Tools and materials:
- Towel
- Water bottle
- Scissors
- Marker
- Safety pin
- Sewing machine/needle and thread
1. Trace
Grab your towel and your water bottle. Lay the towel on a flat surface. Place your water bottle standing on the towel and trace the bottom.
Add an additional ¼ of an inch around the traced circle for seam allowance. Cut that piece.
2. Measure
Measure the circumference of the bottle as well as the height. Then measure and mark that on the towel and cut it out.
Fold that piece in half with the right sides facing in and sew the edges together making a tube shape that fits the bottle.
3. Sew
Pin and sew the circle of fabric for the bottom to the other piece with the right sides facing in.
Then turn it right side out. Fold the top edge in ¼ of an inch and sew the seam.
4. Strap
Cut a strip of fabric from along the length of the towel that’s about 4-5 inches wide. Fold in half lengthwise with right sides facing in.
Sew along the length, then use a safety pin to turn it right side out.
Sew the straps on the inner edges of the bag.
