Divided Grocery Bags

Making Grocery Bags is an excellent way to bust your fabric stash—especially for 1/2 yard cuts of fabric.

But it’s also entirely possible your stash is busted already and you don’t have enough to make the main panels for these bags.

But never fear! You might not need to buy more fabric (unless, of course, you want to…) because another option for making these bags is to make the exterior pieces from two fabrics.

Not only is this a good option if you don’t have enough fabric, it’s also a great way to use less of a special fabric that you want to use more sparingly.

Here are dimensions to cut the pieces for making these bags from two fabrics. Just cut what is listed below and sew the pieces together using a 3/8” SA.
