Halloween Felt Treat Bags
I found this in All You and thought it looked fun and fairly easy.
* Templates (download pumpkin template or cat template)
* Scissors
* For pumpkin: 2 9″ x 12″ pieces of orange felt, plus 2 9″ x 12″ pieces, 1 gold, 1 black
* For cat: 9″ x 12″ piece of black felt, plus 2 9″ x 12″ pieces, 1 gold, 1 pink
* Pins
* Fabric glue
* Tapestry needle
* 2′ ribbon, about 1″ wide1. Cut all templates for bag you plan to make.
2. Stack orange pieces (for pumpkin) or black pieces (for cat) on top of each other. Center bag pattern on felt; pin in place and cut. Glue pieces together, using a thin bead of glue 1/4″ from edge of felt. Leave top edge open, as indicated on template.
3. Place remaining templates on small pieces of felt (use photos, left and below, as a color guide); pin and cut.
4. Position eyes, nose and mouth on bag pieces and glue in place.
5. To make strap, use a tapestry needle to pull one end of ribbon through the bag, as indicated on template. Remove needle and tie in a knot. Repeat with other end of ribbon.
