Instructions on how to sew a Tote bag
It has one layer of fabric on the top, another on the bottom, and I made the inner third. So you can customize it to your liking!
Step 1: Measure and cut to pieces
From your bottom fabric cut 2 pieces 17 inches wide by 8 inches long
From your top fabric cut 2 pieces 17 inches wide by 12 inches long
Waiting to cut your inner fabric
For your straps (from your preferred fabric), cut 2 pieces measuring 31 inches by 4 inches
Step 2: Join the two pieces of fabric on the bottom together
Place the top fabric on the bottom fabric with the right sides together and sew them together. Do this for both pieces and then iron the seam flat.
Step 3: Treat the inner and outer fabric pieces
With one of the pieces you just sewed, place it on your inner lining and use it as a guide to cut out the inner fabric to match what you just created. Cut 2 layers of your inner fabric.
Sew the two inside pieces together around the sides and bottom with the right side.
Sew both of your outer pieces together around both sides and bottom with the right side.
Step 4: How to cut and sew the corner of a tote bag
Now you will create these upper box corners. To do this, take the bottom corner of the bag and rotate it so that the fabric is positioned like this:
Next, you'll sew a seam on the top end of that triangle a few inches down from the top:
Then cut off that corner. Do this with both the outer and inner corners.
Step 5: Make the straps
Take your long pieces and fold them in half the length with the sides facing each other and sew them together. Turn right side out (this will be a bit difficult and time-consuming. I use chopsticks or scissors to help push the fabric). Press the straps flat with the seam in the center of the back:
Step 6: Sew the straps to the bag
Now, slide your straps inside the bag in between the inner and outer fabrics. Make sure that the seam on the back of the fabric is facing the inside of the bag and pin everything in place like this. Have the fabric cover and strap the ends between your inner and outer layers of fabric on both sides and have the ends protrude slightly.
Step 7: Done
Sew all around the top of the bag leaving a 4-inch hole to rotate it. Turn the right pocket out and tuck it inside. Press the entire bag. Fold the opening and press it so that it looks like the stitched part. So it's done
How to Mix & Match with Tote bag?
