Drawstring Bags

All made in one weekend from scrap fabric I had in the quilting cotton donation bags.
Water resistant coated cotton, with cotton poplin lining (used up the 1 metre).

They're the same size, but I started the top of the casing 1 inch down on two of them for a ruffle with visible lining. Corners are boxed. Cotton twill 0.5 inch ribbon from stash. 
Glazed cotton 2nd hand fabric, I think this was a fat quarter, I made 2 sunglasses cases. Self lined so pretty water resistant.

Drawstring bags made in 1 weekend from scraps, the fir tree was a gift bag I made last year upcycled to use for individual Christmas decorations, which I'd made from (sadly unworn as I'd purchased for sewing photos) UK or EU handmade brooches, pendants, earrings and hemp twine*.
