  Step 1

  Find a t-shirt of your choice.

• 

  Step 2

  Trace a line with a chalk or marker as a guide line. Also you can adjust the way you want the shape of your bag.

• 

  Step 3

  Cut about 3cm away from the guide line you did before, and pin all around.

• 

  Step 4

  Fold the top part inwards about 1-2 cm. (ie the part that's going to be open)
  So it's all neat and tidy.

  This has to be done for the front part and the back.

• 

  Step 5

  Sew this edge. Do the same thing for the front/back.

• 

  Step 6

  Place the 2 pieces together, with the front part with the design facing inside. Pin the edges, and sew.

• 

  Step 7

  Since my shirt was long, I trimmed a part from the bottom and am going to use that for the strap. However you can use anything, ribbon, rope, another fabric...

  If you're going to use a fabric, cut a piece about 10cm wide. Fold it and pin. Then sew the edge. Once that's done you have to flip it inside out. Just like you do with tights :D

• 

  Step 8

  Now, just sew the edges of the strap at the inner sides of the bag. Just make sure you sew well a couple of times to enforce it.

  I sewed twice vertical at the sides, and a cross in the middle.

  Step 9

  And here it is!!

  It's not the neatest job in the world but I did my best. I just recently started sewing and so far this the is one thing I did from start to finish on my own.

  Hope you like it :D
