Burlap Container Tutorial
There are so many things you can do with burlap. It's natural, flexible, holds its shape and just a pleasure to work with. Before you start, I recommend washing your burlap sack - it gets nice and soft then.

Step 1Determine how big you want your container to be. Multiply the diameter by 3.14 and that will be your circumference - that's how wide your rectangular should be. Then determine the desired height of your container and add half of the diameter (radius) and add one inch for stitching. Mine was about 27" by 16". I used interface but burlap is quite stiff so feel free to skip this. Cut your lining to be the same size.
-
Step 2Sew side seams.
-
Step 3Place this side seam in the center.
-
Step 4Sew the bottom so it looks like brown paper bag.
-
Step 5Turn your container and your lining right sides out. Align side seams together and begin sewing the top edges together.
-
Step 6It should look like this. Then insert the lining inside and sew along the top for a finished look.
-
Step 7Done! I love how it turned out!
