Due to the small size of this bag, I recommend quilting cotton as an ideal fabric. Canvas is also great and more experienced sewists may want to give cork or vinyl a try.
Whatever fabrics you decide to use, make sure they’re suitable for your sewing machine. For domestic machines, it’s usually best to stick with cotton, especially for your first bag.
