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.
I can’t seem to find the link to the tutorial for the purse from neckties.
So sorry! It looks like I forgot to add in the linking. I’ve edited the post so it should show up for you now.

I’m getting a school bag rather than the purse. I love this purse.
The school bag is the same as what I’m describing as a purse. I thought it looked more like a “purse” than a school bag, so that’s how I described it when I linked to it. Sorry for the confusion! –Anne
I would love to have the pattern for this purse. My late husband was a great tie man, I have a large drawer full of ties. I know my daughter and daughter-in-law would love to have a purse made out of his ties.
Thanks
