I got a craigslist $75 1960s sewing machine and I LOVE it!
My first projects, just to get the feel of the thing and learn to make button holes (!!!) were these gift bags. I made them from old jeans, remnants, ribbon I had on hand, and buttons I had in my grandmother's sewing basket.

It's fleece, ribbon, and some buttons.
