    I've been scrolling through looking for an easy drawstring bag tutorial, and this one is the best. Easy and very well explained. Kicking myself for wasting time looking at others. Laura you are one of the greats. Thank you.

    Laura this is the best and easiest drawstring bag, I made 7 for laundry bags at Christmas as my family all go travelling, I even made my granddaughters friend one as they were going overseas together. I hadn't made myself one so I have just done that finally, I just use up large scraps. Thank you Laura.

    Laura, I have become obsessed with watching your videos! You explain so thoroughly! Thank you for all your hard work and the team that helps you! I love these bags and am going to be making them for Christmas gift bags and some little darling dolly and blanket bags for some little girls!

    I’ve made two of these over the last week, the tutorial was perfect. I tested it out on a small size first (made a perfect sized bottle bag) then went on to make large laundry bags, with names added using my embroidery machine. I really enjoyed making them and will definitely be making more. Thank you so much for the great tutorial. One thing I realised though, that you have to be careful not to glue the two sides of the casing together when turning the seams back. I found that putting a thick pen into the opening worked really well to keep the two layers apart 👍😁

    So great!! And timely for summer picnics and beach/trips to park. Then there's Christmas gift time. Thank you, Laura, for adding another idea to my gift giving. Just the bag is great. . . with something baked is even sweeter.

    @janetnavin6630 5 років тому +1

    Thank you for this tutorial. I made a large bag to "wrap" a shower gift for my niece. I did a bit of patchwork on one side, and used some fabric from my stash to make much of it.

    Thank you so much! This is simply wonderful! My kid's school uses many bags to help kids organize their stuff .... gym bag, Art bag, lunch mat bag, shoe bag .... you just name it! Now I can tone down the fancy designs/motifs by using them as linings for the bag :)

  • @PeleLua1
    @PeleLua1 3 роки тому

    Thank you for a great video. I wanted to refresh my memory on how to make this kind of bag since it’s been awhile. Your directions were very clear and I liked that you added the piece at the end about sizing. The other thing I liked was the fact that you mitered your corners! I rarely see people doing this any more to their bags, but my grandmother would roll over in her grave if I didn’t miter and square up my corners for a neater look. Thank you 😊🙏

    My sister just asked me for one. Great teaching and clear and slow enough for us to follow. A funny thing I used, to pull thru the string was a bracelet buddy (an alligator clip with a stem to hold a bracelet to put on yourself while it holds the clasp) Thanks for posting this.
