I top stitch the flap of the bag after it is ironed. The small opening is easily closed with top stitching. The opening can also be slip stitched closed.
Finished bag.
Now is this clear as mud? Good thing I don't write instruction books for a living. And it is hard to do because I am trying to do it from start to finish but backwards so it reads the right way in the blog.
Thanks for this tutorial on your make up bag. I think I will give this a try later.
ReplyDeletei like the bags you have been making. Thanks for the tutorial.
ReplyDeleteThe directions are crystal clear. I think anyone could follow them. I will try one tomorrow for my secret pal box. =)
ReplyDeleteThank you for the tutorial. I am going to have to make something like this. It's really pretty. I have some of that fabric in a different colorway, and really like it.
ReplyDeleteExcellent tutorial, and especially since you had to do it backwards! I love all kinds of bags - this one is very cute. I can see myself making lots of these for presents.
ReplyDeleteMade one! Worked just as you said it would. =) I didn't have the right kind of ribbon, so I used a button and buttonhole. Next time, I would stitch on some velcro and glue the button on! =)
ReplyDeleteThanks for the tutorial. Now I'm thinking about making it a bit smaller and using crazy quilting on the flap. =)
