A tie bag includes a hem seal, at the mouth of the bag, which grips the top of a receptacle, when the tie bag is used as a liner for the receptacle, to preclude having the mouth of the bag fall into the receptacle. The hem seal forms a hem flap, which is cut in a geometric pattern to provide tie fasteners. The hem seal may also form a hem at the open mouth of the tie bag. The tie bag may further include a pair of secondary hem seals closing the hem at the opposing sides of the sidewalls.

What is claimed is: 1. A tie bag comprising a container portion including an open mouth and a hem seal that form a hem flap, the hem flap being cut in a geometric pattern to provide tie fasteners; the container portion includes two opposing sidewalls, each defining a periphery thereof joined to form the container portion and the open mouth of the tie bag; the sidewalls are joined to each other along a pair of opposing sides and a bottom bridging the opposing sides, and a top of each respective sidewall is folded over toward the bottom and joined to its respective sidewall by the hem seal to form the hem flap; the geometric pattern of the hem flap includes a pair of tie fasteners joined by a bight; and the hem seal is disposed below the bight when the top of the sidewalls is folded over toward the bottom. 2. The tie bag of claim 1 wherein the geometric pattern is a sinusoidal pattern. 3. The tie bag of claim 1 wherein the hem seal forms a hem at the open mouth of the tie bag. 4. The tie bag of claim 3 further comprising a pair of secondary hem seals closing the hem at the opposing sides of the sidewalls. 5. The tie bag of claim 4 wherein the secondary hem seals are about one quaffer inch in width. 6. A tie bag comprising a container portion including an open mouth and a hem seal that form a hem flap, the hem flap being cut in a geometric pattern to provide tie fasteners; the container portion includes two opposing sidewalls, each defining a periphery thereof joined to form the container portion and the open mouth of the tie bag; the sidewalls are joined to each other along a pair of opposing sides and a bottom bridging the opposing sides, and a top of each respective sidewall is folded over toward the bottom and joined to its respective sidewall by the hem seal to form the hem flap; the geometric pattern of the hem flap includes a pair of tie fasteners joined by a bight; and the hem seal intersects the bight when the top of the sidewalls is folded over toward the bottom. 7. The tie bag of claim 6 wherein the hem seal forms a hem at the open mouth of the tie bag. 8. The tie bag of claim 7 further comprising a pair of secondary hem seals closing the hem at the opposing sides of the sidewalls. 9. A tie bag comprising a container portion including an open mouth and a hem seal that form a hem flap, the hem flap being cut in a geometric pattern to provide tie fasteners; the container portion includes two opposing sidewalls, each defining a periphery thereof joined to form the container portion and the open mouth of the tie bag; the sidewalls are joined to each other along a pair of opposing sides and a top and a bottom bridging the opposing sides, the top of each respective sidewall is folded over toward the bottom and joined to its respective sidewall by the hem seal to form the hem flap; the geometric pattern of the hem flap includes a pair of tie fasteners joined by a bight; the hem seal is disposed above the bight when the top of the sidewalls is folded over toward the bottom; and whereby the hem seal doubles the layers of a film to be stretched when a user pulls the open mouth of the tie bag over a rim of a trash receptacle and thereby improves the grip force of the bag. 10. The tie bag of claim 9 wherein the hem seal forms a hem at the open mouth of the tie bag. 11. The tie bag of claim 10 further comprising a pair of secondary hem seals closing the hem at the opposing sides of the sidewalls. 12. A tie bag comprising: a container portion including an open mouth of the tie bag and a pair of hem seals that form a pair of hem flaps; the hem flaps being cut in a geometric pattern to provide at least two tie fasteners joined by a bight; the container portion including a first and a second opposing sidewall, each having a pair of opposing sides and a bottom joined to form the container portion and the open mouth of the tie bag; and the peripheries of the first and second sidewalls each including a respective top thereof that is folded over toward the bottom and joined to its respective sidewall by one or the other of the hem seals to form the hem flaps. 13. The tie bag of claim 12 wherein the tops of the first and second sidewalls are folded inward, between the first and second sidewalls, with the top of the first sidewall being joined to an interior surface of the first sidewall by one of the hem seals, and the top of the second sidewall being joined to an interior surface of the second sidewall by the other of the hem seals. 14. The tie bag of claim 12 wherein the pair of hem seals forms a pair of hems at the open mouth of the tie bag. 15. The tie bag of claim 14 further comprising a pair of secondary hem seals closing the pair of hems at the opposing sides of the sidewalls.
