Essie from Penelope Waits shows how to make this Little Bag of Secrets drawstring pouch. What will you hold in your Little Bag of Secrets? Get 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.
thanks for linking my pattern! i hope you like it 🙂
Essie, I love your little bag of secrets, thank you so much for creating and sharing the tutorial. I have made 3 in the past. I went to make it again today for my nephew, but was so sad to find I can’t find the tutorial.
Could you please let me know if the tutorial is available somewhere else?
Thank you,
Katharyn
