Mass Bags for Little Ones
A dear friend sent me some beautiful material, my plan was to make Mass bags for my little ones.
Yesterday I completed them!
An A4 size they are just the right size to fit prayer books in. The children can’t wait to use them.
I had plans to give you a quick tutorial on making the bags, they were so easy once I worked it out. Unfortunately I can’t retrieve the photos off my camera so it will be all verbal.
The material was a metre length, I cut into four rectangles. Turning right sides together on the fold I only needed to sew along one side and the bottom. I also cut four rectangles of four different fabrics and made lining bags. Turning the lining bag inside out, I placed it inside the outer bag. I turned the top of both bags inwards and sewed around the top pressing a nice edge. I had purchased wide tape for the handles, as I sewed the top edge I sewed the ends of the handles on both sides of the bag, between the two bags at the top.
So quick and easy. And looks so lovely.

These are very lovely. I will have to make some of these for the littles for Christmas. May need to ask you some more questions on how to do.
