I realize I am several years behind, but does anyone know where I can find a tutorial to make a bah humbug bag?
Thanks,
Jo Ann

You mean a Christmas bag with a surly looking Santa Claus?

The bags use to be called teepee bags or pyramid bags. The pattern by those name are free online. Someone gave it a new name and started selling the pattern. It's the same thing. I made some using pre quilted fabric to carry my iron to classes. I also made them big to be overnight bags for my girls. .




Here is a free pattern. It's very easy to make.

Thank-you!!

Thank you for the tutorial!!!! I had it several years ago and lost it when my computer went down. I am going to print it out and have a hard copy this time.

Thank you so much. That's it exactly.

Thanks! That looks super simple.

Cute bag. Something else on my To Do list.

Funny, I've heard it called a humbug bag, but never a "bah humbug.!" Whatever it is easy and can be made in many sizes and used for many purposes. I was afraid of the zipper at first, but no problem. We made them for a community service project--filling them with little toiletries for women in a shelter.

Looks cute. Thanks for sharing!

Curious .... what does one use a teepee humbug bag for?

I add them to beach totes I make to keep sunglasses in. I attach them to tote with a cord or ribbon. I use one to keep my crochet hooks in too. It's easy to adjust the size.

made the right size, they are great for a small pair of scissors, extra needles and pins, thread, etc.; also make cut makeup bags.

Thanks all ... gotchya, they're basically whatever bags!

Could be for loose change too, by the sounds of it!

Good idea.

I love my Bah Humbug Bag and was just thinking about making another. They way they are twisted they stand out instead of laying flat and disappearing into the clutter. I use mine to keep the USB stick for my computer on my longarm in a safe and visible place. It cannot be replaced by just any USB. The Intelliquilter computer system needs the files on that USB to transfer update and design files to the computer that fits on my machine. All in all a very important Bag.

I think I'll show this to my daughter. It should be a fun project for her.
