any direction this is the easiest type of fabric to use for drawstring bags if you re nervous about getting your pieces laid out right types of fabric prints i ll be referencing focal prints blender prints and neutrals throughout this post these can be a bit subjective but here are some examples of what these look like to me for the purposes of this post focal fabric good deal of interest typically larger in scale often with multiple colors blender fabric only one or two colors typically smaller in scale and with a repetitive design neutral fabric solids linen shot cottons chambray cork etc fabric selection shortcut my favorite method for choosing fabrics is to start with a single fabric and use it to choose the rest of the prints or accesories i m going to use for a project here is my very loose formula for deciding what type of fabric to use where on my bags exterior main focal fabric or medium scale blender exterior accent blender small focal fabric or neutral lining neutral small blender or small scale non directional focal let s walk through a few of the example fabric pulls below for this fabric pull i started with the exterior main fabric which is a one way directional focal print i used the colors in the focal print to choose the rest of the fabrics which are all blenders the blue print is the exterior accent the orange is the ties and the peach is the lining i was sure to choose a light colored lining fabric since the exterior main has a light background i don t want the lining to show through it for this fabric pull i started with the exterior main fabric which is a non directional small scale focal print i used the colors in the focal fabric for the remaining parts the orange small scale focal print is the exterior accent the dark purple blender is the ties and the light purple blender is the lining for this fabric pull i started with the exterior main fabric which is a one way directional focal print it has a limited color palette so i added in a few neutrals to this pull the peach blender is the exterior accent the cotton linen neutral is the lining and the natural twill tape is the ties for this fabric pull i started with the exterior main fabric which is a non directional blender print i paired it with two more blenders in the same black and white color palette the black print is the exterior accent and the white print is the lining to add a pop of color i choose a rainbow paracord for the ties for this fabric pull i started with the exterior main fabric which is a one way directional focal print i found a second focal print in a very similar color palette for the exterior accent and a purple blender that coordinates with both exterior prints for the lining the natural twill tape is the ties for this fabric pull i used prints from a single collection to make it nice and easy i started with a two way directional focal print for the exterior main i paired it with a medium scale blender for the exterior accent and a small scale blender for the lining the yellow twill tape is the ties for this fabric pull i started with the exterior main fabric which is a non directional focal print i used colors in the focal fabric for the remaining parts the pink blender print is the exterior accent the green blender print is the lining and the mustard paracord is the ties for this fabric pull i started with the exterior main fabric which is a two way directional focal print i paired it with two blenders that match the colors in the focal print the red dot blender is the exterior accent the cream blender is the lining and the natural twill tape is the ties i coordinated the colors in this pull but also the theme using a paper like blender with an envelope themed focal print using different fabric substrates i probably use quilting cottons 75 of the time when i make a drawstring bag i have a large stash of options and they re easy to work with the other 25 of the time i use other weights of cottons barkcloth cotton linen blends light weight canvas and chambray have all made their way into drawstring bags they aren t too different to work with the main thing to keep in mind is not to use something too heavy on the exterior accent if the fabric there is too thick it could interfere with the drawstring closure i don t typically use lightweight fabrics like voile or lawn since they wouldn t provide very much structure i ve used knit fabric before which actually worked better than expected find that tutorial here knit drawstring shoe bag tutorial cork is another fun option to really mix up your drawstring bag i used it on this bag as a bottom accent variation is in the expansion pattern it was fun to work with and the result is so cute i hope this post is helpful when you
