How long has it been since you’ve sewn something for yourself?  It’s nice to make things for other people, but you should also make sure you use your mad sewing skills to treat yourself. If you need some motivation, Selfish Sewing Week is just around the corner, September 28 – October 3.  Rachael from Imagine Gnats has the details – and a free printable planner for your projects – on her blog.

Easy Cosmetics Bag Sewing Pattern

The bag is simple, uses very little fabric (about 2/3rds of a fat quarter), has no fussy inside pockets (although you can add your own if you like), and takes me well less than 30 minutes to print the pattern, cut out and sew. But quick and simple doesn’t mean it’s not awesome!

It’s the sort of bag that is versatile enough to be used for lots of applications, not just cosmetics and toiletries. Keep all your pens and pencils in order, use it for a small first aid kit for the car, keep it in your desk at work for a few headache pills and other personal supplies.

Make some for yourself, for gifts or to sell.
