Tutorial: Pumpkin bean bag or floor cushion

Ruth from Moonbags shows how to make a pumpkin bean bag or floor cushion.  Finished dimensions are 53? (135cm) circumference x 8? (21cm) tall, big enough for a small child to sit on. The oversized pumpkin could also be really cute porch décor, as it would be big enough to be seen from the street or sidewalk.  She suggests also scaling down the pattern to make tabletop décor.

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.
