This is the perfect project for your first ever sew. It’s simple, quick and results in a useful bag to use around the house. Since it will never leave the house, it doesn’t matter if your stitching is a little wonky or it has imperfections, because no-one outside your house will ever see it!
I use one of these as a laundry bag and another to store my recycling (here in Cornwall, we have to clean our recycling out so something like this is perfect for storing it until recycling day).
