Tea Towel Toy Bag

So I bought this cute little Gold Coast tourist tea towel from Salvos. Originally I thought about sewing it onto a skirt for a fashion item, but didn't really look right when I tried it, so what to do with this little thing?


Then I came accross Curly pops blog with a tutorial to make a drawstring tea towel bag, and thought that was a great idea.

We're off to the Gold Coast in November, so I made the tea towel into a drawstring toy bag for my son to keep him entertained on the flight. I have started to store some small toys in the bag that I have op-shopped, and will bring the bag out when we take off... hopefully that will keep him busy! How cute are the little lorikeets?
