This charming and unique little drawstring bag is cleverly designed to lay flat for easy storage or travel, then Zip to Shape when you're ready to use it. It features a decorative band around the exterior—showcasing some of Linda’s Kaleidoscope Designs, inspired by her photography. Like many of Ghee’s patterns, the Zip to Shape bag includes a hidden pocket in the bottom for added functionality. A partial zipper is creatively used as a piping detail, while a full zipper forms the structure of the bag. You’ll learn a distinctive zipper construction technique that becomes a focal point of this project. It’s a quick, easy and fun way that’s sure to spark your creativity.

 

Materials fee includes: Precut fabric, Kaleidoscope design to embellishment, stabilizer, zipper for closure, zipper for trim, draw string, pattern
