I swear I have done many craft projects this but somehow this is 3??? Anyhow in efforts to stick within our budget for Christmas I need to make some gifts. I started these as a gift for jones's teachers at school. I was thinking I could fill it with other handmade items like cookies, Carmel corn, ornaments by jones etc.
I followed the pattern available for free on Craftsy. It was a terrible mess! Took me two hours I had to do seam ripping and I didn't use interfacing so it's floppy. My next attempt I subbed in leftover batting for interfacing and didn't follow the directions instead I just did what I remembered working. This second one is much better. And it took like 45 minutes. I need to make one more but I am now out of this leftover houndstooth and trying to decide if I cut into my fancy Japanese fabric or use some other duck cloth I have on hand that is a directional print??? Agh decisions.

Good note on using interfacing instead of batting. I would have probably opted for batting too. These are on my to do list.
