Stages of work:
We fold the newspaper in half, bend the corners, but leave the distance as in the picture.
Fold in half, then mark the control lines (see photo). The distance between them is the height of the future bag, and the marked lower part of the newspaper is the bottom. Draw a horizontal line along the bias and cut off the extra corner on the right. Next, cut the newspaper in half.
