The size of each strip is 3.5 by 15.5 centimeters. After this, you should decide which order of color contrast best suits your aesthetic perception.
Next you need to sew three pieces of each stripcolors. Before the stitching is done, the patches are connected with tailor's pins, and the pins should be positioned perpendicular to the future seam.
Patchwork sewing has several rules and one of them is the standard (0.6 cm) seam allowance.
First, two colors are sewn together, then the third type of fabric is sewn on. Everything needs to be pinned. Seam allowances need to be ironed in one direction.
After this, the patches of three colors that were obtained in the process are sewn together in one order. The result is a strip that looks like a multi-colored snake.
Now it's time for some Japanese patchwork magic. The strip is folded as shown in the photo below.
The folds obtained in this way should be swept into the shape of a skirt.

Since a lace will be used as a tightening, then squares with sides of 3.2 centimeters will be useful for fixing and ennobling its edges.
The strip for the back side is sewn as shown in the photo below.
Next, you need to pull the fabric into the shape of a bag.
This pouch is inserted into the omiyage face pouch.
Once these two pieces are secured with a basting stitch, you can begin making the edging. To do this, cut out two rectangles and secure them along the edge of the bag.
After this, sew up the edging material thoroughly and fold it inside the product, securing it with a blind stitch.
Between our rectangles sewn inomiyage edging, openings are formed, into which the chosen lace should be threaded. The ends of the threaded lace should be fixed with the help of cut-out squares.
One edge of the resulting rectangular patch is pulled together, and the other is turned inside out.
