Step 1
Select 2 fabrics that coordinate. For bags, I like to use home decor fabric because it is thicker and generally 60 inches wide. Cut the following pieces:
18″ x 10″ (back)
12″ x 10″ (front)
6″ x 7″ (pocket)
50″ x 2 1/2″ (strap)
11″ x 9 1/2″ (fleece for front)
17″ x 9 1/2″ (fleece for back)
5 1/2″ x 6 1/2″ (fleece) -
Step 3
Sew the pocket. Iron the fleece on the pocket and then sew the wrong sides of the two fabrics together, leaving an opening to turn the fabric right side out. Iron the pocket and then sew all the way around the edges to ensure a nice edge.
Sew the pocket on the back side of the bag, on the outside fabric, centering it across and about 2 inches up from the bottom. -
Step 8
Now it’s time to assemble the bag. The strap is actually the bottom and sides too. If you want the strap longer, just cut it longer than 50 inches. Find the exact center of the strap and the exact center of the bottom of the bag and pin it together, outside fabrics together. Then pin it in place all the way around. The picture shows the corners so you can see how to get around the extra fabric. Sew it together.
