    This was my first attempt at the snap bag. I did put darts at the bottom to create a 'bottom' ... I'm not completely happy with the stitching at the top and plan on adding some embellishment to cover it.

    I want to make more for my 3 granddaughters and a large one for myself.

    (they are super simple - one yard of front, one yard of back, embroider name, stitch right sides together, turn right side out, stitch again, done!)

    Here are pictures of my finished projects:
    Very cute!!! Great job!!!

    I love your hanging. It would also look good as a table runner and place mats. Do you have a pattern for this? Would you post it, or the instructions? I would love to make it.
