Budget: 30 euros

Steps
1. Draw two 50 cm squares in your tissues, one 70 cm by 8 cm rectangle and two 15 cm by 8 cm rectangles. Cut out by adding 1 cm seam allowance.
2. Pin the square of fleece on the underside of the fabric inside your bag.
3. Turn everything over, and draw some patterns on the fabric area to create the quilting.
4. Sew the machine in the straight stitch, according to the patterns drawn. Your fabric is now quilted, and the fleece is in place.
5. Fold the three rectangles of fabric in half lengthwise. Then sew at the right stitch at the edge, to create a tube. Turn them over so that the seams are invisible.
6. Pin the long band diagonally across the quilted fabric. Form two loops with the other two bands, on the two opposite opposite corners.
7. Now pin the square of fabric for the outside of your bag on the quilted fabric. Make sure to pin the two fabrics right side to side.
8. Sew in the right stitch all around the bag, taking care to take the ribbons of fabric in the seams. Leave 10 cm opening and cut corners to be able to turn the bag over.
9. Flip your bag over and close the opening with a few dots in your hand.
