Today, I made a small-sized tote bag that has a lining but can be made simply. The feature of this bag is that it can be stored in a flat state when not in use, but when items are put in, the bottom is created to provide a sense of stability. It can be made in 10 minutes and even beginners can easily make it.

Place the right sides together of the outer and lining. Sew on both sides with a 3/8″ seam allowance.
Flip the layers so the outer bag pieces are right sides together, and the lining pieces are right sides together.
Fold the bottom of the outer layer by 2″.
Fold the front side of the lining in 2″, and the back side of the lining in 2″.
Sew with an allowance of about 3/8″, leaving an opening.
Turn out our bag through the hole that we left not stitched. After this, sew up this hole.
Put the lining inside the outer layer. And iron it. Topstitch all the way around of the top of the bag entrance.
