Nice evening to you all. I changed my mind & decided to proceed to the next tutorial which is another design of souvenir bag. It's one of the souvenir bags posted at the beginning of this thread. It's called "Singlet Bag".

Enjoy!

This a simple utility bag that can be used personally
or given out as souvenirs at events or company
promotional gift.
I will show us how to make this bag. But you must
be able to sew because it is all sewn up, no gums!
You can use any bag material of your choice like:
* Taffeta
* Satin
* Leather
* Net etc
You can make any size you like.

Materials

* Taffeta(Plain)
* Belt(For handles)
* Scissors
* Matching thread
* Sewing machine

Procedure

* Cut 2 rectangles(13"x15" from your bag material.
13" is the width, 15" is length. These two pieces are
for the front & back of your bag.
* Cut another small rectangle for your bottom piece.
This measurement depends on the size of your bag.
For the size we are making, it will be 9"x4". 9" is
width, 4" is length.

Sewing Your Bag

* Fold your front & back pieces into two lengthwise
& draw lines to shape them into a singlet & cut out.
See pictures below.

* Cut a piece of belt as long as the width of your
front piece and stitch across the width of your front
piece towards the upper part of it. This step is
optional because it is just to decorate the front part
of your bag. Cut another belt piece, shape it into a
bow and sew in the middle of the belt you sewed
across the width of your bag as decoration.

* Fold your belt over the "neck" portion of your
singlet shape & sew to bind this portion first.

* Next, fold your belt over the "arm-hole" portion of
your singlet bag & bind. On reaching the tip (where
it meets with the neck), continue stitching your
folded belt alone to form the slender(spaghetti)
handle of the bag. When the handle is long enough,
attach the folded belt to the second arm-hole side of
the bag. Bind and finish off.

* Repeat this same step(3&4) to bind the back piece
of the bag both at the neck & arm-hole sections.

* Bring the front & back pieces together, right sides
facing & stitch together on the two sides.

* Pin the bottom piece to the body of the bag.

* Sew the bottom piece to the body of the bag.

* Turn right sides out and you're done!

You've done well, elsy5. We clap for you as the first to post the photo of your work. As promised, I'll send you your gift via whatsapp or bbm.
There's no material called "souvenir material". It's up to you to use any material of your choice.
I encourage you to try out the other projects we've taught in this thread.

Thank you so much FIRST 2B.. will try out the singlet bag since tafeta is easier to find.

IS IT D SAME TAFFITA WE USE IN SEWING CLOTH?

GREAT @ELSY. PLS HERE DID U GET UR MATERIALS?

@noncy.. I stay in warri.. it was so difficult finding the common souvenir bag material.. so I bought leather... u can get ur leather at any store where dey sell materials 4 making shoes..and chairs.

Taffeta for sewing clothes is different from taffeta bag materials. Taffeta Bag material is stiff so it can hold & sit upright when sewn into bags.

Here I am thinking it's the same taffeta 4 cloths..

Bag taffeta is different from fabric taffeta.
