I had quite a bit of fabric left after making my daughter a dopp kit yesterday, so I moved on to searching for tutorials for cosmetic bags. I found several, all with great qualities, like this beautifully lined bag from Flossie Teacakes.
I also liked this quilted version from Terri’s Notebook.
But I ultimately settled on this cute bag from Sew Like My Mom. I liked the unusual shape and side zipper.
This little bag was pretty easy to make, nicely lined and didn’t require much fabric. And, like the dopp kit yesterday, Codi has already added it to her travel gear.
I actually still have some of these fabrics left, so I might have to find another project to use them on. Tomorrow, however, I’m moving on to my last two fat quarters and a new tutorial!
Hi Staci,
Great looking collection of bags! Kim just got a new makeup bag in the mail yesterday. (she’s still perfecting the art of sewing the zipper in herself, but don’t tell her I said so)
I like the colors of the bottom two myself.
Your blog looks awesome and it looks like you’ve got a ton of great tutorials. I’m making a note of it.
Have a great day!

The bright colors always draw me in too, Tim. Thanks for visiting!
Staci, I have been following your blog for some time and I have to say this YOU ARE THE BEST!!! Thanks so much for all of the things you share with your readers. Laura
Thank you so much Laura! You just made my day!
What about a case for glasses or sunglasses? Or a coin purse?
Great ideas Trudy! I was also thinking one of those little tissue holders might be handy.
Great choice, thanks for the link! I love the cosmetic bag, that fabric really is lovely
Thanks Wendy!
