Sizes: small cosmetic bag - approx. 20 x 11 cm, large cosmetic bag - approx. 26 x 15 cm.
YOU WILL NEED:
Small cosmetic bag: 0.40 m fabric 140 cm wide (for example, brocade); 1 detachable metal zipper 30 cm long; non-woven lamifix 0.50 m wide 45 cm (Freudenberg); 1 m oblique for edging allowances.

Large cosmetic bag: 0.50 m of fabric with a width of 14.5 cm (for example, fabric with golden lurex); 1 detachable zipper 40 cm long; non-woven lamifix 0.65 m wide 45 cm (Freudenberg); 1.20 m oblique for edging allowances.
Additionally for both cosmetic bags: matching thread for sewing; burda paper with raster mesh (for making life-size patterns) or tracing paper.
DESCRIPTION OF WORK
According to the dimensions in the drawing (see at the beginning of the article next to the photo of the model), make patterns of both cosmetic bags in full size. The dimensions of a large cosmetic bag are shown in parentheses in the drawing.
Place each pattern on the appropriate fabric and cut with large allowances.
Iron lamifix first slightly on the wrong side of the fabric (see manufacturer's instructions). Attach the pattern again (do not pin it!) And cut out the part of the cosmetic bag with allowances along the contours of 1 cm wide. Remove the paper pattern and carefully laminate the iron according to the manufacturer's instructions.
Neaten both longitudinal sections (A) of each cosmetic bag and iron on the wrong side to a width of 1 cm. Open the zipper. Stitch the zipper halves under the ironed longitudinal sections (A) so that later the zipper is visible to a width of 1.5 cm. Close the zipper. On both sides, cut the B slices with their faces and grind. Allow seam allowances with a slanting hem. For the corners of the cut C from all four sides, chop and grind, with the side seam lying exactly in the middle. Allow seam allowances with a slanting hem.
If desired, decorate the zipper slider with a strip of fabric and / or strung beads.
