Cutlery bags

For Christmas we love to take some more efforts and this year we’ll have some very nice cutlery bags, folded or sewed ones. For the left and right bag I found two lovely video instructions you’ll only have to follow. For the red bag I simply inserted an additional paper napkin after the two top layers were folded (min. 1.18). Matching with the grey star napkin color I fastened fork and knife with a grey and white ribbon. For the red napkin I chose a twine loop an a small fir twig. Both are just laid on top of the bag.

The right pouch is made with cotton fabric. I even found a nice template on the site of Samelia’s Mum. It’s very easy and I just didn’t have to change or add something. Instead of folding the B-piece in half I just cut two halves and placed a small folded stripe of cotton in between. Therefore place the folded cotton stripe, right sides out, on top of one half’s right side. Put second half on top with right side down. Then stitch at 1/5″ from the edge. Turn inside out and put it on one of the backside parts. Once the cutlery inside I’ll put two ribbon loops and a small pine cone on top. Lops and cone are joined with liquid glue. Choose your fabric according to dishes or other table decoration parts.
