How to sew a bag over your shoulder and on what pattern? This will be our article.

Baggage with a shoulder strap can have a different shape: a square, a semicircle, a rectangle. The following patterns will allow the craftswomen to sew the model, taking into account their desires and preferences for the color of fabric, leather and other details.

The material for sewing bags you can choose the most diverse: genuine and artificial leather, jeans, velveteen, tarpaulin.

This is a capacious bag, where a convenient braid serves as a fastener. The shape allows you to decorate it with applique, lace, shuttlecocks from different fabrics.

Baggage with one-piece handles. For this pattern will be a good beach bag. A great advantage when creating a model will be the lack of a separate sewing of pens. One-piece handles are sewn simultaneously with the main parts.

A cute clutch will allow you to keep all the necessary little things at hand if the girls have planned a walk in the park or a meeting with friends. The chain strap will make it stylish and effective.

The photo shows just three styles of the product. Each pattern has its advantages.

1. The banana style resembles a sports bag, which is suitable for sports.
2. A pouch on a lace strap consists of several wedges and a long shoulder strap. You can sew such a pouch with or without a lining. In the first case, it is worth choosing dense fabrics that will hold the shape of the luggage well. For lined handbags, any lightweight materials are suitable.
3. The third option resembles a saddle bag. Its shape allows you to choose any finish: applique, patch, embroidery and other decor.

The strap allows you to carry hand luggage on your shoulder. Everyone has long been accustomed to the fact that the length of the strap should be adjustable. Therefore, we get down to business.

Required:

1. Material for the belt.
2. Carbine.
3. Non-woven or felt (if the belt is made of leather).

The sewing steps are as follows:

• Cut the strap to the desired length and width. The size of the width is taken arbitrarily, but in the finished form, the strap should correspond to the width of the buckle. When cutting, take the double width of the belt. Buckle allows you to adjust the length of the belt.

• The length of the strap is taken into account the adjustment in the finished product.
• Cut interlining with a length equal to the length of the belt and a width reduced by 0.5 mm. This will make the shoulder strap even and beautiful when sewing.
• Insert the non-woven into the belt, fold the belt and lay the machine line.
• Now you need to insert the buckle into the belt for adjustment.

In the video you can see how to properly insert such accessories.

• The carabiner will allow to unfasten the belt. If the luggage is made of fabric, the carabiner must be inserted through the ends of the belt and sewn. In the bag, rings or small loops must first be inserted, for which the carabiner will cling.
• On a leather belt, the carabiner should be secured with holniten. Insert the carabiner into the leather blank of the belt on one side.
• Bend the edge, punch a hole under the roof and insert the part. Holniten can be inserted by itself with a machine or hammer. A bag repair shop will surely help solve this problem.
• The second edge of the belt is processed by analogy with the first.
