There is strong curved plastic (called "boning" in the Notions department in the sewing shop), that sits at the nursing mothers chest so she can look down at her baby as she's discretely breast-feeding in public.

You beginners can make this small bag, with these easy step my step instructions that have 16 photos I took as I was making a sample, plus drawings. Photos are right next to the instruction text step and numbered to match the text instructions. Includes pattern piece to cut out and pin to fabric to cut around. You can make the straight top or curved top. I suggest you learn the straight top first! Sewing in a zipper on the curve more difficult. Kids have made this one their own!

This bag sits up and has a wide opening so it's easy to get things out.

Bag measures about 8/5 inches wide, 5 inches tall. Use it for anything, not just cosmetics; think of all the things you can store in it for any age! Make for gifts, or as the gift bag. Decorate as you please, add tassel or charm to zipper pull tab.

I've been teaching sewing for 4 years to kids and adults and I found no good easy patterns to teach from that I liked, so I started designing my own. Students like them and I think  others will to.

This VERY POPULAR pattern is suitable as a FIRST SEWING PROJECT.

3 pages in all, 2 pages full of clear, large print, step by step instructions with drawings.

Skills covered: finding fabric grain, cutting straight, measuring & pinning folds, sewing straight next to fold, ironing, inserting elastic and cord.

This bag opens very wide when you lay it down. It would be great for the beach, groceries, or transporting a quilt or blanket, books, carry to a sleepover party. Two sides have elastic. The other two sides are drawn up in by the cord, which you can spread out wider when you set it down.
