Handmade bags

 First attempt at sewing a bag with round bottom. 

Here's how I made the round bottom bag, template and instructions by kokka-fabric.com. The fabric I used here is from IKEA, it's from an old collection and no longer available. I think it suits this bag shape.

I also made a slight modification to the template and made a similar bag but with straight lines instead of curved sides, and not with round bottom but a regular gusset I usually make.

This is a nice bag to make as gifts but I realised I don't have fabric that is big enough to make a whole bag in one piece. This is because I usually buy fabric in half yards or fat quarters, I'm cheapskate like that. 

The only option I have is to make patchwork or halves type. We'll see...
