Step 1
The bag can be sewn from any fabric, but it will be better if you pick up a dense, shape-holding, for example, a flap or denim, pieces of natural or artificial leather. Raincoat fabric, velvet, corduroy and so on are also suitable. Start by building a pattern. The structure consists of two rectangular pieces. For example, 40x50 cm.
Step 2
Start with the decor. Mark the location of the appliqué or embroidery. Sew the application on a typewriter along the contour. Embroidery can be done in absolutely different ways, any is appropriate here: beads, satin stitch, cross stitch.
Step 3
Cut out the handle so that the finished bag can be slipped over your shoulder. Fold the part of the handle with the right side and sew a cut, turn it out and iron it. The handle made of a braided cord looks stylish.
Step 4
Bend the upper cuts of the bag parts to the front side. Close the seam with tape or a belt to which you attach the handles.
Step 5
Sew the sides of the bag. Fold out the bottom corners and stitch from the wrong side. This will make your bag more spacious and wider.
Step 6
If you are sewing a bag from a lighter fabric, then duplicate its details with non-woven or padding polyester. The bag can be made with a lining, cut it out according to the patterns of the top, grind off all the cuts, put it on the bag turned out to the wrong side, and sweep it round along the upper cut. Turn the bag right-side up and trim the top cuts with piping.
Step 7
Sew a zipper along the top cuts or make a hinge fastener and sew on an elegant button. You can make Velcro, lace or snap fasteners. For the beach option, you can not do the clasp at all.
Step 8
With summer dresses or sundresses, the so-called T-shirt bags look pretty. These bags can be sewn to almost any outfit and look unique. Its pattern is a rectangle with a one-piece shoulder strap. Make a seam in the middle of the back and front parts. Sew the straps together or simply tie them in a knot.
Step 9
To make it convenient to use the bag, sew a pocket for a mobile phone and a wallet inside, and then you do not have to shake everything out of it in search of the desired item.
