Today I will share with you a tutorial on how to cut old clothes into strips of cloth and sew them with needle and thread to make various beautiful decorations by hand. Let’s take a look~
Lets try to make a bag and prepare some old T-shirts that we don't wear.
Cut the T-shirt into strips
Find a piece of cloth that needs to be made into a bag and draw the pattern you want to make on it. You can also print a line drawing and use carbon paper to transfer the pattern onto the cloth. Take out the cloth strip, put on needle and thread, and fix it with needle and thread while coiling.
As shown below
The colors of the cloth strips can be sorted first and then fixed, or they can be made directly from the cloth strips purchased online, so that the colors will be more detailed and made. The effect will be better.
After sewing the pattern, cut off the raw edges.
Sewn with cloth
Make an outer bag and an inner bag, and connect the two together.
Put on the strap
The bag is completed and can be turned into a shopping eco-friendly bag or document bag when made larger. In this way, you can make more bags or floor cushions.
You can also make several coin purses
Make your own handbag
