What was your inspiration?

My ever talented Daughter in Law, Kathleen Kennelly Ullman had these as small goodie bags on her website/blog http://www.twigandthistle.com/blog/2010/01/diy-valentines-day-goodie-bags/
My Daughter had seen similar valentine mails bags in a store, so Kathleen made me larger templates with everyones names and I made the hanging bags to fit. Different printers and different tranfer fabrics, changed the colors, but luckily the ones that printed a little less pink and more brown were i ones I did for the boys. You could easily work with the template to do something like this.

What are you most proud of?

How it all came together.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

have fun with it.
