How to sew a bag: Ideas, tips and a DIY master class

About, that a penny saves a ruble, known to many, but how to save on basic things, not everyone knows. A striking example of reasonable savings is a capacious and practical fabric bag with which disposable bags become unnecessary. When folded, this bag will take up no more space. , than a wallet, and in the expanded will be roomy. There is one more plus: her handles will definitely not break off from heavy luggage.

The size of the bag can be arbitrary.
It is easy to adjust it to the size of any convenient package. For sewing you will need:

  • small piece of fabric
  • rubber bands
  • tape measure
  • scissors
  • chalk or soap for marking.

The consumption of fabric corresponds in length to the doubled height of the future bag , and in width it exceeds the width of the finished product by 25-30 cm. This is necessary in order for the bag to turn out to be voluminous and more spacious. In fact, this is a rectangle , which, if desired, can even be made combined.

First, fold the fabric in four and make markings on the inside. In our case, it is 14 cm high and 10 cm wide. From the intersection of the lines we measure 1 cm towards the center and make a rounding.

Without unfolding the fabric, cut out the middle and proceed to the side markings. In our case, we set aside 18.5 cm from the top. From this point we set aside 11 cm upwards. Conditionally dividing the resulting segment in half , make a note, going deep 2, 5 cm

We make one more mark near the top point of the segment, but here the depth will be less - 2 cm. The next point coincides with the upper corner of the canvas, that is, the recess comes to naught. Connecting all the dots , perform edge trimming.

Then we work with a canvas unfolded or folded in half. If possible, pick up the fabric from all sides.

Sewing the bag on the sides, without touching the handles.

We make share bends in the area of ​​\u200b\u200bthe handles, folding each one in half, and then we sew the bottom. It is due to this that the bag will be roomy.
