Hey y’all and welcome to Sewspire!
Today I am here to show you how to sew a large bag with wooden dowel handles that is perfect for carrying your treasures to and fro. I personally really love this bag and am sure you can find a use for it as it is very spacious and sturdy.
For this project you will need to precut the following pattern pieces:
(4) 20″ x 21″ Body Panels (two of which will be backed with quilt batting)
(1) 3″ x 44″ Tie Closure
(8) 5″ x 8″ Dowel Tabs
Plus: a 36″ inch long 1/2″ wooden dowel cut in half
Approximate finished measurements:
16″ tall
13″ across the base
18″ across the top
6″ deep
I hope you enjoy the project and will like, subscribe and share photos of your finished bags with our Facebook community:
