SANTA SACK

Its really not long to Christmas now and I've been frantically trying to get everything made.  Why do I leave it to the last minute?????

Here is Jake's Santa Sack finished all except for his name, which I will put on a tag and hang from the drawstring.

The pattern was from www.kidsquilts.com but instead of an applique panel on the front, I decided to do the Santa face in felt and decorate with sequins.  It seems to make the bag stand up a little better than just a sack.


Front of Santa Sack
Its a great design, with pockets at the back for all those books that Santa will leave, plus there's plenty of room for all the presents inside.

Rear of Santa Sack with pockets
The material is sooooo cute.  Its a little different with trains and quirky Christmas trees.


Plus it has a round base that enables it to stand up on its own.



Now all we need is Santa to stop by........which I am absolutely SURE he will do :) :) :)
