Candy Bag....Zip Cases


Candy Bags

stitched into Zip Cases


How FUN are these !!!



The secret weapon is...Iron-On Vinyl











Start saving your product bags:




When Halloween candy was on sale...

I stocked up on the larger bags:


All of these bags have been trimmed up, 

cut in half and the iron-on vinyl 

has been fused in place...





I also matched up zippers with each package...







These aren't just for candy packages:


Cookie packages work great...







Yes, frozen potato packages stitch up nicely:












I layer the package with batting...





I quilt a few rows of stitching to hold

the batting in place...





I put the candy right back in the bag...

it will be part of the gift when I give these away.





I also line the inside of the bag with fabric...





I square off the bottom so the bag stands up...





I cut the zippers to size,

so I use the leftover zipper as a pull

on the side of the bag.





How FUN is this peas zip case !





I am just getting started...

lots more coming soon !
