Origami Inspired Draw String Bag

Origami Inspired Draw String Bag
I have recently been experimenting with origami using the folding methods to make useful items.  Here is an adorable origami purse I made from a tutorial online.  It is quick, easy, and cheap.  You can make this using  scarfs or napkins sewn together.  This purse would be so chic out of denim.  I will be making more of these altering the pattern to make it a little more unique as well as functional.

Things You'll Need
2 Contrasting fabrics  (1/2  Yard  each cut into 18 inch squares and sewn together .) Or use a contrasting lined napkin or scarf.  
1 Yard iron in interfacing
Measuring tape
Scissors

Straight pins

I thought it needed a button


I thought of the idea and searched if anyone has been making these.  Some quilt place made it and when I went back to copy the link there is something wrong with the link.  Here is the link in case they get it working: http:// www.quiltcetera.­com
