Essential Printables Every Bag Maker Needs: Download Bag Sewing Templates Collection
If you love sewing bags, I have something that will help you sew easier, quicker, and better bags- four sets of printable templates!
I created these printable bag sewing templates for myself first — out of pure frustration. I was tired of wasting time calculating, measuring, and drawing.
Now, I’m so happy to share them with you, because who doesn’t want to sew beautiful bags with less effort?
And let’s talk about zippered pockets — they’re such a must for any bag, right? But they can also be the part that gives us the most trouble. With these printables, that changes completely. Instead of hating that step, you’ll love adding zipper pockets and might even start including them in every bag you make!
These simple, printable tools help you sew faster, more accurately, and with beautiful, professional-looking results — every single time.
These are the four essential sets of bag sewing templates that every bag maker will love:
- Rounded Corners Templates
- Cutting Corners Templates
- Zipper Opening Templates
- Zipper Overlays (+ complete tutorial)
Let’s take a closer look at how each one can help you make gorgeous, high-quality bags with ease.
🔹 1. Rounded Corners Templates
These templates help you create smooth, symmetrical curved corners — every time. Just trace the shape, cut, and sew, following your instructions.
Whether you’re working on flaps, bag panels, or pouches, these templates are so handy. No more running around the house looking for a cup, or lid, or spool, that’s just the right size for your corner curve!
👉 Use it every time you need to round a corner.
🔸 2. Cutting Corners Templates
There are many ways to create the corners of a bag or pouch, but this technique is by far the most common.
If you’re a quilter, you might be used to using a ruler — measuring, aligning, and double-checking everything carefully.
But there’s an easier way! With these cutting corners templates, you don’t have to measure a thing. Just print the templates, cut them out, and use the one that fits your project best.
👉 Perfect for: boxy totes, pouches, and organizers.
How to use these templates:
- Trace inside the template for a smaller corner.
- Trace outside the template for a larger corner.
Each template includes two sizes, so you can easily choose the one that suits your bag design.

🟩 3. Zipper Opening Templates
These are my favorite templates — and the ones I use the most!
The most common way to create a zippered pocket is by drawing a zipper opening. Usually, that means centering it on your fabric or placing it in a specific spot, which takes careful measuring and marking.
But with these zipper opening templates, you can skip all that tedious measuring! Instead, you’ll be able to quickly and accurately mark your zipper opening exactly where you want it — easy, fast, and perfectly even every time.
👉 Perfect for: zipper pockets on lining, bag panels, or for pouches.
This is my go-to method for creating zipper pouches — and if you’re feeling creative, why not try a double-pouch? It’s easier than you think with these templates!
🟦 4. Zipper Overlay Templates (+ Complete Tutorial!)
Zipper overlays = neat finish + extra strength + beautiful detail.
They’re one of those small touches that make a huge difference in how professional your bag looks.
Zipper Overlay Tutorial Included
I have 6 designs for you to choose from! And the best part? This set comes with a step-by-step tutorial to walk you through the whole process.
👉 Perfect for: zipper pockets, exterior accents, and decorative finishes.
