Make something丨zipper handbag

Author @Since The handmade leather zipper handbag is indeed a good thing. It has a huge capacity. It can hold everything from mobile phones to cards and money. It is suitable for people of all ages. If the color is chosen well, or if you know how to carve leather, it will be cool for girls to hold. There are many crafts that can be played at the same time, such as zippering, zippering, and zippering. It is really a must-have tutorial for getting started. The steps for zipper handbags are very complicated. If you follow the tutorial completely, it will be very long. Some of the too simple points will be omitted. If you have any questions, please feel free to leave a message.

1. First When it comes to the choice of leather material, you must first determine the feel and style you want. I chose yellow-brown with a slightly softer texture. If you want something tougher, you can choose horse rein leather as the outer cover.

Yellow brown is Classic leather made using traditional vegetable tanning methods. It is made by beating the bark, leaves and fruits of trees rich in tannin into powder and soaking it with the leather. Moreover, the leather after tanning and fattening is soft and has a tight fiber structure, small extensibility, good formability, and a plump and elastic surface without any greasy feeling. The grain and suede surfaces of leather are shiny, easy to soften when absorbing water, and easy to plasticize. It is famous for its yellowish color and will turn into dark brown after being cultivated in plates. The price is affordable and suitable for beginners to practice. After adjusting the position of the pattern, use an awl to trace the outline and position the holes according to the pattern to ensure the accuracy of the hole positions.

According to the layout Cutting material. This bag uses a lot of materials, and some parts may need to be re-cut due to technical problems, so if it is the first time to make it, it is best to save some extra leather for emergencies.

2. The first thing we need to do after cutting is to seal the edge with shallow grooves, and seal the edges that cannot be processed after sewing. As shown in the picture, the outermost leather is on the top of the card position, the top of the zipper position and the upper and lower ends of the side wall. (For the curved side wall below, choose two left edges and two right edges.)

The reason why the side wall is special is that one side needs to be pasted with stitches and then sealed.

I seal the edges After finishing, I directly made the internal linear zipper position. Personally, I am used to doing the zipper first, because I always have the illusion that the bag is almost ready when the zipper is finished.

Make this straight line What you need to pay attention to when making a zipper is to prepare the zipper cloth to be slightly shorter. If it is exactly as long as the leather, the edge-sealed zipper cloth will be exposed later, affecting the appearance. Regarding how to fasten zippers and the history of zippers, I have written a whole article before. You can pay attention to learn http://www.pixiaojiang.com/topic/show/315

After installing the straight zipper, glue the bottom and side walls of the zipper position. Knocking on the blackboard, there is one thing you need to pay attention to here, that is, the side wall of the zipper is different from other side walls. Its top has no curvature and is flat, so that it will not cause obstacles when using the zipper daily.

Assemble the zipper bit When it came to the side wall, I cut it on the side wall, pasted it on the zipper, and taped it through using the double-sided method. (I was so excited that I forgot to take a picture.) You must pay attention when tapping it, and be careful not to taper it through. Because it is a double-sided cut, if the cone penetrates, it will form a cross cut. If you don't have good control, you can choose to stick masking paper on the appropriate position of the awl. 3. After the zipper position is assembled, it is time to assemble the card position. First use an awl to draw the outline to be cut.

Because there are many In order to control the thickness of the layer card position combination, we need to cut the inside of the leather into a funnel shape.

Other than this If you want the outer combination to be more beautiful and feel better, it needs to be tapered, about one centimeter thinner. However, avoid areas where sutures are required to be too thin and lose strength, and try to avoid overlapping areas that are too thick.

Here we offer sacrifices The secret of Ideko Sensei: Pochi. You can control to only thin the leather to one-half of it, so as to maintain the strength of the leather. Use an edge cutter on the front edge to go a little further.This way, the thickness can be better controlled, the slope will not bulge, and the position will be more comfortable. 4. As shown in the picture, after positioning, use 2.5MM to divide the planning line, and use the 3.38 method to cut and cut the suture line.

As shown in the picture, the combination is good After the first blocking position and the second blocking position, use a ruler to measure the center line of the last blocking position, and cut the sutures from the middle of the remaining two blocking positions. Such a six card slot combination card slot is completed.

Card combination Method, copy and paste to make the other side of the card position (if it can really be better) as shown in the picture above, position the prepared card position on the inner skin and cut the sutures at the bottom card position. 5. Then comes the key point of this bag, the curved surface sticky zipper.

In leather Use a pen to draw a cross center line on the back. The vertical line is used to set the middle of the zipper cloth, and the horizontal line is used to set the middle of the zipper teeth. Draw auxiliary lines to make the zipper more neat and orderly.

Find out how to prepare The middle of a good zipper, why should we start from the middle when we glue such a zipper? This is because no matter which side we start from, we will pass through four corners, which will easily cause errors. Starting from the center line, we will only pass through two corners, which can reduce the error as much as possible.

When the zipper is stuck to the outer surface of the zipper handbag , be sure to remember to look at the zipper brand, because the distance between zipper cloths of different brands is different. The riri we use at home is glued to the third line at a distance of two centimeters. This distance must be controlled, otherwise you will find that the outer zipper cannot be pulled up after finishing.

After Use an awl to press out many small ruffles on the corners of the zipper as evenly as possible.

Sometimes press What should I do if the finish is still uneven? Here are three solutions. 1. When it is relatively flat, use a small hammer to smash it. 2. When it is very uneven, use scissors to cut off the excess and use a lighter to sinter it.

3. Next The next time you do it, make a new pattern and make the corners wider. 6. This step is finally done. After the zipper bend is glued, only the sewing with the leather is left.

When sewing, be sure to taper the inner skin stuck to the zipper cloth, otherwise it will be so difficult to sew that you feel like crying. Do not taper while suturing. It is recommended to sew with your hands to avoid getting stuck. When sewing, it is easier to sew one piece at a time than using a sewing wooden clamp. Once all is sewn, a zipper handbag is completed! A wave of finished pictures are for everyone.
