Whatever Wednesday: Place mat bags

December 29, 2010 by Kaysi 7 Comments

For Christmas, my mom made all of my kids these super cute bags. She took a place mat, folded them in half and sewed the sides together. Then she added ribbon for the handles and cute embellishments in the front. My boys love them!! They carry them around with them and put their toys in them. So fun!

All three boys got the same design, with different ribbon. So I thought it would be cute to put their names on them. So using my Silhouette and black heat transfer paper, I put their names on them.

I love how they turned out!!

    Great idea and so useful! Teaching myself to sew this year–this would be a good project. Hopping by from the blog hop.
