Erica's SUPER EASY DRAWSTRING BAG // Sewing Tutorial! 

The bag was cute but the kitty just stole the show! 😍

Instead of just a "Like" button, there should be a "Love" button.

Erica, I have tried to watch 4 of these, and yours was the only one that actually showed a step by step view. Thank you.

Thank you this bag saved me tonight! I sewed 24 of them for a market I have coming this weekend. This was a fast and simple sew. Each one took 5 minutes beginning to end. Hubby helped and put all the drawstrings in for me. Not as cute as your sewing partner but he’ll do.

I love your sewing partner. He looks like a great QC inspector. ❤

Thanks so much! I learnt this method at school and I completely forgotten how to sew it anymore, now I remember I am sure my teacher watched this video as well!

Love making drawing bags in different sizes. Use them as gift bags or just to help organize kids toys. Thanks for sharing!

Too cute, I was searching and searching for an easy way to make a simple drawstring bag and thank you for keeping it simple. Plus, your sewing partner, kitty, is adorable.

Love your sewing partner. He must really like the drawstring bag!

Today was my first attempt at using a sewing machine. This video is so easy to follow and now I have a drawstring bag. Today was a success 🥰

This is such a simple yet adorable bag! I'm going to make a few for my shoes for packing in my suitcase for vacation! Thanks sooo much!

Thank you for this. I am thinking of making one the size of a pillow, so it can be used as a pillow case as well as a ‘gift-bag’ to hold a quilt that I’m gifting to someone. Thank you for this great tutorial!

This is the easiest bag making process I've seen yet! Thanks, this is totally doable!

Great video and I love your cat's contribution! I'm going to make produce bags so I don't have to use those disposable plastic bags and this was the perfect tutorial for that. Thanks so much!

I love this!!! Agree I love your kitty just as much!! 💕💕I love your videos and how you teach! You’ve inspired a passion of sewing in me that I didn’t know I had🙏🙏❤️My Gram taught me when I was about 14, but just a summer...I’m now 51, a nurse and knew I needed to help with masks. I found your video on how to make a medical face mask... well, you taught me again! I’m hooked! 💕💕❤️Not only did your teaching inspire me many families have been blessed with beautiful protection through this time! 💕💕♥️I truly thank you!!! Now I’m moving on to jelly rugs, bowls and this bag!! 👍🏻👍🏻🥰🥰

What a cute simple straight sewing lines the help your kids get started. The plus side is that you have a finished bag when you're done.

Love this! Perfect for gifting a handmade quilt using one of the quilting fabrics. Two gifts in one! 🤗

I found this to be a great tutorial and looking forward to making this cute bag. The directions are helpful and easy for me as well and I love your side kick kitty! I know you did this tutorial a few years ago, but it's great - Thank you :)

This was the tutorial I was looking for! Super simple, clean and easy. Thank you!

Cutest sewing partner! And this is such a perfect tutorial for a beginner like me! Thank you and stay safe!

Thank you. This was a great tutorial. I made this tonight and while my sewing leaves a lot to be desired the finished bag is great. I'm going to make some more.

My gosh, thank you for this video. I'm an intermediate sewer and every other video that stated it was "so simple" was confusing as heck. This was so easy to follow, I will always make drawstring bags this way now. :-)

I have just made one following your tutorial. You are a clever lady. I will use it to pack my shoes in I'm coming to Colorado in july 2024 for my youngest son 's 50th birthday and getting excited. I live not far from Sydney Australia, be safe and thanks again. Janice

I great tutorial. Everything about this was great. The fabric selection, the explanation, the music while you were sewing, and your adorable helper, so sweet.

Really enjoyed this video of a drawstring bag. And your little helper is so cute.

I like to make these for reusable Christmas and Birthday gift bags! It's always a hit.

I just love your cuddly little helper!! I need to make some small bags like this to keep buttons in, so specifically searched for tutorials. Thank you for making this!

OMG! So easy and cute. This beginner is excited to make a little bag for my husband.

Thank you Erica. This is very timely as I am about to start sewing for the Christmas Shoebox for children in Africa etc. It's a good one to use all those left over fabrics for. Love it.

I love this. I am making 40 pencil pouches for our church’s elementary reading program and this is the best tutorial I have found!

I like the design on the fabric ...brings out the bag itself love the bag overall

Thank you for the best and easiest drawstring tutorial I have seen, Erica. You've got yourself a new subscriber from Cape Town, South Africa ❤

I'm a real newbie & I'm so excited for this for my 1st project. Also thanx so much for showing how to get more bags & the position of the fabric....I don't now any of that yet. Tfs :D

Thank you. I really loved how you let us know how many bags we can get with our materials.

I taught this bag to a 10 yr old girl today, and made myself one too! A great bag for so many things...❤

So many try to complicate this project. I like ur approach. Very nice.

Oh my goodness, God bless you for making this tutorial. I was about to lost my marbles trying to find a simple one. Going to use this for Operation Christmas Child bags this year!

That cat is adorable and hilarious 😂

Quick, easy & pretty! My kind of bag. Possibilities are endless! Thanks. 🐾Jax loves his bowl.

I just gave it a go, didn't size it properly but now have a very cute small but wide bag. This was my first ever project since highschool and has given me the confidence to keep going. Thank you :)

Wow that was so easy, my brother wants me to make a drawstring bag for him and this tutorial is perfect thank you soooooo much!!!!!

Just what I was looking for every other video on drawstring bags have you jumping thru hoops and this is so simple

I love the bag. However, I LOVE your cat. Mine do the same thing when I'm doing something. They just want to help!! 😁

Thank you so very much for an easy to follow visual and auditory tutorial! I made draw string bags for the weekly collection envelopes at my church. Perfect!

Hi, love your kitty. This is so perfect to make for shoe bags. Thanks

Thank You so much your the only one I understand. Your a great teacher 👍😊❤

This is the first drawstring bag tutorial I've seen that actually made sense!

Not sure if I ever commented on this but this is by far the easiest tutorial I have seen for this bag. Thanks so much for sharing!

I was looking to make reusable gift bags because when you order from Amazon you can have it wrapped and their bags are pretty but $3 each and you don’t get to pick the design it’s usually the Amazon blue color. I thought to myself I can make those and give presents in those, but I wanted them well made and pretty so the receiver could reuse them if they wanted. Your video was what I was looking for 👏 Thank you for sharing 👍👍 Stay safe healthy and happy ✝️🇺🇸 Merry Christmas 🎄✝️

love that you also have a little orca (black n white) helper.

Love the bag. Going to use two pull strings at the top, though! However, LOVE your cat! Too cute!

I don't know why, but drawstring bags always intimidate me. I make all sorts of bags and quilts, and yet a drawstring ... LOL This tutorial is awesome! Can't wait to try this, it looks way easier than I imagined. :)

Thank you for this easy tutorial! This was my first project (besides pant patches) I did with my four year old! It’s not perfect but it’s functional and we had fun!

Love the bag. Thank you Erica for this tutorial! So cute to see Jacks!

Love your sewing buddy, I have his sister ( she looks like him) her name is Ava. Thanks this looks like fun will be making some for Christmas gifts.

I see your supervisor was guiding you through your project. I've been looking for a pattern for a laundry bag. This is perfect! I just have to enlargen the pieces. Thank you! ❤ Happy New Year! 🎆

Thank you for this tutorial. I tried understanding different videos on this but yours is easy to follow. Finally !

I'm glad I found a simple bag and this is exactly what I was looking for! Great pics and tutorial and I love your" sidekick" - thank you :)

So easy to make, really enjoyed it..super quick and super easy..thank you

Super easy! Thank you Erica for making my sewing projects a breeze. Titch (Australia)

SUPER cute, SUPER fast, SUPER JAX!! I love him. He's a great helper! I was looking for a quick gift bag tutorial...you to the rescue! I especially love the twill tape for the pulls.

I love this bag so fun to make with the kids easy and simple

Hey Erica! I'm coming back to say I made the bag! And I'm so proud of myself 😀

The cat in this video stole my heart! New follower!

OMG it can’t get any simpler than that!! Thank you so much for the tutorial!! You’re awesome!

Great tutorial! Like this version as it really will keep fabric inside from fray

I love your cat. It is so adorable.

Loveit, currently working on your zippered pouch. Just love quilting these things.

I like the way you sew up the edges much easier to understand compare to some other tutorial

Thanks so much for your video. I love, love, love these projects. I’ve tried making one, but now I will do your one, it will be easier for me.

I love this super simple project! Your cat made me laugh out loud like a crazy lady in her craft room! thank you for sharing! I have lots of fabric and will make these in all sizes for gifts!

To say I am mediocre at sewing would be giving myself too much credit! 🤣 I followed your tutorial and made a large gift bag to use for a very dear friend's upcoming birthday, and it came out perfect!!! I am so pleased with how it turned out - thank you so much for this video!!

Perfect! I'm going to make up some of these bags as gifts and embroider a hair blow dryer design on them. Thank you!

Love your cat! And super cute bag!!! Awesome instruction!

Perfect tutorial for a beginner project and refresher for me to teach my daughter!
