Gift bag made from upholstery sample

This little bag is one of my recent projects. I was gifting a couple of jars of homemade jam, so used an upholstery sample piece to make a bag.

The construction was quite simple, just sewing into a rectangle and then across the corners to make the shape. The stripes meant I didn't need to do any marking, just cut along the lines!

The straps were folded and sewn with a wide zig-zag stitch down the middle, as it is easier than methods involving turning and/or neatly placed straight stitching.
