Greetings, everyone, and happy blessed Wednesday. How are you all doing? I hope you all are doing well. I am very happy to share a post here with you all in this community, which is all about making a mini bag for my sewing materials like threads, scissors, shuttle, Wheeler, etc.
These ideas come to my mind when I discover most of my sewing tools get lost just because the bag I use to put them has spoiled, and I need to make a new one.
I remember I had leather that I was supposed to use for my baby when I gave birth, but it was too small for me to use.
Therefore, I choose to make use of it today to make this beautiful mini handbag you all see here.
After sewing the bag, I really fall in love with the outcome, and to tell you the truth, I am thinking of using the bag for my outfit because it is too beautiful.
This is my first time trying to make a bag. I hope I try.
I will still do another one but more beautiful than this for my outfit.
Let's look at the material I use and the steps I follow to make the bag.
Material used
- maroon leather
- sewing machine
- scissors
- measurement tape
- thread
- chalk
- zip etc
To begin the process, I first draw my measurements on the leather with the help of chalk and a ruler. See the photo below.
I first cut the two sides with measurements of 9½ inches by 5 inches.
I then cut the round part of the back, which is 16½ inches by 3 inches. See the photo below.
For the top where I put the zip, I made two cuts with the measurements of 2 inches by 11 inches
I then cut my hand also with the measurements of 12 inches by 1½ inches.
And that is all for the cutting.
Sewing process
I first sew the zip to one part of the leather that I am to use for the zip and then sew on top to make it smooth.
I then sew the remaining part, and here is the outcome of it.
Finally, I put the zip successfully, and the next thing I sewed was to bend the hand of the bag with double line sewing.
I then sew the hand to the top at a zip point with a distance of 2 inches from the center of it. See the photo below.
At the end, where the zip stops, I join the leather I will be using for the round base at both ends. Below is a photo of it.
I then sew one of the sides to it, marking the center and making sure they all meet his mark.
After sewing it, I run a thread on top of it to make it smooth.
I then proceed to join the other side of the bag and sew a top to the side to make it smooth.
Here is the inner part of the bag.
Here is the finished work
I then park my sewing material inside.
Finally, I have my new sewing bag ready.
I am still thinking of making another bag of my sewing material and then using this very one when going out. How do you see it?

If I were so talented, I would make a new bag every day to store my stuff 🥺 and do not buy any drawers in my house because I make such bags for keeping stuff then i just need cupboard to store them.
I don't need any drawer.
This is outstanding i never saw such a talent. I'm tired of shopping for bags to store my makeup
If I had known they were so easy to make, I would have made them myself. I will give it try once for sure 🙈🙈🙈🙈 Thanks for sharing
Very interesting reply. Like me this is my first time doing this an I believe you can do it same. Thanks for stopping by I really appreciate your
I've saved a number bag sewing tutorials and I never tried any, seeing your bag now has encouraged me.
I observed you used a manual machine, please how did you go about the neat sewing or is there a special kind of needle for leather?
Wow, Thanks so much dear
Wow what a beauty I congratulate you, sewing leather is a real challenge hehe, it was very beautiful.

This is really good and very neat stitches. It's good that one can use their sewing skill to make sew virtually anything. I'm happy to see you sewing bags

Si que te ha quedado muy bonito. Para usarlo para tu outfit sería bueno le coloques un forro y así no se ven las costuras.
Aunque viendo que te quedo genial, podrías hacer uno más para tu uso personal.
