What can an everyday bag be made of?
Handicrafts are becoming more and more popular. No wonder, a handmade product is a source of satisfaction, and the solution is economical and environmentally friendly. A self-made product is a unique product.
Where to start?
Start by choosing the material. First of all, the bag should be durable and carefully sewn. The size should be adjusted to individual needs. It is easiest to sew from materials that are sufficiently stiff, thick and strong. Of course, maintaining moderation and freedom of sewing, combining several extremely thick layers may be troublesome and cause many mechanical problems, such as breaking the needle, bending the holder, etc.
We can approach the choice of material in an unconventional and creative way. However, not every idea will be easy to implement. If we are in the beginner group, cotton fabrics will be a safe direction. Any fabrics with pile, slippery, stretchy or sparsely woven are more difficult to handle.
To sew the bag, it is best to use hard materials, waterproof materials, waterproof and outdoor fabrics, artificial leather or cotton.
Eco-friendly fashion, i.e. fabric bags.
A fabric bag is a must-have in the wardrobe of every woman who cares about ecology. This is a model that can fit small purchases, an interesting book, a calendar, water, sunscreen and various types of trinkets necessary during the day. The bag will be perfect for many occasions - every day, while shopping, on vacation or for a picnic. The bag can be made of e.g. cotton or linen. The material is perfect for all types of decorations or prints, thanks to which our bag can gain a unique character and become an irreplaceable everyday accessory. Additionally, it is worth using stiffening from a hard material on the inside.
Jeans – recycled bags.
You can use old pants, skirts or jackets to sew a denim bag. The material is thick, good quality and durable. Recently, denim bags have become very popular among trendsetters.
Quilting – woolen material used in many industries.
It is a three-layer fabric, it has a warming layer, a lining and a top layer. Its quilted outer layer makes it look fashionable and is ideal for the production of bags or handbags.
You can also sew a perfect jacket, autumn coat or cape from it, creating a fashionable set with a bag.
It is a solid, durable material.
Eco-leather - the most popular material for a handbag.
Leather bags are characterized by an elegant appearance, exceptional durability and flexibility. Leather is undoubtedly timeless and can serve for years. Leather bag sewing should be left to the professionals. We dedicate artificial leather to amateurs, which do not require specially adapted equipment and are easy to process.
