A Bullion Stitch Bag for Children

July 19, 2016 · Rhelena · 2 Comments

Here is a cute child’s bag for small toys and trinkets. It might also make for a cute gift bag for small children’s books, or for the teacher.

And, if you make the straps longer, you could also use this as a handy purse for your phone and keys. Just make sure to line it if using it for keys as they could wiggle their way out without notice.

As you can see, I only used one color, but I’m thinking it would look lovely if you used two colors for a nice two-toned look.

This bag for children has not been tested by anyone other than myself, so let me know if you run into any problems. Thanks so much.
