Cloth bag keeps little things on! And something else!
sewing instructions:
For the bag you need two rectangles of fabric that are either 34 x 40 cm (if you need a small fabric bag) or 40 x 45 cm (if you need a larger fabric bag) big!
Iron the long sides of the fabric pieces 1 cm to the inside! Then put both pieces of fabric together right to right!
With pins the pieces are stapled together! Cut 4 x 4 cm (small bag) or 5 x 5 cm (large bag) squares from the bottom corners!
Then stack the sides and the bottom together! Dust the open edges with zigzag stitches!
Put the two side seams on the bottom seam! Then sew the open flanks together near the foot!
Done is the floor! Turn the cloth bag now!
For the drawstring, first mark two lines all around with a trick pin on the top inner edge of the bag! The first line should be 2 cm and the second 6 cm from the edge!
Then turn the fabric to the first line and iron! Then fold this edge again to the second line and iron!
Then quilt the edge tightly! Then open the vertical stitches between the stitched line and the top edge again!
When pulling through the cord, it helps to use a safety pin or similar!
Lead the first cord from the right side through one of the two drawstrings to the left and through the other back to the right side! This gives you two open ends on the right side that you have to knot!
The second cord is led from the left through the drawstrings, so that both ends are finally left!
Tie both cord ends together! Now you can pull the cords together and close the bag!
It’s so easy to sew a fabric bag, right? It is recommended, however, that the length is greater than the width!
So you can sew a fabric bag, and quite simply yourself!
