Several years ago I started making fabric gift bags. (I hate spending all that time wrapping and then have it torn off and thrown away in seconds.) They get passed around from year to year. I think there are some Christmas gift bags that have been around for abour 12 years now. My grown kids have even called and requested a certain size. I just need height, width, and depth to figure out how big to make them. I've done birthday gift bags that have then been used for marbles, hot wheels, and pj's for overnighters. One daughter loves using the pretty paper, anyway. But mine always comes in a bag. I purchase Christmas fabrics at the after Christmas sales.
