DRAWSTRING BAG MAKING

Suitable for: Beginners and Improvers

​

These lovely drawstring bags are brilliant for so many jobs, and they are a great introduction to sewing. 

​

An extra large drawstring bag can hang on the back of the bedroom door and hide all those socks and t-shirts waiting for the wash, or use it to keep your children's toys off the floor. Scale it down a bit and they are brilliant for keeping your suitcase organised when you go on holiday - one for phone chargers, one for your nickers, one to keep you washing together... they make finding things in your suitcase so much easier.

​

Or, since Christmas is not far off, why not use some festive fabrics and make excellent reusable gift bags?

​
