This bag set is the perfect combination for our addiction to fabric and our love for cute bags and boxes! The pattern includes instructions for a 4 piece set of box bags: 1 large bag, 2 medium bags and 1 small bag.  I made one large, one medium and one small.  Three of the bags nest inside each other. Bags are fully lined with no exposed seams.

You will love the photos that accompany each step, making instructions easy to follow and understand.  The pattern is available for purchase at www.crafsy.com.  With two fat quarters you can make: (1) Large Bag and (1) Small bag, or, (2) Medium Bags, or, (1) medium Bag and (1) Small Bag, or, (3) Small Bags.  There are also bonus instructions for adding a cute handle (I didn’t add one to my bags).  Cutting instructions are very simple and I would suggest cutting out for at least two bags for the class, maybe even three because once you put the first one together, they all go together the same way and it becomes much quicker as you go along.  This will be a one day class so the charge will be $10.  If you are so inclined, you could also add embroidery to the top or side of the bags before completing them, just an option.  These were really fun to make and also give away!  See you in class!!

Bag dimensions are:

  • Large – 9 1/2” L x 5” W x 3 1/2” H
  • Medium – 7” L x 4” W x 2 ¾” H
