Embroidered Golfing Shoes Bags

My husband Tony, our daughter Christina, and her husband Eric are "weekend hacker golfers"--my husband's words. So one day I thought I would make them bags for their golf shoes. I was not confident enough to embroider directly on the bags themselves, so I appliqued their initials. However, I finally got brave enough to embroider initials for the last one I made which was Christina's.  I was so nervous when I embroidered directly on the shoe bag and it came out perfect! Yea!!

Embroidered Small Zippered Bag & Tissue Cover

I like to make these because they are very easy to sew. I purchased the pattern for the zippered bag and travel tissue cover a few years back. It's Simplicity Crafts #9949. I just added the wrist strap.  I usually make them as just because gifts--no special occasion or anything but just because I like the person and want to show my appreciation to them. I embroider the name before I put it together, so it doesn't show on the inside.
