Make Halloween extra special with these easy DIY trick-or-treat bags! This beginner-friendly sewing tutorial is perfect for last-minute crafting and uses just 1/2 yard of Halloween-themed fabric (pumpkins, ghosts, bats – you name it!) for the exterior and another 1/2 yard for the lining. No templates needed, and it’s all straight stitching, making it a breeze even for new sewists. Customize your bags with applique or iron-on vinyl if you have a Cricut or cutting machine. The finished bags measure approximately 12″ tall by 13″ wide, perfect for candy hauls or even as book or craft totes. Plus, they’re reversible, practical, and so much fun to make! With simple straps and adaptable designs, this project can inspire endless creative possibilities.
