✨ Quilted Cosmetic, Overnight, etc. Bag ✨

I recently finished this lovely quilted fabric bag, and I’m so pleased with how it turned out! It’s just the right size to use as a cosmetic bag, overnight tote, or even for keeping sewing notions together when traveling.

The soft quilted fabric gives it a cozy, padded feel, while the light cream background with coral and gold leaf-like patterns adds a gentle, elegant touch. ๐ŸŒธ

It features:

  • A zippered top closure to keep everything secure

  • Two sturdy quilted handles

  • A neat inside pocket for small essentials

  • Fully lined with matching fabric for a clean, finished look

I enjoyed making this one — it’s always satisfying when a project combines both practical use and pretty design.

Here are a few photos of how it turned out:
๐Ÿงต✨

(Insert your three lovely photos here — front, side, and inside views.)


This was a simple but rewarding sewing project that can be made in different sizes or fabrics depending on how you plan to use it. I might try another one soon in a floral print for spring! ๐ŸŒผ

Have you made a quilted bag before? I’d love to hear what fabrics or styles you’ve tried.


Would you like me to adjust this post for your Sewing With Shirley-Ann Pearman blog (lavender–sage–beige tone) or for your Sewing, Quilting etc. blog (rose–mint–cream tone)? I can tailor the wording and style slightly to match your theme.

ZIGZAG STITCH

zigzag stitch
Sider Fusion

A zigzag stitch is a type of sewing stitch that creates a zigzag pattern rather than a straight line. It is commonly used for various purposes in sewing and quilting, including:

Uses of Zigzag Stitch

  1. Finishing Edges: Prevents fraying on the edges of fabric by encasing them.
  2. Stretching Fabric: Works well on knit fabrics, allowing seams to stretch without breaking.
  3. Decorative Purposes: Can be used creatively to add texture or design to a project.
  4. Attaching Appliques: Useful for stitching down embellishments, trims, or patches.

How to Sew a Zigzag Stitch

  1. Set Your Machine: Adjust your sewing machine to the zigzag stitch setting (usually indicated by a zigzag icon).
  2. Choose Width and Length: Adjust the width and length of the stitch according to your project requirements.
  3. Sewing Technique: Position your fabric under the presser foot and sew while guiding the fabric as needed.

If you need more detailed instructions or tips for specific projects, feel free to ask!



Quick And Easy Project Using Zig Zag Stitches
Sider Fusion

Here’s a quick and easy project idea where you can utilize zigzag stitches: Fabric Coasters!

Fabric Coasters

Materials Needed:

  • Scrap fabrics (cotton works well)
  • Scissors
  • Sewing machine
  • Thread (matching or contrasting)
  • Iron (optional for pressing)
  • Ruler (for cutting fabric)
  • Pins (optional)

Instructions:

  1. Cut Fabric Squares:

    • Cut your fabric into 5x5 inch squares. You will need two squares for each coaster.
  2. Layer the Fabric:

    • Place one fabric square on top of the other, right sides together.
  3. Pin the Edges (optional):

    • If you want extra stability while sewing, pin the squares together.
  4. Sew with Zigzag Stitch:

    • Using a zigzag stitch, sew around the edges of the squares, leaving about a 1/4 inch seam allowance. Leave a small opening (about 2 inches) on one side so you can turn the coaster inside out.
  5. Clip Corners:

    • Carefully trim the corners of the fabric (without cutting the stitches) to reduce bulk.
  6. Turn Inside Out:

    • Turn the coaster right side out through the opening you left.
  7. Press (optional):

    • Use an iron to press the coaster flat, making sure the corners are poked out.
  8. Close the Opening:

    • Fold in the raw edges of the opening to match the stitched edges, and sew a zigzag stitch across to seal it shut.
  9. Decorate (optional):

    • You can add decorative zigzag stitches along the edges or add embellishments for a personal touch.

Finished Size:

The coasters will be approximately 4.5 x 4.5 inches after sewing.

These coasters are not only quick to make but also serve as a practical addition to your home or as great gifts! If you have any questions or need further elaboration on any step, let me know!
