I am making some Pennie Pockets for some friends of mine. These are very fun but very addictive to make!!

I made some of these for door prizes for quilt class. I put a few notions in each one. they were a big hit.

Those are adorable, it is no wonder that they were a big hit!!!! :D :D :D

I used to make these we called them May baskets to hang on a neighbors door with seeds and such in them.

Looks alot like the May Day baskets we used to make/

Really cute!

Those are cute,a bunch would be nice to hang in your sewing area to keep odds and ends in :D

Thanks all. May baskets is what I thought of too the first time I saw them.

We called those May baskets in MN when I was little. Put all sorts of goodies in them and left them at our friends doors and ran~~ Love your Pennie pocket and the way you embellished it with the beads and yo yo. Very cute!

I see your from NW MO. Just drove through the NW corner last week and stopped at a cute quilt store in Kearney called Sew Bee It. Picked up a few cute fabrics for my stash!

Penny Pockets! Now, isn't that a clever use of embellishments, and practical hanging gift with beauty, inspiration, and some gifts without spending $$$ tons!
Your friends are going to really enjoy your thoughtfulness!

I cannot download the pattern for the pennie pockets. Help! :?

Try this one, go to the bottom and it will say printer friendly version. It's is the same pattern as the one I used, just by Moda. I used that one too both just alike.
