Holiday Gift Bag Supplies: Holiday fabric-18” x 27” Ribbon-2 pieces (1/2” x 27”) Pins Safety pin Water soluble marking pen Scissors Directions: Fold fabric in half lengthwise, cut in half at the fold. Place right sides together. If you have a directional print be aware of the placement of the fabric. Make sure both pieces go in the same direction. Pin together. Using the water soluble pen, measure and mark 2 inches down from the top. This will become the casing for the ribbons. Using a straight stitch and quarter inch seam allowance, sew together the left side than the right side starting at the mark to the bottom of the bag. Next, stitch a straight line from one end to the other at the bottom of the bag. Overcast all straight seams encasing any loose fibers. To create the casing, at the top, fold in ¼” on the side seams. Finger press. Fold down from the raw edge, 1” than fold again 1”. Using a straight stitch, sew the casing at the fold line furthest from the top, leaving a 1” casing. At the very top of the casing, using a straight stitch and a quarter inch seam allowance top stitch both sides of the casing. Turn right side out. Use the safety pin to guide the ribbon through the casing by pinning it to one end of the ribbon. Guide it through both sides of the casing. Tie a knot on the ribbon ends to secure together. Repeat this step in the reverse direction with the remaining ribbon. This will give you two pull handles to gather the bag top to close.
