I needed to create ten treat bags for an upcoming birthday party and procrastinated until the nite before. I had a bit of an assembly line set up. They took about 2 hours from start to finish for all 10. I think these can be made for both boys & girls depending on the fabric! The kids loved the reusable bags. Each bag is:


6 charm squares, ribbon for the drawstring.


Instructions (hopefully these make sense)

-sew 3 charms squares together in a row
-cut the row in half down the middle charm
-re-arrange & re sew into small panels
-make two panels for each side of the bag
-face panels rights sides together
-sew around the perimetre, leaving 2 inches from the top on each side unsewn. Clip corners
-iron the top sides 1/4 inch back & sew – which will finish the edge of the casing nicely
-Optional – I folded the tips of the corners, iron, stitched, and cut the corner tips off to create a box bottom.
-pull ribbon thru the casing
-FILL WITH CANDY & ANYTHING ELSE.
