Bags of all shapes and sizes are essential for carrying around all of our bits 'n' bobs: we have wipeable pouches for make-up, canvas totes for weekend shopping sprees and, of course, larger-than-life holdalls for our fabric stash! We simply couldn't do without them, so why not stitch a colourful accessory to brighten up your outfit? Begin by making a start on our handy bowling style!
1 Download the template from sewmag.co.uk/templates. Add a 1cm seam allowance, and cut two pairs from the canvas, wadding and lining. Pin the panels, then sandwich the wadding between the outside fabric and lining.
2 Draw a vertical line down the centre of each stack, and topstitch with pale thread. Set a quilting bar to 2cm, then sew parallel lines either side of the centre to secure the layers. Zig zag stitch the edges, and trim the excess. Create two pairs of canvas and lining for the gusset, 6cm x 36cm, and fuse interfacing to the canvas reverse.
3 Sandwich one edge of the zip between the outer material and lining, right sides
