Another Handmade Bag

Salam all,

This bag was suppose to be ready long time ago. I couldn't find the time to actually sit down, cut and sew, but Alhamdulillah, it materializes last week. Since the sewing machine broke down towards the end, I had to take it to my tailor to sew the mast touch. So, here how it looks like.

I have to admit, I did not do a very good job. Just come near to the bag and have a peep at the stitches. No, I'd rather not say. However, it's my first so, I'd say Alhamdulillah. More room for improvement, insyAllah.

This bag's idea came from the DIYDish and below is the link on youtube.

Enjoy trying!

Handmade Bag

Salam all,

During the break, I decided to make a tote bag. While working, I checked out some informative youtube videos which I can learn and take inspiration from. So, above is the result of a two days work. Yes, I need a lot of improvisation. While working I realized that I need to organize and watch the video at least 3 times so that I don't go back and forth, between sewing and learning.

The bag has only one handle and made of saree cloth which I had extra after sewing my baju kurung. InsyAllah, I am planning to make another one after this first experience. Attached is the video where I learnt the technique or shall I say the 'how to'.

Try it out yourself!
