Santa sacks
Mostly because I am lazy and greatly dislike wrapping any more Christmas gifts than absolutely necessary, I have made Santa Sacks for my girls. Then the presents can all go into them unwrapped – because the sack is one giant wrapper. Just helping out Santa, of course!
I used Christmas themed fabric from Lincraft bought early last year when it had gone on sale for a ridiculously low price after Christmas. Each has an appliqued initial.
S for Stella (and Santa):
C for Clare (and Christmas):
They close with a drawstring threaded through a casing in the contrast fabric. I didn’t use a pattern but just winged it when making these, which has resulted in them being rather large. Extremely large, actually. You get a better idea of how big these Santa Sacks are from this photo:
Yes, the girls fit into their Santa Sacks with room to spare. And after all, my girls are the perfect gift, Santa!
That is so sweet! They really are the most precious gifts 😀
Oh, my! Santa is going to have to come up with a lot of presents to fill those sacks!
Love the sacks, how big did you make them. looks like the fabric width plus a little on the top. Love them.
Nice sacks… but lurve the girls in sacks pic 🙂
Lovely Lara! I just hope the girls don’t expect them filled to the brim and buldging with gifts!!
What a great idea! And they are the perfect presents!! Wink, wink!
Seriously, now I think that I had better watch for those clearance sales on some wonderful new Christmas fabric! They would also be great just for keeping the presents together for delivery, or just to store until it’s time to put them out! Thanks for sharing!
Wow…they are big! Sweet photo of the girls in the sacks…have to pull that one out in years to come!
That last photo is fantastic Lara. I laughed out loud… and I agree that kids are a great present!
LOVE the sacks! What a great idea! So glad you took a picture of the girls with them so we could see how big they really are….marvelous!! You are such a good momma! 🙂
omg!!! that is super cute!!! 🙂
