Strawberries are not only delicious, but they also look cute. Have you ever thought about using its image to make a cute bag? Share a tutorial on how to make a simple drawstring bag, so that you can carry a beautiful big strawberry on your back. If you like it, come and learn!~
You will need red and green fabrics for the strawberries and leaves respectively, as well as matching stitching. You can use rope as a tie. A third lining fabric is optional. Additionally, you will need to have your sewing machine ready.
Cut out the basic shapes of two bags from the red fabric.
Cut leaves from dark green fabric.
As shown in the picture after completion.
Take only one strawberry slice and one leaf and fix them with pins as shown.
Then fold the top of the leaf, leaving a little more on the back.
Then sew as shown. The top is hollow and the rope can be inserted.
Cut both ropes to desired length, 64 inches each. Next, takeoneof the strawberry slices and flip it over to the back. Thread the rope through the top hollow.
Repeat the same process and thread the rope through the other piece.
Take the string and sew it to the other end of it.
Be sure to sew it to yourself, not another strand.
Fold the bag together so the leaves are now on the outside.
Then pull the string so that the sewn ends are hidden in the fold of the fabric.
Fold the rectangular piece of fabric in half.
Sew along the edge.
Then turn them inside out.
Lay the main part flat so that the leaves are all facing up.
Take the rectangular strip of fabric and fold it over the rope, securing it on the same side of the drawstring. I pinned it 7 inches from the top and placed the string on top of the bottom strawberry slices.
Next, fold the top over the rope and secure it in place. Sew along the edges of the strawberries. Do not sew all the way down the side of the cord as this will prevent the bag from closing. Also, be careful not to sew the string anywhere.
The cute strawberry bag is finished!
You can also add a lining. Remove the lining pieces and sew them together. Then, add it to the strawberries.
Adjust the lining so that the side seams match the side seams of the bag.
Then fold the top of the lining back and secure.
After sewing, a cute lined strawberry bag is ready~
