make a bag

i think i might make a bag for school,
that would be cool.
black material,purple & black ribbon,a few black/white buttons.
that would be cool.

i made a good bag at my friends house, she threw me a surprise birthday party and we all made bags. i sewed buttons and beads on it.

finish making black suede bag.

I forgot all about this until I found the bag when tidying up. I tidied the lining fabric, paper pattern, box of pins and handles into the outer part of the bag itself so I just need to pick it up and get going again.
Whenever I go in Boots to look at hair accessories or if I pass by an Accessorize store I see the beautiful beaded purses and things and am reminded of this goal. The final bag is meant to be beaded with gems and things eventually, if that happens – we’ll seee.

There it is, the finished product. I had a bit of dificulty manouvering my webcam in order to get a good photo, but as stuffed up as that one is, it’ll have to do. :)

I have now cut out the bag, pinned it and all that is left to be done is to go and borrow my friend’s sewing machine. I can harldy wait!

crochet bag done…..

I have actually managed to buy some really nice fabric and some cute badges that I want to pin on the bag once it’s done. Now all I need is to make a pattern, cut it out and then haul ass to a sewing machine. Am so excited!

I made a patchwork design on the front – a sort of chevron type of thingy -bit hard to explain – the back was plain and I also made little tabs for the straight handles. Made it out of old denim jeans and some upholstery fabric. It’s very roomy so is ideal for a “throw all your junk in” type of bag. I even made it with gussets and sewed some buttons on the patchwork side, and it looks really great. I’m very proud of it and of me too, heh.

I want to learn how to insert a zip into the next bag I make.

I made a duct tape bag not too long ago. It worked out pretty well except for the fact that I ran out of regular duct tape and had to use bright green for the straps. :P

I haven’t made a bag out of anything else, though.
