Stitched with love by Peg

love those little fabric envelopes wonder will they hold a candy or money. if its the second um.. she needs one more to send to me!!! lol adorable little pockets and good luck selling more for the future holidays! make a bunch for a craft fair for Christmas! I know your saying CHRISTMAS? having done Christmas craft fairs starting in fall is like.. late. you want to do them when you have energy and are not rushed yourself with all things coming for you. so do them before and sell them then. Are you putting velco for closing them on? or is it a button??

Those envelopes are adorable!!! Is it your pattern or did you find it somewhere. These would be great for giving giftcards on birthdays and Christmas. Love to know how to make them.

Thanks all! Making some more today. Elisabrat, I am going to do a button and loop I think. I tried to sew the loops in as I went, but they kept getting off center or pulling through the seam, so I said forget it! I'll deal with it later. Hmmm...I think "later" had arrived.

Jeanne, I used this tutorial, but just didn't make them into the bunting it suggests:
