How to sew a Japanese Azuma bag (bento bag / origami bag) - DIY tutorial

In this video, I will show you how to sew this simple and beautiful bag!
This Origami-like bag, sometimes called a bento bag, is made with just one piece of rectangular fabric.
Just like Furoshiki, you can use it as a wrapper and as a bag!
The sewing process is very easy and you can sew by hand if you don have a sewing machine.
The bag is perfect for grocery shopping and for gift wrapping. You can also use as a bento wrapper!
The knot I used to tie the handles is explained in this video:

So glad you showed how to make this. Thank you.

[@thegreenwrapper]

It’s super easy to make. We use it as a grocery bag and also for packing clothes and shoes for a trip. I hope you like it😊

I have made this several times for myself and my young daughter for our lunches for work/school. I have only just noticed you have a double sided one and will try this out as well

[@thegreenwrapper]

Yes! I’ve made a double sided one too😊 I’m really happy about how it turned out. From my experience, it’s better to use a thinner material at least for one side. If it gets too think, it will become hard to tie🧵🪡
