You can never have enough bags right? Especially with a free sewing pattern. Beccy  from Wipster  used scraps of upholstery fabric  and an old pair of jeans to make this cute Bow  Bag. The top has a drawstring so it can expand  when you need it to, but draw it up for security  (and cuteness).   Materials:  • 1 yard x 12” main fabric (I used large  scraps of upholstery fabric) • 1 yard x 12” lining fabric (I used an old  pair of jeans) • 1 yard of ribbon • 5” elastic • A dinner plate Instructions:  1. Because I wanted the bag to be able to hold files/paper etc. I used an A4 sheet  of paper as a template. 2. Use a dinner plate to draw a curve  around one corner (you can adjust the  size of the curve by choosing smaller or bigger circular things).   3. Cut the curve. This is the basic  template; the straight edge on the right  is the fold line.   4. Cut 1 (back) piece on the fold and two  half (front) pieces. Add extra seam to these two pieces. Cut two  pieces on the fold for the lining (I  recycled a pair of jeans).   5. Pin the two half front pieces face  together and place a mark 2 inches  from the top, then another 1 inch  below that. This will be the opening for  the drawstring casing. Sew up front...
