How to sew a string bag from fabric

Materials and Tools

You will need:

  • cotton fabric;
  • additional cotton fabric for the inner lining;
  • scissors;
  • sewing machine;
  • a thread.

Completing of the work

  • First, make two rectangles of fabric 45 by 35 cm (both the outer and inner layers of the fabric).

IMPORTANT! Thanks to the rectangular shape of the string bag, you can do without a paper pattern and do the cutting immediately on the fabric.

  • Then cut two 45 by 35 cm rectangles.
  • Cut two handles, 50 cm long.
  • On the long side of all the rectangles, cut two 5 by 5 cm squares only from the bottom corners.
  • Repeat. This will form the basis.

You can also use a string bag pattern.

  • Stitch the outer sides of the fabric together and make straight seams along the sides and bottom of the product.

Note Leave the top and two cut corners unstitched.

  • Tighten the gaps in the cut corners, aligning the side and bottom seams in the center. Attach straight and sew the seam. This step adds depth to the product and creates a flat bottom.
  • Fasten the sides of the inner (lining) rectangles of the fabric together and repeat the above steps.
  • Insert the inner layer of fabric so that the right sides are together.
  • Attach the handles between the inner and outer fabric of the bag.
  • Fasten the end of each handle about 10 cm from the side seam, then fasten the edges of the fabric around the perimeter of the product hole.
  • Starting at the side seam, sew a 1.3 cm seam almost completely around.
  • Pull both fabrics and handles through the ten-centimeter hole, turning the product out.
  • Lightly smooth with a warm iron to remove bruises.

Everything is ready!
