Patterns, Techniques, Articles, Blogs, and other resources to learn how to sew
Justine from Sew Country Chick continues her pattern drafting series with a tutorial showing how to drape the back of a basic bodice. (Her first post in the series shows how to drape the front bodice.) Once you’ve got the fabric draped and cut and marked, you’ll transfer that to a paper pattern for the bodice back. Go to Sew Country Chick for the tutorial.

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.
Love your site. I don’t have one. Love to sew, quilt, or anything with fabric. Thank you
