Every year we trash enough gift wrap to wrap around the world multiple times, and a good chunk of it is not even recyclable. What a waste! So why not make your own fabric gift wrap inspired by furoshiki, a traditional Japanese wrapping cloth you can use as reusable gift wrap or a bag. It's an easy sewing project for beginners. A reusable fabric gift wrap is a great way to reduce waste around the holidays. What size furoshiki do I need? If you have a specific gift you are working with, then the diagonal of the cloth needs to be around three times the length of the gift. A little bigger is good too. You can use a square piece of cloth, a tea towel, or a square scarf to make an educated guess to determine the finished size you need. Furoshiki sizes and what they wrap 45 x 45 cm / 17,7"x 17,7": a small notebook, small item. 50 x 50cm / 19,7" x 19,7": a small notebook, tissue box, lunch box. 68 x 68 cm / 26.7"x 26.7": a book, wine bottle, lunch box. 90 x 90 cm / 35,4" x 35,4": two wine bottles, use as a shopping bag, multiple books. 100 x 100 cm 39,4" x 39,4": wrap a pillow, use as a shopping bag.

Reducing waste was also a factor for me when determining the size. Don't forget to add a seam allowance on top of those finished sizes.
