This flat-bottom bag has a zipper top and then widens at the bottom so it will stand up with all of your makeup still inside. Perfect size to take away for the weekend with a few bits of makeup, a toothbrush and some travel size bottles.
You can make this for yourself, for gifts or even to sell - no restriction on the pattern.

I’m fourteen and I have been sewing for about five years and I made one of these and it was very fun and easy, I use them as pencil cases for school and it works perfectly!
👍👍awesome!!
How do I obtain the free pattern I'm quite new to all this?

Love this little bag. I made four in matching fabric for my three sisters and me and now I’m making one for my husband (in a slightly less feminine fabric although he doesn’t care what I use, but I didn’t want ours to get mixed up) just a couple of inches longer to hold the electric toothbrush case and his few toiletries. And I added inside pockets to all of them for those little things you may need to keep separate. What fun!
this is my go-to design for sewing a cosmetic bag! instructions are clear + easy and I love how this bag stands up on its own. thanks for sharing!
Thank you for this! I took up my mother in law's shower curtain and made a wash bag from the cut off. I've never sewn zips before and this explained it superbly thank you again!
Debbie, I first found this pattern online during Covid lockdowns. A lifesaver. Been a few years now and I am so happy to have seen your video. Has renewed my interest in sewing and I cannot wait to get back to it. I made a template for myself that I found so that will make the process even quicker. Thank you! Cannot wait to see what other easy sewing projects you have available!
Hi Julie, glad you found this channel, Deby is no longer with so-sew-easy.com since 2016 when she sold the blog and all social media tu me (Mayra) I have put 4 free patterns a months since then, hope. you find them useful and motivating. Kind regards, Mayra
Made many bags as gifts and I just love them! Your demonstration was easy to follow.
Thank You!
Thank you for the free pattern. Finally finished a bag which I played around with the size. Followed every step of your tutorial and got beautiful results, a couple minor imperfections with the zipper as this was the first time I did one. You have great talent for sewing and thanks again. So, the finished sizes came to approx 11.5" top, 12.5" bottom and height 8". Will be making more for gifts.
I printed the pattern piece at 75% and made a great purse size little bag for all those small things you carry around! Thanks Jennifer for this amazing technique next is a tiny one, pattern printed at 60%. A great stash buster!
What length was your zipper when you reduced the size??
.I loved following your instructions I have been sewing for years but quit for the last 15 and took it back up. I made an awful bag yesterday and really depressed me. But I pulled up my big girl panties and tried again today stopping and starting the TH-cam so I could follow you along. You gave great instructions and I am pretty happy with my little bag. I am going to make the roll next and use this for traveling. I am going to make a smaller one to match for carrying electronics, and then matching tote bag and handbag. I feel more optimistic today that I will get it done. I have made a few totes already. But thank you, thank you for the great instructions.
I love this pattern its so easy to follow, I've been making loads for our local cancer charity for raffle prizes, thank you so much for this pattern
Just wanted to say thank you for the cosmetic bag. The tutorial is easy to understand i've made these for all of my daughters friends for Christmas which saved me a fortune and used my fabric scraps.
K Mclaren I couldn’t find the link to the patterns can you share?
Where is the link dear
It’s nice to give handmade presents! X

I made two of these as Christmas presents and they turned out fabulous. It was my first time working with a zipper. My second bag came out better than the first but that’s to be expected. I really took my time to line up the layers when prepping to sew the zipper. Thank you so much for taking the time to post this video.
Just made this in less than an hour from cut to finish. SO easy and ADORABLE!!! Thank you!!!
You are so kind to give us the pattern and then spend the time to video the lesson. Thank you!
I just made this bag and it came out beautifully! It was so quick and easy to put together. Thanks a million.
Thank you so much for this video, and the free pattern! I've been wanting a zipper bag to put some of my most-used sewing supplies into (seam ripper, magnifying glasses, pen, seam gauge, tiny scissors, a little dish to hold my thread clippings, etc.). This zipper bag was just the thing, and it tucks right into my sewing machine case. Oh, and it was adorable seeing your cat's feet when he decided to come and make an appearance in your video! Hubby and I have two cats, and they also love to "help" when I'm sewing. 🐱
Your instructions are basic and simple. Just right. Finished my first bag. Came out great for a novice. Will make many more. Thanks.
I am officially in love with this bag..... I'm getting ready to make more.....the bottom of the bag lined up perfectly!!!! So many things you can add to it to make it unique.
This is an awesome base to get started with.
Thank you so much!
Just made my first one , I'm a beginner I sewed the zip on upside down first so had to fix that then i sewed my layers the wrong way around so had to fix that then I forgot to leave a gap to turn it the right way out 😂 its come out beautifully in the end really pleased with it and thank you for your tutorial its sew easy to follow and thank you for the free pattern also 🥰
Love the cat paws coming in at the end :)
Absolutely love this pattern , just finished another one. You are a great artist and teacher, tks for sharing your talent.
Straightforward and easy-to-follow tutorial, especially the handling of the zipper. Thank you!
I just found this and it is absolutely one of my favorite make up bags. This is perfect and makes up so easy! Thank you for the easy to follow instructions.
Love the kitty paws.
That's beautiful fabric. I can relate to talking and the animals come. So cute.
This is a great tutorial; I downloaded the pattern and saved the tutorial. I make bags/purses and include one of these along with the bag/purse. Sewing straight lines isn't necessary for this tutorial. Great just the way it is.
Very helpful. I even put a little side pocket in the lining. i think that they will make great Christmas gifts, especially if made out of a stiffer fabric. Thank you!
I am trying to figure out how to add a pocket in the lining. How did you do it?
thank you so very much for this video. Your voice is so easy and pleasant to listen to and you describe it very clearly with a minimum of words. I have made this bag many times for friends as a result. THANK YOU
You are the best tutor I have ever seen. Cannot thank you enough!
Thanks I made one this morning to keep my crochet hooks, came out nicely. You are very generous thanks for the freebie there aren’t many folks on TH-cam gifting these days. CHEERS.
Do you have the pattern? I can't seem to download it
I added a handle for a crossbody bag. It worked great. I used a dress zipper and I used it so much the zipper broke. The flat bottom with corners, made little things have a place to go.
finally a video that shows a bag with a neat inside liner no seams showing thank you. ;-)
I've made several of these so far, friends and family love them, they're going to make great gifts, filling with sample sizes of hand lotions, etc. Thank you for a great tutorial!
I found the link on Pinterest and I can't believe I made it. So easy and amazing results. Thanks for sharing 🙂
I'm glad I found you. I wasn't sewing but decided to go back to it. I just don't know how to put a zipper in.
I have made many zip pouches using this pattern. It is wonderful and well done!
That cat is so cute! He is controlling your work. Love that bag - thank you for this video!
Thanks so much Drbbie, I am excited to start making my granddaughters each a bag & maybe my great granddaughter.♥️
Love the bag! You made it look so easy. I’ve been sewing for 4 weeks so far, though haven’t had my machine for the last two weeks, as it’s being serviced (it’s my mum’s old Toyota 30). However, I’ve spent that time going to sewing classes and learning the different terminology, as well as using my sewing teacher’s machine. One more row of top stitching, add some Velcro and I will have made my first project - an iPad case made with woodland inspired fabric. Very excited! I’m going to check out your blog and find the pattern for this. Can’t wait to make it on Monday when I get my sewing machine back! Thank you! X
I can’t wait to make one. Your explanation is excellent easy to understand. It’s perfect. Thank you.
I made this bag I love the way it came out. I am ging to make a couple more. I like the shape the wide ness at the bottom helps it to hold more. I made this for one of my grandaughters she loved it. I may put some handles on the next one. I recommend this pattern
Great idea!
Good demo. Clear instructions, good sewing techniques. Thank you.
wow !! what a wonderful person you are for helping us learn this . i need some cute project bags to keep my many knitting socks projects in . Jesus bless you thinks for sharing !
I loved your video. FINALLY, I understand that lining. Thank you so much.
Thanks Debbie for sharing this wonderful demo of a cosmetic bag.
It was fun watching and following you stitch !!
I will stitch one soon. Great for gifting !!
Keep posting such 'simple to do' videos.
Thanks so much. Really needed the video tutorial as I'm prone to complicating things or doing something kooky. My sewing progress is slow but you've made my day today. Thank you!
Lovely and clear tutorial. I'm going to try this but make a bigger bag using a 12 inch zip. Thank you so much.
What a great little pattern & tutorial....I've made 3 already (just this evening) & added a cute embroidery design to the front of 2 of them. Great gift idea! THANKS for sharing...
Great to hear Glenda. So glad you enjoyed the pattern.
I made this bag this afternoon! Thanks so much for sharing this. It was a really easy, fast and fun project.
This is my go to pattern for gifts. I also spray it with scotch hard after I install the zipper to both sides since cosmetics tend to get all over everything.
This is a fun and easy bag to make! I have made several of them and plan several more as gifts. I love the design of the bag and the roominess it gives!! Thank you for sharing this tutorial! :)
Thankyou for the video, as a beginner I found it easy to follow and have now made 3x bags 😋
the tutorial was super easy..and made a few for gifts with tote bags... thanks for sharing the free pattern.
Thank you for this video! I made my first toilet bag with your help!😄
Good tutorial. I enjoyed making this bag. Haven't put in a zipper in years, but had no problem.
I am so excited! I can't wait to make this bag. Your tutorial really is a huge help to me since I don't have much experience with bags or zippers!
I LOVE this pattern. It's so easy and looks so nice. Thank you so much for showing us how to make it.
this was extremely fun to watch and looks like an easy but would love to see you sewing it! thanks !!
Thank you Debbie! I look forward to making your pattern. I am considering teaching some sewing classes for some neighbors. It would be a fun easy project to help them with.
I just finished making this bag for my daughter in law and love it! It's a nice size and easy to construct. Thank you so much! I will be making more of these for presents. :) :)
Cute bag. Easy to follow tutorial and free pattern what’s not to like!,
as beginner I really wish you would have included you sewing the bag on video.
Thank you so much sharing for this most gorgeous bag - I love it!
I have made many of these. They always turn out beautiful! Thanks for the pattern and tutorial!
I made this bag this afternoon, thank you so much for the instructions and pattern, I’m really please with the results.
Thanks for your clear and helpful instructions - and for the pattern.
I was wondering what I could make for Birthday gifts this next year, Now I know! Thanks so much!
Tried your pattern today and so chuffed with the end result. Thanks!
I just finished this bag to match a purse I made. It was an easy bag to make, thank you.
Great pattern and tutorial and so sew easy! I like how the shape is fuller on the bottom. Makes great gifts and also a fabric stash buster. Thank you!
Fabulous demo and a lovely bag. Thank you so much for this . Great for a novice like me. It certainly inspires me to carry on learning to sew when I know I can make lovely presents like this.
Thank you for this pattern, I made these for Christmas gifts and everyone loved them x
ive made loads of these bags,soeasy to make thanks to your tutorial
Thank you sew much for all of your tutorials! You are such a wonderful teacher. Very easy to follow and understand. Bless you and all your endeavors! 👗 ✂
I love this pattern. Thank you for sharing it. I make these for an Australian charity supporting domestic violence. Each year I make about 150 of them.
Hi, wow, you must be very good at making the bags. Have you made any with a 12" zipper? If so, do you have any suggestions. My first attempt and excited to start. Thank you 😊
I generally use a 10" zip, but it wouldn't be hard to increase the pattern a little, if you wanted to all you need to do is print the pattern at 110% or so. I did increase my pattern, but laid out the original then used a pencil and ruler to increase it all the way around by 1" . Hope this helps a little

Can't wait to make this this afternoon. I love these tutorials they are so easy to follow.
This bag was So-Sew-Easy! Normally I have difficulty with straight lines (I can curve with the best of them), but this video and pattern were just as you described. I made a Ravenclaw silk fronted version to match a messenger bag that I am creating, it turned out great! THANK YOU.
Yay -well done. I'd love to see it. Would you have time to take a picture and share with us on the Facebook page here - facebook.com/soseweasy

Where on your Facebook page should I share my photo? I can't find a post for this bag.
DewRiddy If you go to the write something on this page box, you can load a photo there and leave a comment, and it posts it over on the sidebar under Posts to this page.
Great review of putting in a zipper. It is amazing how soon you forget these skills. Thanks for the video.
Hi Deby, loved you up-dated cosmeticbag. The flowery patterns did not suit my daughter so I used some old jeans to make her one, with the improved version. I Also made the the flap a little larger to cover the brushes and a little bit of velcro on outer edges to hold the brushes in places. (just in case the brushed may slip out when closed up) .
Deby was unable to download pattern, however your tutorial was so good I didn't need the pattern. Thank you look forward to more of your projects.
Loved everything! The pattern, the tutorial and, of course, the cat too! Thanks a lot! Best regards from Bs. As., Argentina.
Thanks for making this tutorial - I have so much material (ordered some more yesterday) so thought I'd better start making some little bags as gifts for friends!
Just what I was looking for, a pouch that does not have exposed side seams inside, the Pro sewing shows only make them that way, this pattern is very easy and cute to boot.
LOVE, LOVE THIS BAG!!! Hi Deb, I am the one who wrote you with that question about the lay out; just lost my brain for a bit. Anyway, just finished it and it came out fantastic!!! Your videos are spot on as always! And MANY THANKS for your quick response. You could use a fancier fabric and use this as a smart looking evening clutch!
Please tell me how to cut angle sides ?
So glad to have the video. It made the instructions so much easier. Can't wait to try this.
A super cosmetic purse. I have made a few as gifts..
Wonderful explanation by Debbie. And thank you for the pattern!
You didn't show sewing the zipper and how to use the zipper foot. Any recommendations for a video to see how to sew the zipper? Thanks!!
Thank you so much for sharing the pattern and great tutorial 😊
Just finished this bag and it is so cute and fun to sew. Thank you for your wonderful video and patterns.
Love your videos. You really explain and show each step so well. Thanks so very much.
Thanks !! Just made one, the corners of my zippers look kind of wonky , but I'm proud of what I made !!!
Oh my God! I've been looking for this everywhere. Thank you so much.
My first zipper, my first bag, my first polyurethane lining... this really was super easy and the video tutorial helped so much. Thank you, Deby!
Your inspector appeared pleased or is a ham!! Good and easy pattern. Thank you.
Ah yes, he is my sewing critic. He insists on nothing but the straightest of seams and the softest fabrics.
Loved this tutorial, but I really would have loved to see you sewing too. But, it's great for all that thank you so much
+Mags Nash I've been criticised in the past for making the videos too long by showing the sewing part so I don't think it's possible to please everyone :-) If you have any questions you are always welcome to come join us in the sewing chat group where lots of the members there have made them and will be able to help - facebook.com/groups/soseweasychat/
+So Sew Easy I've seen so many tutorials but this is one of the easy ones. Thank you! Your video is just right. For those who think it's too long, there is always a fast forward. I'm just grateful you're doing this. I'm subscribed!
