Japanese Knot Bag Revisited

I so enjoyed making the Japanese Knot Bag for my last give-away that I just had to make one for myself.



It’s a fun little reversible bag to carry on a summer night out.



I used two different fabrics from Judie Rothermel’s “Aunt Grace Ties One On” collection for Marcus Brothers Textiles, Inc. This first is #163.



The reverse side is #164.

I love the fabric you used for this! Looks like a really nice bag to use this time of the year as it's so lighweight and bright and colorful!

I think this is ultimately very versatile and practical. I remember my mom making something similar decades ago -- she did all her sewing by hand because she couldn't afford a machine. She had a very crafty and practical nature. This reminds me so much of that.

Such an adorable bag. I love how it gently clings to the wrist and looks so effortless to carry.
