DRAWSTRING APPLIQUE BAG PDF digital download sewing pattern

This is a PDF digital download sewing pattern to make a charming linen drawstring bag- a perfect holdall for cosmetics or crafty bits and bobs. A PDF download is perfect for those that want to avoid postage costs and have an immediate pattern emailed direct.

Using an eclectic mix of patterned fabrics for the patchwork base, the bag features a central applique floral design motif adding a touch of retro style and drawstring ties at each side. An optional trim such as Ric Rac can also be stitched across the seam line.

The finished bag measures approximately: 22cm x 32cm (8 3⁄4” x 12 1⁄2”). LEVEL: beginners.

The pattern templates are arranged on four sheets of A4 pages for you to trim down (a guillotine is good for this) and stick together (glue stick). The illustrated/photographed instruction booklet can be viewed on your phone or printed off.

Instructions about printing and assembling the pattern are provided.
IMPORTANT! please ensure the printer settings are at 100% prior to printing the templates. I advise to print off page 1 first and check that the test square measures 5cm x 5cm.
