FINALLY, a sewing project. And this is something I’ve been thinking of doing for a long time. I got a yoga mat when I bought a subscription on a work out magazine (yeah, I need to start working out again) but haven’t had anywhere to put it. So I thought it would be good to make a bag for it. Then I at least have a place for it, and it doesn’t roll out by itself
I used the tutorial found here, which is great. It’s easy to understand the steps and I didn’t even have to print it, but remembered it by heart after reading over a couple of times. Mine has a bit more allowance round the bag though, because I was afraid of it becoming a too tight fit. Still, this is one of the most professional sewing jobs I’ve ever done, so I’m quite proud ;D

Very cute! I love that fabric. And you’re right about the allowance on the body. A tight yoga mat bag is frustrating (mine was just right) and will sort of negate all positive energy you got from meditation when it’s time to pack up after yoga classes. Hehe.
