Drawstring Bags

My girls are in gymnastics and they need little pouches or drawstring bags to put their grips, socks, and/or shorts in - ok, they dont NEED them, but it's cute for them to have them :o) Every now and then at competitions they have a chance to win a bag by doing a handstand the longest out of the other girls there competing. My girls have not won any of these bags, so finally I decided I would make them one! I searched the net for instructions on how to sew a drawstring bag (ok, Im not the best sewer but I can do a straight stitch), and came across these wonderful instructions! Now each of my girls have their own gymnastics bags to put their things in! I even made them personalized by adding each of their initials to their bags.









I have decided to make these little bags as goodie bags for my daughters birthday coming up instead of buying paper ones.
