TUTORIAL: Sew Your Own Peg Bag

free pattern tutorial Mar 23, 2022

The spring weather has landed with absolute beauty this week in Cornwall, and I hung the washing on the line for the first time this year.  It is always a really seminal moment for me, a sign that the year is waking up, that warmer days are coming, and that the long beach days and lazy outdoor brunches that we love here, are just around the corner.

I actually really love hanging washing on a line, it's one of my favourite things to do, and a peg bag has been top of my tutorial list for ages. 

With today's gloriously warm sunshine, today is the day! 

This project is suitable for beginners and sews up nice and quickly in under an hour

You will need:

Childs coat hanger

1/2 m of curtain weight cotton or cotton drill/ twill or canvas

1m of minimum 2 cm wide bias binding
