    Default You can't leave me alone with leftover fabric.... I might get ideas

    My Daughter is hosting a favorite things party and she asked me to make the bags. I made 20 of these. She bought the fabric from Walmart for dollar or two a yard. It is just polyester junk but fine for the bags. 2 blisters from the hot glue later... the bags are done.
    Well she had leftover fabric, and I just couldn't let it go to waste....LOL so I asked her if I could play with the rest and she was excited to hear those words.
    So here is what I did with the leftovers. I thought this would be cute for the table at the party.

    Using up leftover fabric was one of the reasons quilting was thought up in the first place! Go you for keeping the dream alive!
