I have never yet travelled in such drawstring bag style. Well! You have just gone and lifted the bar and I'm off to find the slightest excuse to package in fabric and trim goodness...

Snap....I'm thinking of doing something similar but in a slightly bigger scale to keep all my dirty washing in when I travel.It will be so much nicer than a plastic bag and more discreet too.Thanks for another fantastic idea.Will have to get out the crochet hook and do some trim for mine as well :) Barb.

Love every detail! Nothing is sacred in a suitcase any longer so why not have them in pretty bags.

Lovely fabric, and what a great idea to make shoestring bags. They sure do come in handy.

I love the bright colors (especially the birds) and the all of the trim.

Great idea for the travel bags! You always need extra bags to store stuff in when you travel.

Have a good weekend.

I love having drawstring bags at the ready for travel! I use them for shoes, dirty clothes and toiletries. Yours is so pretty! I love the feminine touch those trims add.

Oh, how very pretty!!! I think I will have to try my hand at something similar! The fabric you have used goes together beautifully :)

The drawstring bag is funky and functional.
