Easter Gift Bags

March 27, 2011 By A Spoonful of Sugar - 31 Comments

Inspired by some lovely Easter ribbons and some soft gelati coloured muslin, I stitched up some gift bags for Easter.

I love relaxing Sunday afternoons.

    These are absolutely delightful, anyone would be so pleased to receive one of these!

    Sunday afternoons are great (as long as I have all the boring household jobs out of the way).

    I love your blog – when my children were little I made them an Easter Bag every year – they are grown up but still use their bags for all different uses. You have inspired me to make some more for this year.

    I know this is from a couple of years ago, but was wondering where you found the soft fabric you used. I googled it, but with no results except a link back to here. Thanks for any help you can give.
