Origami Bag / Bento Bag

"The Bento Bag (origami bag) originates in Japan, also called azuma bukuro and there are many different ways how to put them together. The method I’m doing is for the lined but not reversible bag as you can see the stitches inside. I recommend you choose a light to medium-weight fabric for the outer layer, and a lightweight cotton for the lining. Or try denim or canvas for a sturdier bag that holds its shape better."
