lemon gift bag

This is what I did for my friend Sa-Su's birthday.

This is the present, a shower gel from L'OCCITANE.

I wanted it to have a special packaging...

...so I made this simple lemon drawstring bag!


I made the bag with this mini sewing machine. Look at how small it is!
It can only sew a normal stitch, no interlocking whatsoever. Just straight through.
This is the only sewing machine I currently use until I get a "real" one someday soon :)

    @Jo: thank you Jo, I had fun making it! It was the first time I've used the mini maschine to do some "interlocking" (pull the foot up, turn the cloth, put the foot down, sew, pull the foot up, turn the cloth, put the foot down, continue sewing..ufff...XD)

    @mamie: iya emang kira2 cuma segede setrikaan, makanya yg nunggu di situ musti ditimbang biar kalo ternyata berat bisa langsung beli di sini aja :D
