Recycling a Curtain

When I changed to the new curtains this year, I was left with a lot of leftover curtain fabric.
That material wasn't suitable for the garment making, so I decide to make another bag.
I already had a lot of daily use bags, so this time I made a big duffle bag.
The theme was "recycle".

I wanted the bag to be soft and light, so the lining was sewn onto the curtain fabric without the interfacing.
Pocket was another recycle: Paella rice bag.

Sew the zipper to the body, and attach the side to the body.
Wrap the seam allowance with bias tape, and flip over to finish.

Recycled daffle bag.
I used a free hand to draw the pattern (the curved line was drawn with a pot cover) and the outcome was a little bigger than I expected.
I'm happy with this, but if I fill this big bag fully, it might become too heavy to carry...
