This is one of those projects where inspiration strikes and you just have to get making! For some reason, I really wanted to make a drawstring bag. I had just the right fabric in my stash, and the bag came together just as I hoped!
I made the pattern up myself - it is very simple. This is the first time I've made a drawstring bag with the drawstring channel at the top, made out of separate fabric, rather than a channel within the body of the bag. I like it!
The ribbon was some I had in stash too, and I thought it was perfectly sunny and right for this fabric!
The lining is the same spotty fabric as the drawstring channel. I've not used any other interfacing or wadding, as I wanted the bag to be soft and relaxed.
Don't you just love it when something comes out just as you'd hoped?! I think I will use it as a small project bag, for little knitting, crochet or embroidery projects.
What do you think? I hope the fabric brightens your day!
