Sewing Pattern Tutorial: Make a drawstring binky bag to keep pacifiers at the ready

by

When you’re in need of a pacifier, it’s generally because there’s a fussy baby you’re wanting (needing) to quiet.  And it never fails that the fussier the baby, the deeper the pacifier is hidden in the recesses of the diaper bag.

Chris from Pickup Some Creativity guest blogs over at Craftiness Is Not Optional with a tutorial showing how to make this “binky bag”.  This handy bag can button around the strap of a purse or diaper bag, keeping the pacifiers clean and at the ready.   Find out how to make one at Craftiness Is Not Optional.

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.
