DIY T-shirt bag, patterns

We are used to choosing bags based on their convenience, functionality, originality of cut and finish.

Recently, for many, a key brand of choice has become a product brand.

Let's figure out how to sew the original stylish bag with your own hands, which will be no worse than manufactured in an industrial way.

T-shirt bag definition

Several seasons in a row in favor of T-shirt bags. Many designers turned to this simple cut.

"T-shirt" - a handbag of medium or large size, soft shape, baggy shape. It is very functional and comfortable in the city. It belongs to the group of everyday bags or products for shopping. It depends on the size of a particular product.

A distinctive feature are the handles, cut out together with the main part. They practically don’t make them old.

Constructive decisions:

  • Completely one-piece models. The entire bag is a one-piece cloth with seams on the sides and bottom. In the area of ​​the handles, the fabric is bent.
  • Bags of two halves. The front and back of the bag are cut out separately, stitched on the sides, bottom, and also in the area of ​​the straps.
  • Bags from used products that retained structural seams. We offer a number of models that provide unlimited opportunities for lovers of handmade. Ready-made T-shirts, t-shirts, sweaters and so on are used.

Suitable materials

Almost any materials are suitable for such bags :

  • natural, faux suede and leather;
  • gunny, burlap;
  • thick linen, cotton;
  • nylon;
  • drape;
  • felt;
  • denim;
  • knitwear.

Advice! Often used as new and used products from knitwear.

Do-it-yourself stylish bag-shirt patterns

1 piece bag

In the manufacture of this bag, we cut the part with a fold along the straps. The bag is very durable, functional, can be used for heavy purchases. The absence of seams allows you to decorate the center with complex embroidery, another massive finish.

Advice! The bag will become even stronger, original, if you make a decorative double stitching of seams. To do this, you can use a special double needle of the sewing machine, or lay two stitches in parallel with a regular needle.

Would need:

  • burlap, drap, suede - 55-60 cm, with a width of 150 cm;
  • threads
  • ready slanting inlay;
  • double needle sewing machine - optional.

Pattern:

  • The main part - 1 pc. with a fold.

Working process:

  • On a piece of thick paper we draw a pattern. At this point, you can make changes to the size and shape of the bag. Do not forget about the bottom.
  • We transfer the details of the pattern to the fabric, cover it. We do not need allowances here.
  • Cut out.
  • Sew side seams.
  • Sew the bottom.
  • We bend the corners of the bottom inward, giving it volume. We fix it manually.
  • We sew the seams of the finished or made from the remains of the fabric oblique trim.
  • A similar model does not involve a lock, but you can sew a button on the inside.

Advice! If you want to decorate with embroidery or in another way, then do this until you begin to sew side seams.

This bag can be made with a lining, in this case:

  • We cut out one main part + one of the lining fabric.
  • We sew both blanks separately.
  • We connect them "the wrong side to the wrong side."
  • We process slices with an oblique collar together.
  • In some places, we sew the bottom with hidden stitches on the lining to the main fabric.

T-shirt or T-shirt bag

The simplest option, opening up a lot of opportunities for needlewomen. There are models that require a minimum of seams, and do without them at all.

Advice! If you want to get a really useful and beautiful thing, then use new, not used jerseys.

Would need:

  • T-shirt or T-shirt
  • threads
  • accessories, decorative elements.

Pattern is not required.

Working process:

  • If you have a T-shirt, then leave the top untouched.
  • We measure the length of the product.
  • On the wrong side, along the supposed bottom, draw a line, cut it off.
  • We sew the resulting bottom.
  • We turn out.
  • We are smoothing.

If you have a T-shirt, turtleneck, cardigan, etc.:

  • Cut off the upper part (sleeves, neck), leaving straps with shoulder seams.
  • We process slices with an oblique collar - at will.
  • The bottom is processed as in the case of a T-shirt, or cut into a fringe. Then we tie it in tight knots.

The bag is ready.

As you can see, in 2 hours you can make several handbags for each of your outfits, for any mood.
