I made potholders for the women and making these bags to fill with goodies for the male teachers. I have some great masculine-type-looking fabric I am using! I have tried boxing bottoms before and never get both sides the same; I didn't know what I was doing. Your tutorial is awesome because now I know how to do that perfectly!Sewing by Shirleyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14073228812439584262noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4035755590833291625.post-59387033430629842072014-12-02T18:58:38.880+11:002014-12-02T18:58:38.880+11:00Talking about bags carried by women in the past, h...Talking about bags carried by women in the past, has reminded me of a little crocheted drawstring bag that I used to carry when I was in my teens.

I am using a different tutorial, but I have made several bags. Fun and easy to make and useful too. My knitting group does a yarn exchange each Dec. and last year and again this year, I will put my yarn in a drawstring bag to give. We play a game so i never know who will get mine.Daryl @ Patchouli Moon Studiohttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06187456682218408410noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4035755590833291625.post-77274212685163210312014-11-14T01:01:10.659+11:002014-11-14T01:01:10.659+11:00Oh my gosh - OnceUponASew copied my comment - hour...Oh my gosh - OnceUponASew copied my comment - hours before I typed it ... LOL!! I had one too, as a kiddo, but it was just a plain plastic tube with metal thingies on top. I can't remember what it was called way back then, but I remember what I used to make with it - Barbie clothes! I made dresses (wow they would certainly have been form fitting, LOL!) but I don't recall what else I would have made!Sandra :)https://www.blogger.com/profile/16239494415344028806noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-4035755590833291625.post-72559601740377118222014-11-13T22:08:22.709+11:002014-11-13T22:08:22.709+11:00Oh I remember doing this as a little girl!
