Tutorial: No-sew shark bathing suit bag

Thanks to the Sharknado movies, my daughter has a strange obsession with all things shark. I’m pretty sure she would love it if I made this shark bathing suit bag for her. Meaghan at Blitsy shares a video tutorial showing how. You can start with a purchased drawstring bag and add the felt shark, so it’s actually a pretty easy no-sew project. And don’t stress about finding a waterproof bag to use for this project. She shows how you can use Mod Podge to keep moisture from seeping through the fabric.
