Really nicely done. Have been eyeing my tape measures thinking about making a cosmetic bag. Does it make a tight closure?

Yes it does snap shut if you want more snap you can add two pieces per side for a very tight snap.. I got the tapes at the dollar store for a buck each . To cut up it is a great price. The other one my hubby ruined and I claimed it. Suzanne

I had a look at the tutorial and it seems easy enough so I'll give it a go. Just when I thought there was no other way of making bags . . . I like the fabric in your bag very much.
