Learn how to make a lined drawstring bag with a boxed bottom and contrasting top in this step by step tutorial.
This bag is simple to make and the contrast top really adds to the stylish look. I made this bag for my kids to keep all their duplo blocks organized and it has worked perfectly! They can open and close the drawstring themselves so they can play and build and be in charge of their own cleanup afterwards. The boxed bottom allows the bag to hold two duplo block sets with room to spare and when full of toys it stands up on it's own. If you like this tutorial make sure to check out my other drawstring bag how tos linked below. Happy Sewing!

Thank you for making a VERY easy to follow and short video...... so many times I come in to learn how to do something and don't have to time for ones ramblings............

@BritClips 2 жыл бұрын

I've made 2 gift bags using this bag and love the boxed corners which I have never attempted before. I don't however like the casing edges at the sides. In future I will plan the place where the ribbon comes out and have that part open before assembling the rest.

Fantastic how to do video's, no long drawn out waffle just straight to the point, very refreshing 😁

@akamaikiwi 2 жыл бұрын

I watched this video about 4 times, i just used 4 pieces of fabric, two for the inside, two for the outside but the boxing instructions should were great and my recipient not only loved it, she showed it off to others

Easy to follow and fast to make. No need to watch a 45 min. video! I used fuseable fleece to add form and used as a bag for my mom's scooter. Super cute and functional!

@twinklybones8952 5 жыл бұрын

I am excited to try this! I’ve been wanting some packing cubes but I have SO much fabric I need to use, and I thought some flat bottom drawstring bags may do the trick 👍 Thank you for the tutorial 💛

@janholman6192 3 жыл бұрын

Exactly what I was looking for. The other videos on drawstring bags didn't have the ribbon/cording in the middle like yours, no lining, and no boxed corners, so this was great.

Whitney, I have to share with you that I love 💘 your tutorials! So much, that I'm guessing I have gone back to this one about 50 times! When I need a reminder about which goes right side together (lining & outer), for one example, I click on this tutorial for a refresher! Thank you sooo much for creating these tutorials! You've been instrumental in my sewing progression!!!!

I cut them off sometimes, but depending on what I use the bag for I will sometimes leave them for a bit of extra support.

Awesome tutorial, thanks, Whitney. I need to make one for my one-cup travel coffee maker for which I have no bag or carrier. When I travel, I'm kinda grossed out by hotel room glasses, mugs, and coffee makers so I bring my own. I think I'll have to add a sturdy, firm bottom so it doesn't sag, though. 👍😀

You could get a flexible chopping mat at the dollar store or something similar and sew a fabric sleeve for it to fit inside and use that for the bottom.

Probably, but it would have to be added before the lining and at exactly the right location for the finished bag.
