Choose your template<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p>You can find <strong>free paper templates online<\/strong> by searching for &#8220;PDF sack sleeping pattern&#8221;. There are both with zip and buttons on the back. Choose the one that seems easiest to do.<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>2. Prepare the material<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p>You will need:<\/p>\n\n<ul class=\"wp-block-list\">\n<li>Outer fabric (cotton, jersey, flannel&#8230;)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Inner lining (can be the same fabric or a lighter one)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Light padding (optional)<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Zipper or snap buttons<\/li>\n\n\n\n<li>Scissors, pins, sewing machine, needle and thread<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n\n<p><strong>3. Cutting and stitching<\/strong><\/p>\n\n<p>Once the pattern is printed, cut out the fabric as shown. Remember to add 1 cm of seam margin. Start by sewing the outer fabric and lining together (with or without padding), leaving the opening for the zip or buttons. Finish the edges with a zig-zag or cut-sew to prevent them from fading.<\/p>\n\n<p><strong>4.
