Handsewn Holiday Gifts and Projects
November 4, 2008 in Handmade
Holidays by Hand has started this week at Simple Mom with a variety of handmade sewing projects.
My project is the simplest drawstring bag possible, made a little more unique with a vintage monogram. I can picture a few of these hanging as ornaments on the Christmas tree. Maybe they’d be a good place to hide some chocolate or secret messages.

Instructions: Embellish Your Sewing Project With a Vintage Monogram
Next week I’m hosting your holiday projects made with paper! I love the ideas I’ve seen so far. Send me your link by November 10 to have your project included in the festivities.








Very pretty! I love the colour!

It looks, too, like it can be customized/changed easily- varying your material and monogram. And who doesn’t like a monogram??? (Except for your average 18-year-old male college student, that is)…
Very nice!!

The bag is lovely! I was thinking of monogramming some cloth napkins this year – I’m inspired by this beautiful stencil.
