Hello Cuties! Here is my Santa sack! I made two, one for each of them. I just hung their big name tags I made for each sack on this one, as I didn’t have anymore boxes to put in another sack. Their last name is on the back (not shown) And I surprised myself for lining it up so good. I enlarged the outer shape to fit my 5x7 hoop. I added a 3/4 inch oval for a hole to run a ribbon or twine.
I hope mom will take a picture when ‘Santa’ leaves them under their tree. All their gifts will be in each of their sacks. Mom will decorate it up real good, I’m sure , because I always hate to mess up the wrappings when she gives a gift. Right now they look pretty plain. This fabric as I said in Community were curtains that were being discarded. I also made these name tags from the fabric. Hope you like!-Toogie
Your post makes me think about all the boxes I get from Amazon...Just wrapping up empty boxes and stacking them would make a room decoration!
This means there were only 3 panels or width of fabrics sewn together. So no matter how I put my tube, right sides together, I wouldn't have sides seams. Front is one width, plus guessing maybe 8 or 9 inches of 2nd and 3rd panels at sides. The back has a seam down the center.
Using this fabric is very forgiving as the seams don't show much. I don't know if it's because of the color or the texture of the fabric. The fabric is thicker than unbleached muslin but not as thick as a painter's drop cloth. I'm not sure the fabric content.
Kids make Christmas fun.I'm glad you have nice memories.
