Not wanting to get involved in any of my bigger projects yesterday, I made my gifts for Christmas Through the Year.
Lingerie bags! ~and the cool thing is, all I did was add the binding! I saw this on Lori Holt's Bee in My Bonnet blog and loved the idea! Here is her tutorial. I found the bags at Target just like she said I would. :-) I did do mine a little bit different though. I added the binding like you would quilt binding~ sewing it to one side and flipping it to sew to the other. I sewed it to the back and flipped it to the front though. Then I stitched in the ditch on the back. You can see through the mesh so easily that you can see that you have enough to catch the front, when sewing on the back. I love the finished look of straight sewing. :-)
As I was sewing I was thinking~ these would be great as a gift to a new mom too~ all those cute little baby socks wouldn't get lost in the wash! :-)
Hope you are having a happy Monday! Until next time~
Happy Stitchin'!!

What aa clever idea! I may have to try some of these myself. They would make good baby gifts too.
Thanks for sharing!
Those turned out so cute. I saw that tutorial the other day and thought it would be such fun.
I love your bags. I made them too. :0)
Such an interesting idea, everyone needs those wash bags. Gosh you are in early this month.
Sweet idea!
You could also use them (depending on size) as reusable produce bags at the grocery store.
Great idea and so cute!! Good work on getting some presents done for Christmas. Thanks for joining us!!!
I LOVE this idea... so thanks for sharing. A baby wash bag for socks sounds perfect! :)
They are perfect for baby socks, I gave one to my daughter to hang next the changing table several years ago. She loved it. I think she finally quit using it last year for her daugthers socks since they're almost as big as hers now, lol!!
