These are a beautiful fast and easy sewing project! They can even be used as tall drawstring bags afterwards! They do not have handles, so I recommend using them as ‘gift wrap’!

What you will need: Cotton fabric Iron and ironing board Rotary cutter and cutting mat (or scissors) Seam gauge or measuring tape Sewing machine Sewing machine thread and needle Twine, ribbon or something of the sort Optional: pins The steps: 1.
