Little gift bags

[sail149]

I have ALMOST finished making enough of these little gift bags for my granddaughter's sixth birthday party next weekend:

 

 

The pattern is cupcake's, and they have been fun to crochet! I still have three more to finish - marathon crochet effort!

Pretty bags,Maureen!

Lol - yes, we decided, my daughter and I, that the bags would be a "girl gift"! I did crochet a special drawstring treasure bag for my grandson, who is 3, because he spends a lot of time with me, and has watched me working on the bags - he was beginning to feel left out - but for the little boys who will be at the party, there will be "coconut shell" novelties from Spotlight, filled with appropriate little gifts.

This stage of "inviting the whole class" to the birthday party will pass soon enough, but Grade 1 is an important year, and I wanted to help to make it a special day for my granddaughter.

 

Thank you for all your lovely comments! It's nice when your work is appreciated by other crocheters
