This idea is not mine but I’m so happy that someone else came up with it and is offering the FREE pattern. Lorraine of ikatbag.com fame designed this wonderful Airplane Bag pattern for a bag for airline travel. She has some incredible patterns on her website, some free and some for sale. Her instructions are great, too! Granted, I did not follow the instructions as written but adapted her pattern for my own use. I do plan on making a few of these for family members if and when they decide to fly again. Did I mention the pattern is FREE?!
My bag is a simple version with no extra pockets, secure tie, carabiner slots, or magnetic snap closure.
I used a sturdy cotton fabric (in my fabric stash for 30-35 years!) for the exterior, satiny smooth fabric for the interior, grosgrain ribbon for the hanging loops, and leftover plastic cord from my upholstery projects. Plus two magnetic hooks to attach the bag to the metal door.
The plastic cording used in welting on cushions is pliable but stiff enough to keep the bag open whether full or empty.
The bag is the perfect size for our collection of face masks.
We keep it attached to the metal door that leads out into our garage so we can grab a face mask when we go out the door.
I never thought I’d ask this but where do you keep your face masks?

Wow! You are amazing as always. I just keep mine in a pile on my dresser!

We tidied our the sideboard during lockdown and now have a designated drawer for masks and hand sanitiser.

I have a friend who is a potter and she gave me a bowl that I keep by the front door.

lol I never thought I would be able to answer it! I keep them in a gallon sized ziplock bag in my car. When they come in, they go straight into the hamper and get laundered with everything else, then put back in the car.

Patti, for some reason I missed the link in your comment so am only just visiting today. Your bag turned out very lovely! The magnetic hooks are such a clever idea – especially since you can space them as widely as needed (and readjust!) to make the back of the bag nice and taut. So glad you included the link so I could come visit and see what you made! Thank you for the shoutout, too!
