The Gardening Tool Bag – Great Project For Father’s Day

The gardening tool bag is a great gift for Father’s Day –whether he’s already in the garden or aspiring to be.

For this project, I am using the scraps left over from my iPad backpack, so it will be very inexpensive to make.  However, if you want to splurge, use some wax canvas fabric for the ideal result, this will also increase the toughness and longevity of the bag.

Materials

• 1 yard of wax canvas or fabric of your choice. (psst.. there are some beautiful recommendations below from Fabric.com)
• 1 yard of fabric for lining
• 5/8″ Bias tape
• 2 yards of 1 1/2″ elastic
• Thread to match
• 1 yard of nylon webbing
• 1/2 yard of Ultra firm Pellon Peltex 71F

Tools

• Sewing machine
• Clover quilting clips
