We've expanded our crochet-designs to larger extend, and look what we've got: Gift bags!

These are going to be presents for our friends & family this Christmas and during the Advent season (filled with the deco-stars). We are planning to do ones with different designs (stockings, trees, rendeer, more snow-flakes...), but as always, time is too limited for all :c)

Your new Crochet Gift Bags look wonderful.
Thank you for sharing these new designs with us as free downloads on your website!

Did you line the bags with material before you stitched them together?

Thank you for the designs!

Hi. We've put a little text-file in the download, but in short: We stitch two sheets on soluble fabric, cut both pieces out and sew them togehter like one would to make a bag/pillow out of ordinary fabric. (Of course the thread-lines have to be connected!) Once the "bag" is finished, we dissolve the stabilizer-fabric, let it dry well, iron it (only when it is really dry!), and finish it with a nice ribbon...

Hi, simply because we've never put them on so far ;c)
Although they may well end up on our site at some point, it's not likely that this will be anytime soon. Most probably not before this Christmas. However, it never hurts to check our site once ever so often, as we do put up things as we work along and we are not always "announcing" things on Cute aftwards. Not enough spare time to do a homepage, comment on (various) forums AND do the actual embroidery :c)
(We are both full-time employed in a very different branch...)

We are likely to make some more bag-designs soon, so we thought we make a little "voting" experiment. We've several patterns we're thinking of trying out, which one would you like to see the most?
- a candle
- a (small) Xmas tree
- stocking
- a rendeer

We are also eager to get suggestions (in form of small x-stitch patterns or "pixelated" images). If we like them for ourselves (-so that we use them-), we'll return the design as freebie on our site.

Thank you for the new free Candel Bag designs.

One done with a reindeer would be nice.

And another suggestion would be to do bags with other types of designs that could be used any day of the year for special gifts.
Perhaps one with a flower for Ladies and something else for a Men.

Thank you again for the lovely designs that you share with us!

This is defenitly a plan! If somebody has very specific nice design ideas (usually small x-stitch patterns work fine), email us!
by bejoscha 27 Nov 2010
Just to make it clear: We don't need suggestions for motifs, but rather an image showing which of the crochet-squares are "filled" which are empty. Small black-white images work perfectly for that. As do pictures of hand-made x-stitch embroidery. The main thing is: There are only FEW "crosses" possible and it has to be a small pattern.

We are sure that the hand-made ones are very special as well!
