2 hours of mother daughter fun sewing time with Little Miss made 12 bags.
She did the sewing she could do and I finished the parts that were to hard for her.
While I worked on the "hard" parts she used the leftover sleeves to cut the rag curlers she has been wanting to try.
Here is the t shirt bag tutorial I used.
I did find that the triangle step did make the bags look more finished and nice looking gift.
I also cut on the outside on the sleeve leaving the seam stitching of the sleeve for added stability. ( read this on another tutorial and found it looked as nice and and did add extra sturdy factor.
looked nice with polo shirts as well as t shirts.
I even made one with a sweathirt hooodie ( didn't do the triangle thing for that one to thick. The pocket on the front was super cute.)
Size wise I liked the xl boys or the small mens the medium men's was a bit big for my tastes but will still make a fine gift.
I am goin to make the made by tag and the washing instuction tags out of brown grocery bags and tie on with leftover Christmas curling ribbon.
I used outgrown or No way and I wearing that hand me down shirts.
Since all the sticking in on the inside I used the odd color thread that has been hanging on in the sewing box of a long while.
Cost of the presents $0 and some quality time with Little Miss.
