A petal bag (also known as an origami bag) is the easiest and quickest gift bag you'll ever make. It requires the equivalent of two fat quarters of contrasting fabrics, about 18" of pretty ribbon and about 20 minutes of your time.
So, to start sewing. For sewing cosmetic bagswe needcotton fabricin two colors. From fabric to cut out10squareswith a side of10 cm:5squaresof the same fabric, 5-from another.
Let's start with the block for cosmetic bags.
Putone square of brown fabricon the fabricsquarewith redsprigsfront side ofeach other.Stitched bydetails of thetwo diagonals.
Cut thestitchedsquaresverticallyin the middle.
Square cut on the horizontal center line. After that, cut the triangle on the diagonal of a square. We will need to get a little two-colored squares.
Thus we prepare all the squares, and then press out the seams.
Readyunitwill consist of foursquares,which are locatedas shownin the photo:
Sew the squares into a singlecanvas from 20 squares.
Quilt requires a patchwork front part (the one we just built from squares), the rear part of the whole fabric and cushioning between them. For sewingcosmetic bags as cushioning material usingthinsintepon.
Foldall three layers: first thewholeunderside ofthe fabricfacing you,thensinteponand finallypatchworkfrontpart of the frontside facing you.
Shear pins.
Performstitch. It can bedone by handoron a sewingmachine.Machine stitch a straight stitchis performedalong parallel lines.Whenstitchmake sure that, to the rear portion were not formedfolds.
It's time tomove on torevealjustcosmetic bags.To do thiswe will needcardboarddividers. Radius equal toaboutone block(consistingof 4small squares), two draw a circle.Distance from the centerof the uppercircleto the center ofthe bottomis equal tothe radius.
Getting machining the edges. To do this, cut out a strip width of 4-5 cm. Sew it toquiltedthe canvasas shownin the photo.
Dividein half andback downfrom the middle of4 cm and 4 cm right to the left. Pin up these pointswith pins.
Bend at the center line, turning to her side. We step back from the edge ofthe corner about 2 cm andstitched bya straight line.
Cut the corner.
