Recently, I decided to sew a pretty Teddy lady :) And a handbag with a clasp had to complete her image. I want to share the tutorial on making the bag with you :)
You need:
- clasp (I used the smallest, 6 cm)
- velvet
- fabric for lining (gabardine)
- canvas (of any colour)
- Iris floss
- ordinary thread
- needle
- scissors
- wooden stick
- crochet hook
- a pen or pencil
- pins
- pattern
- embroidery scheme
The pattern and the embroidery scheme:
Print in the desired size and cut out.
Transfer it to lining and velvet:
Cut out with sharp scissors with allowances:
Sew the canvas manually to the backside of velvet:
Embroider:
Here's how the right side of the handbag looks :)
The auntie will be happy :)
Sew the details in pairs at the bottom line of the cut. You get two pockets.
And sew them together at the upper line of the cut. Leave a hole for turning outside in:
Use the wooden stick for turning. Here's what you get :)
Pull the lining inside the purse.
Sew the clasp with floss. Pick a bead every time you pass and bring the needle back. Will look very neat :) To make a handle for the handbag, crochet a cord out of chains and sew to the purse.
That's what comes out at the end! Thank you for your attention!
