These pant legs were just too cute to throw out. They will make a great Bag for a Birthday Gift.
1-With the cut off pant leg cut a piece of fabric 5 inch wide x the length around the "top".
2-Fold in 1/2 and iron.
3-Then fold both sides into the middle and iron.
4-Pin it around the "top"
5-Sew a decorative or straight stitch around the top and bottom of fabric band.
6-Turn inside out and sew up the bottom.
7-To sew the side "divits" fold bottom corner into a triangle and sew across.
8-This is what the "divits" will look like from the outside.
9-Using a pull thru tool (safety pins work just as well) pull the ribbon thru the opening in the side.
10-Now just add some personal touches & you are ready to give a great gift! Pin It
What a great idea! Love it!

Thanks ladies!
ReplyDeleteSo, so, so CUTE!!
ReplyDeleteNow I just need to swipe the grandkids pants and build some bags.
Jody-good luck with that! But you can also go to the second hand stores/garage sales to pick up some great deals.
ReplyDeleteA thoughtful gift does not always have to be handmade, especially when practicality matters too. choosing a leather laptop bag can be a useful option for someone who carries a laptop daily, particularly when it has a padded compartment, enough space for accessories, and comfortable carrying features.
ReplyDeleteBirthday gift bags can be even more useful when they include practical items suited to the celebration or group activity. For outdoor gatherings, customized high visibility vests can be a thoughtful addition for organizers or helpers, with options such as logos, reflective printing, embroidery, woven labels, and branded packaging. read more about custom safety vests and the different options available for organized events.
