New Make: Caitlin Drawstring Bag

Do you follow Minki Kim on Instagram?  She makes the most gorgeous projects and fabric.  I have always wanted to try making her patterns but she makes them look so beautiful, I wasn't sure I could follow her patterns and make it look as good as she does.  But, I decided to try some of her patterns out and see how it went.

Yesterday, I made the Caylin Drawstring Bag.  It was such a fun pattern!  And, it turned out really great!

I made it using a linen and prints from Best Friends Forever by Stacy Iest Hsu.  I adore this fabric collection and I have been wanting to make something for my youngest daughter with this fabric so this project was just what I needed to use it.

The pattern looks really hard and, to be honest, I felt nervous making it (lol) but it really wasn't hard and the directions were easy to follow.  I couldn't find me wonder clips so I used pins and they worked the same.

You can find the Cailyn Drawstring Bag pattern on Minki's website- HERE.

And, I think I am going to be making a few more of these right away because my other kids each want one and I'd like one too!  I am also planning on making the Moments Zip Pouch and the Claire Zip Pouch.  I love making zipper pouches and these two look so pretty!

Talk to you soon,
