Sewing Reusable Birthday Present Gift Bags
Hello friends,
Recently I finally got around to sewing some reusable birthday present gift bags.
A couple of years ago I made a big bunch of reusable bags for wrapping Christmas presents, so that there was no longer a deluge of wrapping paper every Christmas day. I've been meaning to do the same with reusable birthday present gift bags, but I was being lazy, and I hadn't found the perfect fabric for the project.
About two months ago I found this birthday fabric at Spotlight, and brought 1 m to make some bags. I also bought some Homespun white cotton fabric to line the bags on the inside. I have a bunch of ribbons in a box at home, so I just delved into it until I found the perfect ribbon to tie up the bags.

I have a reusable gift bag set pattern I use for work at my online textile store, Hearth & Oak, so I used that to quickly whip up three birthday gift bags.



I'm really pleased with how the birthday gift bags have turned out, they look really pretty, and they will be used for birthdays for years to come. And now I no longer have to scramble around searching for appropriate birthday present wrapping paper to wrap birthday presents for family, when I can just pop them into a bag and be done with it.
Have a wonderful day
