Sewing Pattern – DIY Beach Towel Bag

If you are like me you want an easy way to carry your towel and a few items to the beach but don’t want a bag just to hold those things.

So I came up with the idea to make a beach towel bag. This way it is a bag that can hold a few items but also function as your towel. I love it! I share with you how you can make your own beach towel bag.

This is an easy sewing project that is perfect for summer! I even made a few for my kids so they each have their own. Start sewing this fun bag today.
