DIFFICULTY: 2 of 5 spools - Advanced Beginner
NOTIONS: Polyester thread, one 11” #4.5 size zipper (should be approximately 1” wide), two 1” O-rings, two 1” swivel clasps, one 1” strap slider. Optional: leather for the zipper pull.
Note: If choosing to use webbing or leather in place of a self-made strap, you will need 52” of your chosen strap. Your webbing or leather can be 1 1/2” instead of 1”, but the corresponding hardware (swivel clasps & strap slider) will need to be 1 1/2” instead of 1”.
Note: For one of the samples the strap holder pieces were swapped for webbing. If you choose to do this for your bag, be sure to account for the extra length when purchasing webbing for your bag.
SUGGESTED FABRICS:
Outer fabric: Medium & heavy weight woven fabrics like cotton, linen, denim, wool, corduroy, canvas, upholstery fabric. Non-woven materials like leather, vinyl, or treated fabrics can also be used. When selecting fabric, keep in mind what your sewing machine is capable of sewing through, as many steps will be quite thick.
Lining fabric: Lightweight & medium weight wovens, such as linen, lawn, quilt weight, bemberg rayon, silk, & shirting.
Interfacing: For outer & lining, Pellon SF101 or similar medium weight fusible interfacing is recommended. If using a heavy weight outer fabric, or fabric with a treatment like waxing, interfacing can be omitted.
