    I was afraid that you didn’t do a tutorial for a drawstring bag because you’re my favorite person to follow when it comes to sewing, but then I realized that you did, and I was soooo happy!! Thank you so much!!

    I made a whole bunch of these bags of different sizes with Christmas fabric to wrap family and friends gifts. My family knows to return the bags to me at the end of the festivities! My brother loves them so much that he requested a set for his family! It cuts down on wrapping time and on the garbage on Christmas morning for sure! Thank you for the tutorial!

    Yours is STILL my favorite! I have made so many and am making more! I use a fat quarter and just one drawstring! Started off as a shoe travel bag, now I use for everything especially my crochet projects! Thank you SO much Dana!

    Thank you for the enjoyable tutorial! I am a woodworker considering embarking into sewing. I wanted to know how to make a drawstring bag to hold a set of wooden dominoes and this is just what I was looking for. And you're right, drawstring bags can be perfect for so many situations and people DO love hand made gifts!

    I just made this bag and I love it!! This has to be the best drawstring bag tutorial because your directions are very clear and well-put! I even checked out your blog, which helped me add lining to the inside of my bag. I am so satisfied with the results and now I have a big enough bag to store all my makeup palettes, brushes, and tools to take on the go. Thank you so much!

    Someone gifted me something like that bag many many years ago. I remember looking inside of that bag all the time while playing with toys that I kept in it, and I really loved how well made it was. I had to learn how to sew because of that bag. It was a draw string bag but it had a lining in it, and it had four zipper pockets on the inside through the lining, and then four more pockets on the outside of the bag. I had so much fun with that thing! But I did wear it out. And I'm learning myself how to install zipper pockets so I can make a bag like that one I loved when I was a kid.

    I just used this pattern to make a bag for my pegs! I am very much a novice. but had no trouble. Thank you for taking the time to share your creativity with others. Now that we are at home in isolation, there is the time to make bigger ones to use for Christmas presents instead of wrapping paper. Thanks!

    Just love how well you demonstrate and explain your projects. I just followed this one but used a logo’d school t-shirt that didn’t fit my kids. Now they argue about who gets to use their school logo drawstring bag! I added beads to the end of the drawstrings to jazz it up a touch.

    Bags work GUUURRRRREEEAAAATTT!!!!! Fell onto your splendid vid after shopping in a chain sporting goods chain and disappointed to find one of your type bags for less than I would pay, and imported. Perfect size for gym soap/shampoo/incidental stuff. Choosing my own size and a little help from your vid, made a couple and then some for gifts, acceptable. Thanks a whole bunch and a bunch again!

    I make loads of these bags! I often do French seams to give a finished edge inside if there is no lining. I also prefer the cut out squares on the bottom of the bag instead of the triangles to box it, as you see the seams for matching easier! Thanks Dana.
