The top one was the view of the floor behind my serger tonight. Then, all stacked up. 88 in case you were wondering. More to do tomorrow night. iPhone night photos are not the best. :) Teresa
I just cut or rip fabric to be 18 inches by 36 inches or one yard by 1/2 yard and fold it over. I then cut out the notches and have my bag ready to sew. Does that make sense? It's really easy once you get going!
You can also use 2 fat quarters as they are 18 inches by 22 inches, just cut 4 inches off of each piece and use that for the handles.
Hi Theresa! Just made two bags from old pillowcases - they are already the correct size and the sides and bottom are already sewn! Thanks for the free pattern! ... Barbara R.

Do you have a template (perplex)when cutting out the pattern or measure out each one?

ReplyDeleteTigre812-- Yes, isn't that great! We have made some from old pillow cases too and they are perfect!
ReplyDeleteI would love to try one of your bags. I have been using cloth bags for a while now and they work great.
