Board Game Bag for on the go 🎲🧵

I love board games.
My friends do too.
And especiallyMartin, mya friendformer Martin.flatmate and friend, loves board games too.

Since my first semester, we’ve been playing board games regularly in Ilmenau together with a group of friends. Game nights have become a natural part of our everyday life there.
When Martin’s birthday was coming up, I knew I wanted to give him something personal. Of course, a great board game was a must – but since Martin and his wife love to travel, there was one problem: board game boxes are usually bulky and not very travel-friendly.
That’s when the idea came up: Why not sew the perfect bag to go with the game?

The Idea ✨

A board game bag for on the go – practical, compact, and personal.

I sewed a bag that fits the game perfectly and makes it easy to take along while traveling. To make it truly unique, I embroidered the outside using our Brother embroidery machine. The bag is fully lined on the inside, giving it both structure and a clean finish.
Since green is Martin’s favorite color, the choice was obvious: It had to be green. 💚

Of course, a zipper was essential. I used an endless zipper, which I really enjoy working with because of its flexibility and clean, professional look.

The Result 🎒

A custom board game bag featuring:

• an embroidered outer layer
• a fully lined interior
• an endless zipper

A personal gift – made for board game nights on the go.

A great game, perfectly sized for this bag — although the next version will be just a little bigger, as this one is quite a snug fit.
