How to make your own Halloween
Trick-or-Treat Bag |
|
This Halloween Trick - or - Treat bag is easy to make and
once Halloween is done, it can be stored away until next year!!!
You will need: Fabric for the Halloween bag, orange,
yellow, and white felt for the candy corn, and basic sewing needs. |
|
 |
Draw a pattern for your
candy corn and cut out your pieces in orange, yellow, and white felt.
Cut a long strip 2 1/2" X 18" out of your bag fabric for
your bag handle.
Cut a piece of fabric 32" X 14" for your
trick-or-treat bag. Pin your candy corn to to the pretty side of
one side of your bag in the center. Zigzag stitch around your candy corn staying
close to the candy corn edge. |
|
 |
Place the strap for your
bag pretty sides together. Pin. Stitch down the long side. Turn your bag
handle to pretty side out. Press flat. |
|
 |
Place bag pretty sides and
pin the sides together. DO NOT pin the top, (that is where the
candy goes in) Straight stitch the sides using
the pressure foot as your guide. |
|
 |
Turn the top of your bag
down 1/4" towards the ugly side of the fabric and press.
Turn it down again 1& 1/2" and press. Pin. Stitch along the top of your
bag making sure your bag is open and you don't catch the other side.
(Other wise, you will stitch the top of your bag closed and candy can't
get in..., we wouldn't want that.) |
|
 |
Place the one side of your handle on the ugly side of your
bag at the side seam. Stitch it in place making sure you do not catch the
other side of your bag. Do the same to the other side of your handle
on the other side of your bag. |
