In this class, we will use our sewing machines to create a lined drawstring bag.  You will learn or reinforce basic sewing skills; such as a consistent straight stitch; creating a bag that has no raw edges showing; & making tabs to channel the drawstrings.  You will also learn standard abbreviations you will see in written directions such as RST (right sides together & SA (seam allowance).

 

Equipment needed:

Sewing Machine in working order

Basic Sewing Kit (pins or clips, scissors, rotary cutter, seam ripper, bobbins, etc), Sewing machine, power cord and foot pedal, fabric scissors, straight pins, a safety pin, thread (neutral color or matching your fabric selection), and a filled bobbin.  Useful, but not required; a rotary cutter with a fresh blade, extra bobbin; extra sewing machine needles, ruler (6” x 12” clear ruler), 

You should have a full working knowledge of your sewing machine.(how to thread it, how to replace the needle, what each adjustment knob does and why)  Please bring your sewing machine manual.  

 

At the end of this class, you should be confident using your machine to make simple straight seams with a consistent seam allowance.   

 

List:  2 pieces of 11” by 11” fabric for outside of bag (main fabric)

2 pieces of 11” by 11” fabric for lining 

1 piece of 2.5” by 10” contrasting fabric for tabs

1 piece of cording (40”) for the drawstrings

 

2 fat quarters would be more than enough for the outside and lining fabrics and are  available at Village Sewing Center with a 10% class discount.  Leftover fabric can be used later at home to practice by making more drawstring bags.  Contrasting fabric for tabs can be scraps you might have at home or you can use the lining fabric.
