brown bag project
 
Our quilt guild has a brown bag project. We put 3 fabrics each 1/2 yd. in a bag. Then exchange them. We are to make something quilted from the fabrics for the person who owns them. Then in Nov. we bring the finished project back to guild meeting to them. My bag I chose has Christmas fabrics. I would love to hear your ideas on any small projects.
Thank you Fran

Wall hanging; banner for the front door; table topper; bowl or box for holiday treats.

How about looking through the MSQC Christmas tutorials?

I like GailG's idea of fabric bowls or boxes. They're fun to make and useful too.

pot holders or a table runner would be things I would use

Sounds like a really fun thing to do. Hope you have fun. Table Topper, Zipper bag

thanks for the great ideas. I looked on Missouri Star. I like the bowl and door panel idea. Do you have any favorite web patterns or tutorials.

Can you add more fabric? If yes then a welcome door/wall hanging containing a snow theme with foot prints in black representing you know who.

A fairly new quilt group I belong to is doing this with the results due in Nov. The owner of the brown bag I chose wanted a tote or table runner. I used a strip from a panel of women shaped like vegetables where the colors matched the 3 fabrics and made a tote. I did post a picture a couple of weeks ago. Anxious to see the owner's reaction.

I made these table toppers that were quick and easy. I challenged myself to make them all slightly different. NOW I am trying to figure out what to do for this year.
