Sewing pattern: Easy drawstring bag

January 22, 2019 by Anne Weaver

Sewing tutorial: Easy drawstring bag

A simple drawstring bag makes a great project for beginners.  It’s easy to sew and can be used as a jewelry bag, toiletries bag, or even a bag to hold small toys.  Catherine from Dainty Dress Diaries shows how to make one in a video tutorial.  The soft floral fabric and the faux leather drawstring on the one she made is a beautiful combination!

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.
