Multi Zippered Bags - New Video Tutorial


I recently made a small batch of Triple Zipper Bags. The pattern I used is the Doitrei Zipper Pouch. A couple of weeks before, I had prepped the fabrics, which were just sitting in my WIP drawer. Finally, they are now done and I am planning to make more for the shops!

This time I was experimenting with different types of fabrics. I used linen, cotton and canvas. When working with different types of fabrics, it's important to adjust the interfacing to get the result that you desire. I explained the interfacing I  used in this video

This triple zipper bag is about 8" W x 6" H. It's a perfect size to carry around in your tote as a tote organizer. I recently used one for my short trip to Singapore and used it to keep my digital camera, basic makeup, emergency medicine, charging cable and ear pod. It's just so convenient to keep everything in one bag.

As I was making these pouches, I realized I hadn't done a proper video tutorial, so I decided to record one which hopefully will help to better understand the construction process of this multi-zipper bag

A very handy gift to make for everyone in your family and the bag can be used as a wallet, purse, pencil bag/pouch, travel pouch, make-up bag, etc. You can even add tabs on both sides, add a long strap and it will become a stylish crossbody bag. Use coupon CVG20 to get 20% OFF on the PATTERN only

More Tulip Wallets

 

Mini Wallets with Keyring
Tulip Mini Wallet


Hello, 
Last weekend, I made more Tulip Mini Wallets. These wallets are just so much fun, easy, and quick to put together, especially if you have fun off-cut fabric scraps. This wallet is pretty sleek and compact, you can slip it into your jeans and hook the key ring on your belt loop. It can easily carry 8-10 cards or a few cards and folded notes. Or just clip it in your small purse or tote bag.

The pattern has two versions, vertical and horizontal. The pattern also included instructions on how to finish the seam in two ways. I did the easy one as shown in the video tutorial. If you have a wrist problem (CTS) like me, don't worry, this one is pretty easy on the wrist :). 

I mostly used polka dots this time because I have a lot of them. I used it a lot in my other projects, so I have quite a lot of off-cuts that I can use to make this keychain wallet.

If you're looking for easy gifts to sew, this Tulip Mini Wallet is a great project for you. To make this wallet, basically, you need only 1 fat eighth of fabric, all-purpose woven interfacing and lightweight interfacing. This project is great for beginners as well as seasoned sewists. 




Thank you for stopping by today. 

Happy Sewing!
