Make an easy komebukuro (Japanese rice bag)

A komebukuro is a drawstring bag traditionally used in Japan to bring rice offerings to temples and shrines. They were made of small pieces of cloth. This is my version of such a bag. The fabrics used for the bag (except for the lining) are made by ‪@olympusthread‬

What a great bag and the fabrics are so gorgeous!

This is the shortest, fastest video on making these I’ve seen so far. Now it makes sense! Thank you!!

[@virginiabenbow3189]

Thank you for this video it was clear and one of the best constructions that I have seen on rice bags and sew quick to watch giving me more time to make one for myself. ❤

[@DlauLau-to8ne]

Thank you for easy instructions

Beautiful - I love it. But doesn't the rice come out of the corners? Did I miss the sewing of the corners (I watched twice)

[@helgamiller8810]

Thank you for sharing

[@kristinchristienitter]

Great tutorial, thanks🎉

[@mjemyers]

Such an interesting way to construct this bag! I would love to see the finished corners more clearly. I think they may be slightly boxed? I like that idea so much.

Tyvm 💙

[@helenaMe325]

But what about the corners?? Didn't see you end up sewing any of them at all 🤷

[@heleneholm7059]

Yes ! I also wonder about that ! 🧐😅👍🏼

[@Thenaturalingredients]

do you think I can do a similar pattern but without a drawstring? instead wanted to just have handles, do you think it would look weird or throw off the whole look of the bag ?
thanks!

[@whatever-ql5ns]

Gorgeous. Tho I’ll have to slow it down. Well worth it tho. Thank you.

[@terp4u2]

Do you happen to also have written instructions? Easier to lay out as sewing

[@tcldevi]

Would have been good if it was a little slower.

[@mrscpc1918]

I found that impossible to follow 😩
