Welcome back to Sewspire!
Today, we are sewing a beautiful drawstring tote bag that is perfect for summer living. For this project you will need approximately 2 yards of material. I prefer to use home dec fabrics or heavier linen blends for this particular style of bag. I hope you enjoy the project and will take a moment to review the video and comment below. I will be back next week with another surprise sewing project. Feel free to make a project request if there is something special you have in mind.
Until then, happy sewing my Sewspire circle friends!
