Fanfold Bag

Tuesday, 22 September, 2026 @ 9:00 am - 12:00 pm

Free

A roomy bag when you need it. A neat little bundle when you don’t!

Come and make this wonderfully clever fold-away carry bag – perfect for sewing days, shopping, holidays, retreats or simply keeping in the car.

When opened, it becomes a generously sized, lightweight bag with comfortable handles and plenty of room for all those extras we somehow always end up carrying. When you’re finished, the bag folds and rolls neatly into its own compact pouch, secured with elastic – no separate storage bag to lose!

The clever design includes a zip closure, adjustable handles and a beautifully finished lined interior, while the fold-away construction makes the project just that little bit different and very satisfying to sew.

And the best part? You can complete it in just half a day.

A fun, practical workshop with a finished project you’ll genuinely use again and again – and it makes a fabulous handmade gift too.
