Matching Game w/Drawstring Pouch

Prepared by Joanna Armour ( www.stardustshoes.blogspot.com ) For personal use only.

Use a ¼” seam allowance unless otherwise noted.

Gather materials for the cards:

 1-1/3 yards of CX3825_Blue Silo Kids Vignettes fabric. Make sure at the cutting

counter to get 6 complete rows of the motifs. This amount will yield enough repeats

to make two sets of the matching game. Any fewer than 6 rows will not give you

enough repeats to make one set.

 Two sheets 14” x 18” InnerFuse double sided stiff fusible interfacing.

 2/3 yard of CX2490_Blue Dumb Dot for the back of the cards.

1) Make the cards:

You will be using the square motifs to make

eight cards (4 pairs).

Cut around each card leaving ¼” edge around

the frame. Cut a piece of stiff fusible

interfacing and a piece of backing fabric to

the same size as the front piece.

Following the instructions on the InnerFuse

package to permanently fuse the front and

back fabric to the interfacing. When cool,

pink around the edges.

2) Gather Materials for the Bag:

For the outer body of the bag you’ll need two

pieces of fabric 13” x 13” (CX3821_Blue

Boys Play). These need to be interfaced with

lightweight interfacing.

The lining of the bag requires two pieces of

fabric 13” x 13”. (CX3295_Brown

Lolli Dot)

Two pieces of fabric 2” x 13-1/2” for the

casing. (CX2490_Blue Dumb Dot)

Two pieces of fabric 2” x 34” for the

drawstrings. (CX3821_Blue Boys Play)

3) Create the Outside of the Bag:

Using the outer pieces, with right sides facing

sew down one side, across the bottom and up

the other side, leaving the top open.

Place a finger in one corner and make a point

as pictured. Make sure the side seam is

centered and also lined up with the side seam

underneath (peek inside to check). Iron flat

and pin in place.

Measure 3-1/2” down from the tip of the

point to either side. Connect the dots to

create a sewing line and sew directly on the

line, reinforcing by backstitching at the

beginning and end of the sewing line.

3-1/2”

Trim off the corners to remove bulk. Turn

the bag right side out.

4) Create the Lining:

top

The lining is made in the same way as the

outer body. However, when sewing down

one of the sides, leave a two or three inch

opening near the top for turning.

leave

open

Create the box corners in the same way as in

step 3, above.

Iron all seams open.

5) Attach the Lining:

The outside of the bag is already right side

out. The lining is inside out. Place the

outside of the bag inside the lining so that

right sides are facing. Line up the side seams

and pin in place. Place pins every 3 inches

around the top.

Sew around the top of the bag.

Iron the seam open.

Using the opening in the lining, turn the bag

right side out and push the lining into the

body of the bag. Iron around the top so that it

lays flat. Don’t forget to sew shut the

opening in the lining!

6) Create the Casing:

Fold the 2” x 13-1/2” fabric strip in half lengthwise and iron flat to create a center crease.

Open it up, then fold and iron down either side of the fabric to meet the crease. Finish off

one end by folding it down ¼” , refold the sides and press flat as pictured.

Line up the casing 1” down from the top of

the bag. The finished side of casing should

be about ¼” from the side seam. Pin in

place.
