Gift Set

A couple of weeks ago I sewed up a matching tissue holder, zippered pouch, and drawstring pouch for a birthday gift. I paired linen fabric with a bright Robert Kaufman print, both from my stash. I tweaked the measurements from this great drawstring bag tutorial to create a bag in the desired size. I discovered that I really like making drawstring bags! The most time-consuming part for me? Sewing the drawstrings! I thought about buying them, but I really liked the idea of matching them with the fabric.

All packed up and ready to go!

    Such a pretty set … your sewing is impeccable and so neat! I think the matching drawstring is way better but it must have been so difficult to turn them right side out!

    Oh that is so pretty - the fabric just pops right off the lovely natural linen!

    I love your little drawstrings…what size tape maker did you start with? The size is perfect! =)
