Tutorial: Fairly Bucket Bag

Kristin from Sew Mama Sew shares a tutorial showing how you can make her Fairly Bucket Bag.  The bucket style bag has a drawstring top with cord pulled through grommets, and adjustable straps.  Inside, there’s a zippered pocket sewn in the lining.  Her tutorial makes a good sized bag, big enough to carry all your basics plus a little extra, but it’s not so big that it’s cumbersome.  You could easily alter the dimensions to make the bag bigger or smaller.

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.
