Great bag and I love the fabric. I have tried and failed several times with a divider inside a bag. How did you get yours to work?

Love the bag and design. Any chance of a tut? Also, where did you get your labels? The whole thing is just awesome. 

Great bag! I just recently sold two of my bags on Etsy and I too was a little nervous on what to price them at. One sold for $25 and the other for $30. I agree that $10 for labor is a good place to start. Take into consideration the type of fabric you used and other embelishments and don't sell yourself short. I did my first art/craft show and I sold two bags and received two custom orders. People will pay good money for a handmade item. If anything, start out by pricing your items a little lower and if they sell then gradually increase the price by just a little. I've done that and I've had good sucess. I'm not trying to gouge people but I want to be paid for my time and labor.

Good luck!

Love the fabric!!!

As far as making the bag more sturdy I have used fusiable interfacing on both the outer and lining fabric. It can make it a little tough to turn right side out but once you iron it it looks great.  It's sturdy but it's not overkill if that makes sense. I'm still experimenting with different types of interfacing too.

Great sewing job too.

Great job! Isn't it fun to take something like pants and turn them into a purse? I have the most fun on projects like this.

Lovei it!!!!

I like the dog and cat logo. Love your work too

Very nice! I was born in Weisbaden (parden my spelling) Germany.

Love the shape of the bag and the lining.

Really like the fabric and congrats on your first order. Doesn't it feel great!!!

I have looked near and far on Crafster and can't seem to find a good tutorial to put a divider in a tote bag or purse. Does anyone know of one?

I had my first craft show this weekend and I received a request for one in a custom bag.

Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks!

I really like the shape of the purse and your use of colors. Did you make up your own pattern? I think the lining turned out well. It can be tricking sometimes.
