Batiks make a lovely bag, but any fabric will work. I caution using upholstery fabric, if you have not sewn with it before. Might be great for the second bag.
Thread to match fabric
5 inches of Velcro
1 yard of 45 inch fabric or ½ yard of 54 inch fabric depending if using upholstery fabric which is wider.
If the fabric is laundered, use spray starch when iron so the crispness will be restored
½ yard of 45 inch fabric or ¼ yard of 54 inch fabric
24 x 24 inch heavy interfacing or batting.
