I only found one pattern but it isn't a very good one. I'm a newbie at sewing and would like to follow a pattern for a drawstring-type of gift bag, one for general gifts and one for a wine bottle. If anyone knows of a free pattern on the net, pls let me know URL.

It's probably really simple for experienced sewers, but I'm not one and need to follow a pattern. But don't want to pay for something like this.

Thanks.

Go to

formatting link

and download their free "Wild Things"program. It will generate patterns for any size bag you need. It hasbasic construction information in the help files.

Wow, thank you! That is a great program! I read through a lot of the posts yesterday and saw it mentioned once or twice but didn't know what it would do. Thanks for letting me know about it.

I just printed out a gift bag pattern to the exact size I needed. Awesome! This Xmas I'm hoping to give everyone their gift in a nice gift bag made by me.

Cheers!
