Triangle Bag **with tutorial**

[SewPixie]

Hokay so..this is a completed project but more of a trial of an idea. That being the case I didn't stay super careful with stitches and the like.

Here is it. A one-strap triangle bag.


I forgot about an opening to insert the lower part of the strap so I just made do. I also wound up sewing the lining the wrong way and the seams show inside. doh!


Here is Pixie my duct tape double wearing the bag.


And here she is from the front with the strap coming across her chest. She's wearing a half-done shirt that after seeing this picture I realize I will so need a cami on under it.

How ingenius!!    I love it!! I'm envious of your creative mind.

Any thoughts about posting a tutorial??  *hoping, hoping*

Once I work out the problems I had and try again, I'd be happy to put together a tute. 

One of the things I wanted was a simple enough design that is wasn't a pain in the neck to make. I had two sort of failed attempts last night that were more rounded traditional backpack shapes.

That's a supercool bag....very nice, and I like the way it sits when worn.

Very, very nice.

I can't wait for a tutorial - I've been wanting to try a bag like this, but I'm too chicken.

very cute!!! I've been wanting to make a backpack diaper bag for a while. can't wait for the tutorial! what's up with that cool decorative stitch on the strap and around the zipper? is that something your sewing machine does?

i love this bag...a tutorial would be the most amazing thing...it does look complicated though.

I'm hope this weekend or next week I can make my 2nd attempt on the bag and take pics for a tutorial.

Thanks all for the nice comments.

Oh and hillary, yeah it's a decorative stitch on my machine. I figure since I have them I may as well use them.
