SEWING STEPS
- STEP 1 Once the pattern printed. Stick all pieces together. Put some great music on or head to one of my favorite podcast Conscious Chatter. For the perfect ambiance while sewing:)
- STEP 2 Trace the pattern on fabric and cut
- STEP 3 Sew both A pieces with the reverse side of the fabric face to face at 1 cm from the edges
- STEP 4 Open the seam allowance and top stitch it at 5mm from edges. Repeat same operation on the other A pieces
- STEP 5 Overlay one of B pieces at 1cm from A edges and sew a 2 needles stitch at 3mm from the edges. Repeat same operation on each side of both B pieces.
- STEP 6 Use shoelaces or twill tape and fix it at the middle seam.
- STEP 7 Coudre l’appliqué.
- STEP 8 Coudre le fond du sac, avec le sac tourné à l’envers.
- STEP 9 Overlay C pieces together riverside face to face and top stitch all around it.
- STEP 10 Fix the tip of C with the tip of B reverse side face to face. Make this step on both side
- STEP 11 To have a nice fray effect use sand paper to fray the edges
