Placemat Bag Tutorial 2

Back in February I posted a placemat bag tutorial.  Today I wanted to share a new tutorial I made for a placemat tote bag that is horizontal instead of vertical.

I made a placemat bag like this one a few months ago, but never posted a tutorial.  When I found two bright green placemats for $1 each I thought they would be perfect for a new bag and to make a tutorial.

I embellished the bag with this felt flower.  I saw a tutorial for how to make a flower like this on Lu Bird Baby.  However, I didn’t have the tutorial in front of me when I was ready to make the flower.  Plus, I wanted to use my sewing machine to make the gathering stitch.  So, I totally was winging it on the flower. 

If you want to download and print my new tutorial please click the link below.  If you make one of these bags I would love to hear from you.
