Make a beautiful Vinyl Project Bag with Self Binding in no time! These practical bags are perfect for keeping your sewing and crafting projects organized, as well as for storing kids’ homework and reading books.
With the easy Self Binding technique we cut the time to do the binding in half, compared to traditional binding which let’s be honest can be a bit of a drag when making smaller projects. Whip up your own set of Vinyl Project Bags in a few hours.

This free pattern to make a Vinyl Project Bag measures approximately 14″ x 16″ and features a zipper (don’t worry they are super duper easy trust me) and a quilted back.
