Just an idea. What about making a tic tac toe game for the middle of the circle. A small bag could be included to hold the pieces for this game. Also a race track, using iron on fusible web to play with cars on it. There are endless possibilities for this bag.

In reply to Val. Hello, I made some for cosmetics and made the circles 18”.

Love this idea! Made one for my grandson who loves all vehicles. Since I made it extra large (1.5 m.), I left an opening for the rope on two sides of the mat.

I love this bag and will try to make one for my grandson. I haven’t sewed in a very long time and not sure how sewing a straight long tube for the rope will make a circle around the bag without bunching up. Do I sew it together a certain way? Is the fabric cut a certain way?

I don’t! That’s a great idea though. I would make it significantly smaller – probably a diameter for 12″ or so.

Hi! I love this toy bag! Do you have any suggestions to make one for cosmetics, or even for jewelry when traveling? I’m unsure how large to make the circle and the rest.

Thank you for such an easy to follow tutorial! Made this for a friend for her baby shower. I used minky fabric on the back and snuggle flannel for the top so it’s extra cozy.

In reply to Britt. Hi, Britt! Hopefully I saw this in time :) The tube should be on the inside when you sew them together :)

Hey Katie,

I have no idea if you will see this comment, so by the time you’ve read this I may have continued on and quite possibly have ripped a bunch of stitches out… But, I have a question that I hope isn’t too “noob-ish”… :’)

I’m in the process of following your tutorial, and I’m about to sew together the two circles. I am a little confused, though, about whether the tube should be on the inside or the outside when I sew them together. I am struggling to visualize how the tube ends up on the outside once the circles are sewn together and once turned from inside out.

My sewing skills are pretty minimal; this is one of my first few projects!
