Let's get creative and make this spooky season a handmade one!

Me and my family, we love Halloween and so it's a no-brainer for us to go all in. Making last-minute treat bags and handmade zipper pouches every single year. 

But let's get started. Shall we?

It might be last minute - but isn't it always? Whipping up some quick trick or treat bags literally on the day... but this is how we creatives roll. Right?

Ohhh and here the best reason ever to go handmade this year: reduce some of the incredible amounts of plastic and wrapper. Plastic trick or treat buckets and single use bags! Now I got your attention... Right, my friend?

Let's start with the cutest of all bags - the MINI. Based on the original Wee Braw Bag - the MINI is a free spin-off pattern that you can get over here on my Sewing Blog. Just give me your details and I'll send your free copy right away.

And of course - one of my absolutely favourite makes ever!

The Glitta Pouch. Pretty much the perfect Halloween project as you can go all in. Using Glitter or even little spooky trinkets you might have at home already. And dang... they are so much fun. Not just for kids. Just saying!

And this is what you'll need to make your spooky Glitta Pouch:

And finally you will need a copy of the Glitta Pouch Sewing Pattern. You can find it in my shop amongst all my other patterns. But this is a true fave, my friend.

The pattern comes in three sizes, is super scrap friendly and suitable for beginners. Trust me - sewing with vinyl and inserting zippers doesn't have to be tricky. I will show you how... almost as if I am sitting right next to you.
