Here is a collection of free clothespin bag patterns found online. You can click the picture above to print out this sweet vintage clothespin character pattern, transfer it to your bag if you like and embroider. It’s an animated clothespin bouncing on a bar of soap from an old clothespin bag pattern I have (the complete sewing pattern is too large to scan and share unfortunately). See embroidery pattern notes at the bottom.
