sewing series: holiday gift sack



Skip out on the paper holiday bags this year and join us in the studio this December for a fun, festive sewing class to make a reusable fabric gift bag. Students will choose three coordinating prints to make an oversized holiday gift sack. These lined drawstring bags are eco-friendly, fast to make and are a great stash buster.  The pattern offers eight different sizes; students will making the large size in class (referred to as the laundry-sized bag in pattern).  The finished dimensions of the large bag are 26" H x 11" W x 6" D.
