Sew it – Drawstring Bag

06

UPDATE: I was reviewed on Featuring It Wednesday Drawstring Bag For sew It regarding on this game I’ve joined in. Thanks a lot Mayya!

I was so interested when I read about this on Zura’s blog. Then I found it on Hani’s too. So, they leaded me to Make a Drawstring Bag with Sew It by Mayya Sew Chic and Unique. I want to join the game as I’ve been planned to make myself a small-simple-handy pouch for my simple-easy-going self. So here’s my drawstring version…

Made it last night, only took about an hour to be finished. Quite easy to make indeed, time-consuming only on embellishing part. Mostly I used wooden buttons to embellish both sides. The body measures 25.5 cm height, 18.5 length and the base is about 11.5 cm x 7 cm.

I recycled a never-used embroidered jeans which I’ve bought a months ago. Actually, this design I’ve designed for quite long, ever since my student-life. We were asked to form a company and sell products, for our entrepreneurship subject. So, one of the product we sell was this kind of pouch. I made it for our company. So, it’s like a ‘revisited’ for me to make this pouch after 7 years.

It has rectangular base. Just perfect for my wallet, cellphone and keys. Its handy; just slip my hand through the handle and just it. Big fussy handbag, no more!

To all crafters out there, let sew along!

Howdy! It’s not too late to wish all of my viewers, Happy New Year 2010. May it brings only the best to our lives ahead.

Here are some items I want to let go. Those semi precious gems I’ve been kept for quite long. Seemed like I’m not really into it at the moment, so I want to sell it away. And the ribbons, I just bought them a few days ago as accidentally I found them when I walked in into the shop, here in my home town.

So, happy viewing and shopping!
