Shell Stitch Drawstring Bag
Designed by Julie A. Bolduc
Pattern ID: p125005
Date Added: August 10, 2000
This lustrous bag is great for any semi formal occasion. If you made one in white, it can be used as a wedding reception bag for the bride. And this is quick enough to make a one, for each brides maid, in the color that would match their gowns. It is made in 3 sections. The main part of the bag is made first, then the bottom is made and stitched on, then the casing and top are made last on the first round that is made.
