How to Pick a Handmade Purse Style

Hi, I'm Melina Piroso and welcome to Expert Village. Today I'm going to show you how to make a cute little bag of regular everyday fabrics. I have a few samples of bags that I have made from everyday fabrics that I have laying around my house. This bag right here was made from a old sweater. Y you can see this is the front sweater part. I have added some Velcro to make a pocket. I have added some designs. I have made the strip from a old pair of jeans. The lining is made out of old tee shirts that I have dyed. Then you have this bag right that was made out of old pajama bottoms and drew a little drawing and put it on a transfer. Then I put it on here and I made a little patch. Then the same thing I did with this one it kind of gave a interesting shape and I made these straps out of sweater fabric. This one also this was some fabric that I bought at thrift store. So I'm going to show you how to make simple little bag out of regular everyday fabric. You don't have to spend a lot of money and you don't have to be super crafty. All you really need are 4 pieces of fabric one long strip for the strap and thread.
