Cut out bag lining based on measurements from previous step.

Stitch the two sides of fabric adjacent to the folded side to create a rectangle with one opening.

Finish stitching 2 cm from the end of the open side.

Fold over extra 2 cm from the opening of the new bag lining outward to hide the raw edge of the fabric.
