Chocolate Orange Gift Bag Sewing Pattern — Quick Make | TERRIE (Printed)
Sew a drawstring gift bag that pulls up into a petal shape
TERRIE is a quick, clever little gift bag: it starts as a lined square, and when you pull the two cords it draws up into a petal-topped pouch. It's sized to hold a chocolate orange, and it's just as good for a bath bomb, a candle or any small treat — a reusable, handmade alternative to wrapping paper.
What you'll learn
- Sewing and turning a fully lined square through a gap
- Folding and stitching the corners to form drawstring channels
- Threading two cords from opposite sides so they draw the bag closed
- Topstitching for a neat, decorative finish
Finished size
Sized to hold a chocolate orange or a similar small treat.
What you'll need
A fat quarter of main fabric, a fat quarter of lining fabric, and cord or ribbon for the ties. Cotton or polycotton works well. Topstitched with a 1/8" seam allowance.
