🌼 Dresden Plate Drawstring Bag – PDF Sewing Pattern
One quilted Dresden Plate, one soft project bag – full-size templates – instant PDF download
 
A drawstring bag with a single Dresden Plate on the front, quilted all over, gathered into a contrast casing at the top. It holds a knitting project, a cut-out quilt block, a wash bag's worth of things, or the sewing you carry around and never finish.
 
It is also the easiest way to find out whether you like making Dresden Plates. One block, one afternoon, one finished thing you will actually use – instead of committing to a whole quilt to find out.
 
✔️ WHAT'S INCLUDED
✔️ Full-size blade template with a rounded tip, and centre circle template
✔️ Full-size bag pattern piece, on two sheets to join
✔️ 8-page large-print illustrated booklet, step by step
✔️ Materials and cutting charts in inches and centimetres
✔️ Troubleshooting table and tick-off checklist
✔️ Prints on US Letter and A4
 
📏 FINISHED SIZE
9 3/4 in wide at the base x 11 in tall (25 x 28 cm), plus a 1 1/4 in contrast casing
Dresden Plate 9 in (23 cm) across, 20 long blades, 3 1/4 in centre – it fills the front, as pictured
Cord loop: about 13 in (33 cm) long when fully cinched
 
✂️ FABRIC & NOTIONS
Cotton scraps for the blades – 20 pieces of 2 x 4 in, or a 4 in strip
Solid or textured cotton for the bag body: 3/8 yd
A contrast cotton for the casing and lining: 1/2 yd
Muslin for the quilt backing: 1/2 yd
Cotton batting, 26 x 14 in
Lightweight sew-in interfacing for the blade tips, a 20 x 4 1/2 in piece
Cotton cord, 1/4 in, 1 3/8 yd
Cotton thread, and perle cotton for the hand-stitched centre
Rotary cutter, ruler and mat, or fabric scissors
Straight pins
Iron
 
🪡 PATTERN DETAILS
🧩 Techniques: faced blade tips, wedge piecing, circle appliqué, all-over quilting, drawstring casing, lining
📄 File format: PDF
🖨️ Print at home – US Letter and A4
📐 Seam allowance: 1/4 in on the blades and circle, 1/2 in on the bag – included on every piece
🎯 Skill level: confident beginner
🔩 No hardware – no eyelets, no grommets, no toggles. The casing is fabric and the cord goes straight through it.
 
🛍️ WHY SEWISTS LIKE THIS ONE
One block is enough – you do not need a quilt's worth of fabric
Every blade can be a different scrap
Rounded tips are faced with interfacing, so all twenty come out the same
The contrast casing is what makes it look designed rather than homemade
It makes a very good gift, and it makes a very good gift wrapping

Questions makers ask

Do I need a special printer?
Nope! Every pattern is tiled to print on a regular home printer using standard A4 or US Letter paper — just tape the pages together and you're ready to cut. Prefer no taping? Each pattern also includes a large-format A0 file you can send to a copy shop, plus a projector file if you sew with one.
I'm a complete beginner — can I do this?
Absolutely. Our patterns are designed to be beginner-friendly, with clear, illustrated step-by-step instructions that guide you through the whole process. Thousands of first-time makers have sewn our patterns with no prior experience.
