Karin from Leigh Laurel Studios shows how you can make a reusable gift bag out of felt. The boxed bottoms and the body of the felt give them shape and allow them to stand up on their own, just like paper gift sacks. But unlike the paper sacks, these won’t look beat up after just a few uses. Her post is part of the Holiday Sewing Blog Tour organized by Jamie from Scattered Thoughts of a Crafty Mom. Go to Leigh Laurel Studios to see how to make her felt gift bags.
