Smocked drawstring bag


I've been experimenting with smocking, trying things other than cushion covers! And I came up with this! There's about 2 hours solid work on the smocked area, and I wasn't sure about the spots but they really work and give a modern look to the technique. This design in called 'waves'... I think you can tell why!
