmas fabric available from www.debbirshore.... Don’t forget that Half Yard Sewing Club members receive a 10% discount
    For my large bag I used:
    Two pieces of fabric each measuring 14” x 9.5” [36cm x 24cm] bottom fabric
    Two pieces of fabric each measuring 14” x 8.5” [36cm x 21.5cm] top fabric
    28” x 18” [72cm x 46cm] lining fabric
    28” x 18” [72cm x 46cm] fusible fleece [H630]
    Two pieces of 8” [20cm] ribbon
    Measure 2” [5cm] from the corners to box the base
    My medium bag:
    Two pieces of fabric each measuring 10” x 9” [26cm x 23cm] top fabric
    Two pieces of fabric each measuring 10” x 6” [26cm x 115cm] bottom fabric
    20” x 15” [51cm x 39cm] lining fabric
    20” x 15” [51cm x 39cm] fusible fleece [H630]
    Two pieces of 8” [20cm] ribbon
    Measure 1.5” [4cm] from the corners to make square
    The small bag in the video:
    Two pieces of fabric each measuring 8.5” x 6.5” [22cm x 17cm] top fabric
    Two pieces of fabric each measuring 8.5” x 4.5” [22cm x 12cm] bottom fabric
    17” x 11” [44cm x 23cm] lining fabric
    17” x 11” [44cm x 23cm] fusible fleece [H630]
    Two pieces of 8” [20cm] ribbon
    Measure 1.5” [4cm] from the corners to make square

    I’m Australian, and I just love your voice. I wish you’d do an audio book! Today I made your twisted infinity scarf. You’re right it was so easy.

    You’re my hero this year! I’m making your crossbody bag (the one with the cute doggy fabric) and putting it under the tree in this sweet gift bag.
    Thank you for being so generous.

    I like the trick of ironing the shape to the fusible ,then cutting out. Always taught to cut everything out then ironing or sewing interfacing to project. Love your video's 😊

    This would be so good to use up scraps and offcuts to make a patchwork fabric. Another brilliant idea. Thank you so much for your time and effort ❤

    Hello Debbie, thank you for another tutorial.
    I wonder if you've ever considered doing a tutorial about all different types of stabilisers etc.
    The choice is quite bewildering and it would be great to see each product displayed and the differences highlighted. A bit like a show and tell.
    Thanks again for all your generous content.

    Thanks for this video. I love the idea of replacing single use wrapping paper with reusable bags but, having given a (silk) drawstring bag to a friend who described it as a 'pump bag from school' (are you kidding?!), this style might get a better response.
    And for the ecowarriors, I volunteer in a charity shop and all my fabric comes from its 'ragbag' so no new fabric is harmed during the process.

    Here in Australia Christmas time is summer time I love these bags and am commencing sewing them immediately however I am unable to find the measurments for the 3 sizes.

  • @cherylkindle4497
    @cherylkindle4497 Před 2 lety

    Could this be a fat quarter project as well with coordinating fabrics? I love this! You explain it so well and it is something I would definitely make!😁💖

  • @mariebellanca6806
    @mariebellanca6806 Před rokem

    On the large bags, you have the measurement for the bottom piece larger then the top piece. Is this incorrect?
