Soon the travel time begins and this pretty make-up bag makes you want to go on vacation. We show you how you can sew the bag yourself.
What you need for the make-up bag:
- Patterns for download can be found here
- Computer, printer and paper
- 30 cm oilcloth with floral pattern (double laid)
- 30 cm lining material in pink (double layered)
- 30 cm zip in pink
- paper scissors
- French chalk
- fabric scissors
- pins
- Sewing machine and matching yarn
And that's how easy it is:
1. Download, print and cut pattern.
2. Put the cut 4x in the fabric break (2x outside pocket, 2x lining), pin and draw with tailor's chalk, add 2 cm seam allowance, then cut out.
3. Sew the short corner edges together for each part, then place parts right to right and topstitch the bottom and side edges.
4. Turn both pieces of fabric back to the right.
5. Iron the upper edges of the lining 1 cm to the outside, with the outer fabric 1 cm inwards.
6. Place pieces of fabric together so that the lining is inside.
7. Place a zippered side between the folded edges, fix with needles and stitch. Repeat on the left side.
8. Seal the zipper end with a cross seam, cut back excess and lay inside.
The make-up bag is ready !
