A missed opportunity

I have to try this project

I found this great tutorial whilst looking for something else, as you do.

I think that this is a fairly good translation from the Dutch and I am off to buy some carry bags from the Dollar store.

Required
• 3x plastic bag 50x60x28 cm € 1/ST. (Turkish shop)
• 4 m bias pink, 3 cm wide, € 1.80 / m 3
• 4 m bias light, 3 cm wide, € 1.80 / m 3
• 65 cm thick white twill tape, 4 cm wide € 1.20 / m
• yarn € 1.45 / spool
Time
2.5 hours
Price
€ 12.85
Method
(For 2 laundry bags, along washuisje 1)
• Cut two bags the handles and the upper surface of the zipper away.
• Short per bag in a side to 32 cm from the bottom, thus creating an asymmetric pocket.
• Cut out the third case 2 panels of 36 × 60 cm.
• Cut from a long side of both panels a piece of 20 × 31 cm, which is the opening of the laundry.
• Stitch the cut piece to the truncated side of the bags.
• Bies all seams around with pink or blue bias, except the top of the opening.
• Cut out the side panels of the third bag 2 pieces of 26 × 40 cm, which the flaps over the opening.
• Piping the flaps with pink or blue bias, and sew them to the top of the bags to longest.
• Work over the long sides with white twill tape.
