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.
What a lovely project idea! I work with fabric every day although I am not a quilter. I have a huge and varied scrap stash that my quilting friends raid for their yo-yos. My latest leftovers come from some 10 varied yards of fabric from Tula Pink’s Flutterby collection. It will be the perfect fabric to use for your Butterfly Mobile. Thank you so much.
