    Round makeup bag with inside pockets-Free Pattern

    Accessories· Bags· Free Pattern· Tips

    26 Feb

    Hope everyone is having a good month so far. Sometimes, I go months without sewing a single thing and then some months I sew almost everyday! This has been a sewing everyday type of month for me. This week, I decided to make myself a round makeup bag that has pockets inside to hold my brushes and lipsticks etc. I love how it came out but will definitely change a few things the next time I make it again. In my next attempt, I will make this a bit taller to hold some of my tall brushes. I think I want to make it less sturdy so that it’s easier to sew. I will add my suggestions during the tutorial so that you can decide for yourself the changes you want to make.

    Round Makeup Bag

    I was debating adding a bow as the handle like I see in the stores but this was a lot simpler and quicker to do.

    Here is what the inside pockets look like. I made the width of each pocket based on what I wanted to put in them. So, for example, I have my blush in one, My primer in the other etc. I think for my next bag, I will make it taller so that I can put some of my makeup brushes inside the pockets.

    When I first looked at the pattern, I thought it looked too complicated! Your precise directions make it look duable. Thanks for both the pattern and photo instructions. I'm going to give it a whirl. Thanks

    I think my sister is getting a new make-up bag. Every year I make her one but by Christmas it looks so bad, I don't know if mine are not sturdy enough or she is just hard on them. Oh well I love her so much and a new bag for her is my pleasure!

    hi there, just seen this on craftsy and thought I have to try it! now I am an experienced sewer but for the life of me, cant understand the instructions. A few questions.. firstly, the pattern, the two side panels, are they to be cut out and then joined together to be placed on the material? in sewing patterns, the symbols you have on the two pieces are always for: " cut on the fold". if it is to be joined, are they joined end to end, or overlap to the arrows? as I would imagine that the length has to be pretty spot on for it to fit perfectly for the top and bottom circles. (should have paid more attention in maths class, then I could work it out). anyway, perhaps just dimensions given , like cut a rectangle 12 and a half inches x 4 and a half inches, eg.
    thanks,
    hopefully I can work it out. looks very cute.

    Stand up bags are made of various plastic layers. The essential crude material for these bags is straight polyethylene tar.
