Step 1: Gather Your Materials
Before you start sewing, ensure you have all the necessary materials:
- Fabric for the exterior (39 x 40 cm)
- Thermocollant or fusible foam (39 x 40 cm)
- Lining fabric (39 x 40 cm)
- Six lining strips (21 x 4 cm each)
- Separate zipper (45 cm)
- Handle (25 cm)
You can find many of these materials online; links are provided in the video description for easy access.
Step 2: Prepare Your Fabrics
Prepare the fabric pieces by following these sub-steps:
- Cut the Fabrics: Ensure all fabric pieces are cut to the specified dimensions.
- Fuse the Thermocollant: Adhere the thermocollant to the exterior fabric using an iron, following the manufacturer's instructions.
- Prepare the Lining Strips: Fold each of the six lining strips in half lengthwise and press them.
Step 3: Assemble the Bag
Now it's time to assemble your toiletry bag:
-
Attach the Zipper:
- Place the zipper on the right side of one end of the exterior fabric.
- Pin or clip the zipper in place.
- Sew along the edge, attaching the zipper to the fabric. Use a zipper foot for best results.
-
Add the Lining:
- Take one lining piece and place it right sides together with the exterior fabric, covering the zipper.
- Sew along the same edge to secure the lining to the zipper.
-
Repeat for the Other Side:
- Attach the other side of the zipper to the remaining exterior fabric and then to the opposite lining piece in the same manner.
Step 4: Create the Side Panels
To give your bag its shape:
-
Sew the Bottom:
- Fold the bag so that the exterior and lining pieces are aligned.
- Pin the sides and the bottom edges, leaving the top open.
- Sew along the sides and bottom.
-
Box the Corners:
- Pinch the corners of the bottom to create a triangle.
- Sew across the triangle to box the corners and give the bag depth.
Step 5: Attach the Handle
To add a handle:
- Position the Handle:
- Place the handle on one side of the bag, ensuring it is centered.
- Sew it securely in place, reinforcing it with a few backstitches.
Step 6: Finish the Bag
Complete your toiletry bag:
- Turn the Bag Inside Out:
- Gently pull the exterior fabric through the top opening to turn the bag right side out.
- Press the Bag:
- Use an iron to smooth out any wrinkles and give your bag a neat finish.
- Close the Opening:
- Hand sew or top stitch the opening closed.
