I've a niece and nephew (twins) set to graduate from high school and move onto college. I decided to make them each a zip bag - something that they could take to college. I typically make these in their college school colors (or some facsimile) but I hadn't nothing in my stash that would work so I made these!
My nephew loves the outdoors - fishing, hiking etc. The fabric looks like tree bark!
My niece loves pastels - pinks especially. I found this fabric in my stash and spiced it up a bit with a brighter zipper.
Finally, couldn't help myself and made one more - this one for my sister. They are about to move a long distance and figured she might enjoy a bag for their trip.
I followed my tips for boxy bags. There is 2 layers of fusible batting so the bags have some structure.
Have a wonderful day!

Great gifts for the grads and the mom, too! Love that idea of the mother getting something for her travels during their college years.
ReplyDeleteThese are great! A great idea for students heading off to college. I really like the pink print and the top one looks very outdoorsy. I bet they will love them!
ReplyDeleteWhat wonderful, useful gifts!
