HOW TO SEW A PETAL GIFT BAG (EASY BEGINNER SEWING PROJECT) SEW AN EASY REUSABLE CHRISTMAS GIFT BAG

[@lprovenzano4101]

Is it 1/2" or 1" seam for petals? You first said 1", then changed to 1/2".

Nice catch! It really depends on how thick your cord/ribbon is. But I would do a 1" seam for the petals. Sorry for the confusion! Happy Sewing💜

I have way too many Christmas fat quarters, this will help me destash!

So glad to hear it Nancy! I never considered that I could use this to use up some of my stash....great suggestion!

Awesome, Tamara!

Thank you!!

How do you determine the sized of your petals for let’s say - a 12 x 12 pouch or other sized pouches . And the one inch seam across the petals is the normal Seam for the ribbon or cording.

So no matter how big you want your finished bag your pedals are only 3 inches...what is the finished size of the bag you used the 17 inch squares? Thank you for sharing

Great little bag! How much ribbon would you suggest is needed for each size bags?

[@TamarasJoyDIY]

Thanks Sherri! I does depend on what size you make but I measure a side, times it by 4 and cut about that much as I like to make a nice bow on it and want to have enough ribbon when it is pulled open. Hope that helps! Happy Sewing!

Errrr...make your mind up! You said twice a 1 inch seam...then contradicted yourself by saying a Half inch seam! Which is it?
