Monday Morning Star Count - Gift Bags and Week 3

I decided to use some of the orphan hexies I had to make some unlined gift bags. They could be regifted or repurposed by the recipients.  The bag fabric is kimono fabric.

  1. Great idea to use up those orphans and the bags look so nice. I'm using up orphan quilt blocks for some of the masks I'm making.
