- Supplies needed: 1/2 yard of any fabric, 3 " circle of cardboard, two strings 20 inches long.
- Cut two eleven inch, and two seven inch circles . Put the circles of the same size together facing each other, and sew all the way around them using 1/2 inch (or less) seam allowance.
- Carefully cut a snip in the center of one layer , make the hole just big enough to turn right side out , and press flat. Do this to both sets of circles.
- Stack the big circle hole side up, then the cardboard circle , and last on top the small circle with the cut side down.
- Sew around the cardboard through all the layers, except the cardboard.
- Sew up from the cardboard to the top edge of the smaller circle, several times around the circle.This will form the pockets to put your stuff in.
- Sew two rows of stitching around the outside edge of larger circle, start the first row 1/2 inch in from the edge and go all the way around the circle, skip the width of two strings doubled and add a little extra for clearance.
- Carefully snip two holes in the outside layer only, each one on opposite sides of the bag . These holes are for the draw strings to go through. You can hand sew around them, as you would a button hole.
- Run one string through the hole all the way around, and tie them together.
- Run the other string through the other hole and all the way around, and tie them together.
- Pull the cords up to close the bag.
- This makes an approximately 4 inch diameter bag when closed.
- Cut two eleven inch, and two seven inch circles . Put the circles of the same size together facing each other, and sew all the way around them using 1/2 inch (or less) seam allowance.
