Sewing: Drawstring bag/pouch

The holiday season is here.. So that means gift giving. From the time I learned how to sew, I became fond of giving handmade gifts. My current project is to make several batches of drawstring pouch. Instead of using paper wrappers that are thrown straight to the trash bins, I plan on placing my gifts in a drawstring pouch that can be re-used. 

I chanced upon Crafty Gemini's tutorial and tried it right away. https://m.youtube.com/watch?v=5A82qJnhPN0 

Here's my version. :)









I have the blue version of the same fabric pattern and cut some strips using pinking shears. I tied them up and thought, the pouch can be a gift itself. 😊

I hope I can make several of these. 😊
