-
Make a template for your bag. It should be atleast the width of your zip. I used an A4 piece of paper, folded it in half and then cut it down to size.
-
Use your template to draw out the shape on to your fabric and cut this out.
-
Cut out your lining fabric and your cover fabric.
-
Pin the long sides of both pieces of fabric together and sew along this.
-
Pin one side, width ways, along the length of the zip and sew this in place.
-
Pin the other side of the bag to the zip.
-
Sew the other side up with the sewing machine. Unzip the zip so that you don't end up sewing the top of bag to the bottom of the bag.
-
Your zip should now be nice and secure.
-
Fold the bag inside out.
-
Sew up the remaining sides. Remember to leave the zip open or you wont be able to get back inside the bag.
-
Trim off any excess edges and fold inside out.
-
Make or buy a stencil, and using fabric or acrylic paint, decorate the bag.
-
Add a ribbon for the wrist strap and embelish with sequins, beads of jewels.
