Searching
through google images for cloth bags I found so many interesting designs of
handbags and they inspired me to create one for myself. I had a leftover
darkgreen piece of cloth(cotswool) from with I decide to make bag. Inner lining
of bag is of black color cotton. Thin foam sheet has been placed in between
matching green Zari border , decorative hanging and center piece(from my old
bag) are main attraction of this bag.
Step by step instructions for bag are as below:
- U shaped 2 pieces of
green cloth, 2 pieces of black cloth & 2 pieces of foam sheet
measuring .14"X12"
- Strip for attaching
U shaped pieces 3" Wide and 32" length for joining.(inner side black
cloth foam is not required)
- 34" Strip with border attached to
it for hanging and cut 5" for front flap and keep aside.
- Inner part is
simple and self explanatory with 2 pockets. It has to be placed in the
darkgreen cloth .
- Take one piece of
green cloth and foam sew them together, sew eight straight lines
horizontally and vertically on it.
- For the wrong side
take one piece of green cloth and foam sew them together make a straight
line for proper positioning of foam.
- After preparing the
2 pieces take cloth with foam
and sew from one end to another from both sides this will make the main
body of bag.
- Add decorative hanging to the the strip
with Zari border from both sides sew it with main body of bag from both sides..
- Attach 1" piece velcro with front flap.
