I have an idea for another Christmas swap. I’ll plan on posting it closer to October but wanted to give people a head’s up.
Santa’s Sack Swap
make your partner 1 reusable gift bag
Fill the bag with
1 medium crafted item
2 small crafted items
2 purchased sticking stuffers

Sounds fun! Will see what my commitment list is like in October. I really like re-usable fabric gift bags.

I am IN! It’s like a stocking swap without the stocking! I have no where to put a stocking, and tons of holiday cheer already, so this is perfect.

I enjoyed the old stocking swaps from craftster but I just don’t need any more stockings. Gift bags would be useful though.

Interested! A sack can ship flat, makes it easier to-and-from and, let’s be honest, within Canada

Ooh, this sounds fun. But I am at four swaps… which is more than I’ve had in years. I am going to set back and see how these pan out…

I’m so bad, I just can’t resist … post it notes, Christmas stickers, maybe even bows because they are sticky
I’ll go to the corner now.

That fold over one maybe doable! I’m going to give it a try also. We’ll see which comes out the best… I haven’t sewn in ages! Good project to get back into it. Thank you!

Our tradition (started by my mother) is just to make super basic bags in fun fabrics, and then tie them shut with a piece of lace or chunky yarn, so no built-in closure needed.
