I watched several tutorials on how to make drawstring bags, and your is by far the easiest! Thank you! I'm making Christmas gift bags for all our family's gifts.
Thanks so much! I learnt this method at school and I completely forgotten how to sew it anymore, now I remember I am sure my teacher watched this video as well!
Too cute, I was searching and searching for an easy way to make a simple drawstring bag and thank you for keeping it simple. Plus, your sewing partner, kitty, is adorable.
Thank you this bag saved me tonight! I sewed 24 of them for a market I have coming this weekend. This was a fast and simple sew. Each one took 5 minutes beginning to end. Hubby helped and put all the drawstrings in for me. Not as cute as your sewing partner but he’ll do.
I great tutorial. Everything about this was great. The fabric selection, the explanation, the music while you were sewing, and your adorable helper, so sweet.
My gosh, thank you for this video. I'm an intermediate sewer and every other video that stated it was "so simple" was confusing as heck. This was so easy to follow, I will always make drawstring bags this way now. :-)
Thank you for this. I am thinking of making one the size of a pillow, so it can be used as a pillow case as well as a ‘gift-bag’ to hold a quilt that I’m gifting to someone. Thank you for this great tutorial!
I found this to be a great tutorial and looking forward to making this cute bag. The directions are helpful and easy for me as well and I love your side kick kitty! I know you did this tutorial a few years ago, but it's great - Thank you :)
I have just made one following your tutorial. You are a clever lady. I will use it to pack my shoes in I'm coming to Colorado in july 2024 for my youngest son 's 50th birthday and getting excited. I live not far from Sydney Australia, be safe and thanks again. Janice
Thank you so much, Erica ❤ I am going to make lots of these bags using scrap fabric and use them as party bags for my daughters birthday instead of buying plastic party bags 😀 xxx
I just love your cuddly little helper!! I need to make some small bags like this to keep buttons in, so specifically searched for tutorials. Thank you for making this!
Thank you. This was a great tutorial. I made this tonight and while my sewing leaves a lot to be desired the finished bag is great. I'm going to make some more.
I just gave it a go, didn't size it properly but now have a very cute small but wide bag. This was my first ever project since highschool and has given me the confidence to keep going. Thank you :)
Thank you Erica. This is very timely as I am about to start sewing for the Christmas Shoebox for children in Africa etc. It's a good one to use all those left over fabrics for. Love it.
Oh my goodness, God bless you for making this tutorial. I was about to lost my marbles trying to find a simple one. Going to use this for Operation Christmas Child bags this year!
SUPER cute, SUPER fast, SUPER JAX!! I love him. He's a great helper! I was looking for a quick gift bag tutorial...you to the rescue! I especially love the twill tape for the pulls.
I don't know why, but drawstring bags always intimidate me. I make all sorts of bags and quilts, and yet a drawstring ... LOL This tutorial is awesome! Can't wait to try this, it looks way easier than I imagined. :)
I'm a real newbie & I'm so excited for this for my 1st project. Also thanx so much for showing how to get more bags & the position of the fabric....I don't now any of that yet. Tfs :D
Thank you so very much for an easy to follow visual and auditory tutorial! I made draw string bags for the weekly collection envelopes at my church. Perfect!
Hello Erica, thanks for posting this easy easy easy drawstring bag sewing tutorial. Also, as a side note love the way your cat tries to help you !!! Pam D.
Great video and I love your cat's contribution! I'm going to make produce bags so I don't have to use those disposable plastic bags and this was the perfect tutorial for that. Thanks so much!
I love this!!! Agree I love your kitty just as much!! 💕💕I love your videos and how you teach! You’ve inspired a passion of sewing in me that I didn’t know I had🙏🙏❤️My Gram taught me when I was about 14, but just a summer...I’m now 51, a nurse and knew I needed to help with masks. I found your video on how to make a medical face mask... well, you taught me again! I’m hooked! 💕💕❤️Not only did your teaching inspire me many families have been blessed with beautiful protection through this time! 💕💕♥️I truly thank you!!! Now I’m moving on to jelly rugs, bowls and this bag!! 👍🏻👍🏻🥰🥰
I see your supervisor was guiding you through your project. I've been looking for a pattern for a laundry bag. This is perfect! I just have to enlargen the pieces. Thank you! ❤ Happy New Year! 🎆
Thank you for this easy tutorial! This was my first project (besides pant patches) I did with my four year old! It’s not perfect but it’s functional and we had fun!
To say I am mediocre at sewing would be giving myself too much credit! 🤣 I followed your tutorial and made a large gift bag to use for a very dear friend's upcoming birthday, and it came out perfect!!! I am so pleased with how it turned out - thank you so much for this video!!
Haaa... precious Jax! I love it when my sewing partner visits. Thanks Erica, you have a great teaching style--love your videos and beautiful fabrics.! ;)
I was looking to make reusable gift bags because when you order from Amazon you can have it wrapped and their bags are pretty but $3 each and you don’t get to pick the design it’s usually the Amazon blue color. I thought to myself I can make those and give presents in those, but I wanted them well made and pretty so the receiver could reuse them if they wanted. Your video was what I was looking for 👏 Thank you for sharing 👍👍 Stay safe healthy and happy ✝️🇺🇸 Merry Christmas 🎄✝️
The bag was cute but the kitty just stole the show! 😍
Instead of just a "Like" button, there should be a "Love" button.
Erica, I have tried to watch 4 of these, and yours was the only one that actually showed a step by step view. Thank you.
I watched several tutorials on how to make drawstring bags, and your is by far the easiest! Thank you! I'm making Christmas gift bags for all our family's gifts.
