Allergy Medicine Bag

I made this Allergy Medicine Bag a couple of years ago when i was first diagnosed with allergies to hold keep my new medicine organized. The design is meant to represent the trees, grasses, and weeds that i am allergic to :)


I have made many variations on this bag to use as a pencil case or medicine bag. The material is sew-able vinyl and is located on the back shelves of most craft stores. I use colored floss to hand sew the edges together in a coordinating color. The design is then sewn to the front of the bag with another piece of the clear fabric with the same coordinating floss. Finally the zipper gets sewn in with the same floss.



Another design option is to cut a flower/scene/etc from a fabric you like and use that as the front image.
