This project included many "firsts" for me - first time using piping, first time with a zipper, first pleat, first project including lining. So there was a huge learning curve. I looked at a bunch of instructions online and found a very cute pleated make up bag at Charm Stitch. I liked the size and the pleat and the overall look of these bags. I made several, trying to improve my sewing skills and I think they are getting better! I won't try to do any explanations, as I'm still learning myself, but hopefully this will inspire you to try something in the sewing world you haven't tried yet!!
First Attempt - some unpolished details.
Second Attempt - This one actually turned out pretty well and is my new makeup bag!
Third Attempt - I tried a plain rectangle bag, turned out well. It was the most popular, when I showed my mom and sisters.
Fourth Attempt - Still not perfect, so I keep trying!
Share what you've been attempting - even if it's not perfect yet!
