Let's get started!!

To make this you will need:

1  18½″ × 18½″ (47㎝ × 47㎝)
2  4⅜″ × 10″ (11㎝ × 25㎝)

The pattern for making this can be drawn by yourself by watching my YouTube video.

Cut the outer and lining into 17¾″(45㎝) in diameter.

Fold twice and press both ends of this fabric.

Fold it in half and iron it.

Pin and sew the raw edge of the bias tape to the raw edge of the lining.

Place and pin the outer of the pouch over the top of the lining with the right sides together.
Leave a opening in the side.

Turn it right side out by pulling the fabric through the opening.

Press, pin and topstitch around all the edges.

Place the right sides together of the two pieces of cover and cut the ends rounded.  Leave a opening in the side.
Sew and trim the seam with pinking shears.
Turn it right side out by pulling the fabric through the opening.

Fold the handle pieces in half, wrong sides together to make a crease.
Then fold each edge in toward the middle and press.
Stitch along both long edges of the strip.

Attach the cover and the handle.

Load up your makeup, pull the string, close the flap!

YOU ARE FINISHED!

Happy sewing!
