I'll admit it... my kids spend time dreaming during this season of playing dress up out in public and getting candy from strangers. 

But as I am frequently looking for pieces that multi-task, in my uni-tasker world, I came to the decision to make a bag  that would not only carry the above candy, but would also facilitate books and other gear when needed.

I also have to admit that I didn't sew the actual bag, but instead used a coupon and teacher discount card at Joann's to get them incredibly cheap (I think that the original price was around $7 for 3 bags, I haven't made mine yet).

I made the owl design, and Shawn made her spider design using scraps that seem to be everywhere these days.

I also used this time to do a bit of a hand sewing lesson with both kids, yes, boys can learn to sew.  Shawn did an over stitch around her spider, but Jett just decided to practice a running stitch.....
