  • In this comprehensive video I make a lined drawstring bag, from start to finish. It covers everything from cutting to finishing the bag. You'll need to have either the tutorial or pattern handy when following along with the video:

    Easy lined drawstring bag sewing tutorial. Use them as eco-friendly reusable gift bags, travel bags, project bags, and more. You can't make just one! They're addicting, fast to make and a great stash buster! These bags are fat-quarter friendly, they only use three fat quarters (plus twill or fabric for the ties), so even if your stash is small, you can make these bags!

    I have been sewing for years (since I was 8 years old and I'm 74) and I wanted to say how detailed and specific this tutorial is. If someone has never made anything like this these instructions are so detailed and easy to follow anyone at most any age will be able to make this bag. Jeni Baker you are a wonderful speaker and convey your message better than most of the tutorials on You Tube. I have made many bags but just had to listen to the whole thing because you are fantastic at what you do. Keep up the good work.

    I watched this tutorial with my grand-daughter who is 8, in preparation for sewing a bag for her journal and another for her tarot cards and I will probably make a bag for my DnD dice. This was really easy to understand and we are looking forward to following these instructions. Thank you!

    I cut out four bags and have finished two. I'll finish the other two tomorrow! I added a lightweight interfacing on the main body of the bag, changed the turning gap to the side and used a new ruler to cut the boxed corners before sewing. I also learned to wait until the bag is finished before closing the gap!

    This really is a fantastic video. I had no trouble following along. Stopped the video at intervals and did each step and the bag turned out beautifully though three of the four gussets got mismatched and I didn’t get the accent pieces properly matched. My modifications included making a bigger bag and to use my embroidery machine to add the gift recipient's name.

      @@jenib320 Don't see a way to post or send you a picture but yes, it was quite lovely. I’ve always been stumped on how to make a lined bag because of the outside-inside wrongside-out confusion [so I’ve stuck to zipper bags that I’ve got a go-to pattern for] but your design has NONE of that.

    • @jenib320
      @jenib320  2 роки тому

      I choose a reference edge to start from (usually the selvedge) and trim up the other sides based off that edge. It definitely takes some practice!

      The fourth edge was sewn together in the first sewing step (when all the pieces are sewn into one long strip).

  • @lucindahouston2053
    @lucindahouston2053 2 роки тому

    I love that. It's my favorite style, both lined and with the extra ruffle at top. The only thing that bothered me was trying to figure out whether the tie openings were finished or raw. I read over the tutorial and watched the video and was unable to determine that.

    • @jenib320
      @jenib320  2 роки тому +1

      The openings are raw, but I haven't had any trouble with fraying in the ten years I've been making these bags. You're welcome to serger or zig-zag over the edges of the accent piece before sewing if you're worried about it though!
