DIY fabric flower bag
To do this, take:
- thick fabric for the front side;
- lining fabric;
- fabric for applique with flowers;
- doublerin;
- threads;
- magnetic clasp;
- sewing accessories.
Cut out a 41 x 22 cm rectangle from the main canvas. You will need 2 of these. Also, you need to cut out a part for two belts from it. Each will be 41 x 10 cm. Cut two pieces 41 x 22 cm from the lining.
Fold the lining fabric right sides in half. Sew the sidewalls. Sew corners 1 and 2 of this piece to get the shape.
This is how such a bag with flowers is sewn further. Put a flower on a dense fabric, doublerin, sew it here with a zigzag seam on a typewriter. Cut off the excess. Then you will need to sew the flower onto the front side of the main bag.
If your main fabric is of insufficient density, then use dublerin for making handles.
Place the glue dublerin on the wrong side of one handle and attach it with a hot iron. Now fold the handle in half lengthways and stitch the large and small sides. Turn the blank over your face by inserting a wooden stick, pencil or something similar inside. Make the second handle in the same way. Now you will need to stitch the long edges of both belts to keep them in shape. Pin the handles in place.
If you want the lining and the main part of the bag to be fixed not only at the top, but also at the bottom, then sew the corners of these two parts together.
Attach the magnetic clasp, and then tuck the top of the garment to sew both the garment and the handles of the bag at the same time.
This is what a wonderful product has turned out - beautiful and practical. But there are many more options for how to make women's handbags with flowers. You will be able to make them from the available material.
Such a thing is also sewn from the main and lining fabric. And as a belt, you can use either a dense material or a leather belt. To make such adorable flowers, you will need to cut a strip from the same fabric as the bag details and sew it in half. Then you need to pick up along the inner edge and tighten the thread to make a circle. Create another ribbon flower in the same way. Sew it onto the front of the bag.
Such things will come in handy for adults. But girls like to carry bags too. See what kind of thing you can create for them.

Creation of bags with flowers using felting technique
This technique will help you create an unusual designer bag in a very interesting way.
There will be not only flowers, but a whole composition on the theme of the history of "Alice in Wonderland". First, draw a sketch of the bag, then put the prepared drawing on the floor insulation, cut it out. Place the template on a flat surface with bubble wrap on top. Spread out the coarse Czech wool so that it hardly goes beyond the outline of the template. It will need 4 layers. Wet, seal with a grinder. If you do not have such a tool, then use simple felting techniques.
Now place the pattern on top of this woolen half of the bag. Place four layers of Czech wool on it again, wrap its edges over the first piece. Dampen the wool again and walk with a sander. In this case, you have two parts of the bag will connect at the edges.
We begin to decorate the front part. For this, a New Zealand corridale of different colors was used here. Place these materials on the first and second sides of the bag.
Roll on this New Zealand wool, but lightly. Then put the strings here, they will become the branches and trunks of trees. Place a bit of wool on top to add thickening to these details.
Further, such a bag with flowers is done as follows. Use colored merino wool to mark Alice's face and door. Also paint the trees.
Assign these details to the main creation. After that, you can get the pattern, which is located between the two halves of the bag. To do this, you need to cut the bag from the top side and get this diagram.
Then turn your piece inside out and lay it on a hand-made washboard. It's comfortable.
When the canvas has acquired the desired density and shape, dry it, then iron it with steam. After that, you can take out shreds, buttons, threads and finish.
You can embroider flowers or cut them out of lace or a suitable fabric and sew here. Use threads to embroider part of the face, the arch of the door and other elements. Attach the buckle and strap. You will get a beautiful bag with flowers based on the famous fairy tale.
You can also make these items from wool and decorate your creation with them. Then you will have a completely felted bag with flowers. Such a handmade thing is expensive, and you will make it yourself, but with the help of a master class and step-by-step photos.
Here is such a wonderful poppy as a result. To do it, take:
- plywood sheet or suitable surface;
- bubble wrap;
- soap solution;
- green and red merino wool;
- silk or viscose fibers;
- bamboo mat;
- synthetic mesh;
- vibration grinder;
- salvitosis;
- some dark wool for the stamens;
- car sponge;
- felting needle number 38.
Put the bumpy wrap on the plywood, pull the strand out from the main wool without breaking this piece. Fold it up, put it on the film, giving it a round shape. Then place the black rayon on this piece in this way.
Cover this semi-finished product with a mesh and prepare a hot solution. To do this, dilute Fairy dishwashing liquid or similar in water. Lather it up.
Water the flower blank with this product and work with a vibrating sander. This tool must be applied to one place and kept there for a few seconds. Then you need to lift and put the machine in another area.
After that, you can remove the mesh. At this stage, several hairs can be attached there. You will carefully tear them off, and then again work with a sander on this grid, but more intensively. Now remove this mesh and cover the workpiece with some bubble wrap. Now you can drive around it more actively using a grinder.
After 5 minutes of such work, remove the sander and rub the flower through the film with a gloved hand. Then place the piece on the bamboo mat. Roll the flower together with the bubble wrap and start rolling this roll intensively.
Spread out the flower blank. After that, again roll the roll of the above materials and flop again. To make the process go faster, pour boiling water over the poppy. Then place it in cold water. Then it will already be possible to mark the petals of the future poppy with scissors.
Dip the flower in soapy water, rub the blank through the film. Then it remains to rinse it thoroughly, then pour boiling water over it and immediately place it in cold water.
To remove excess moisture, blot the poppy with a towel. After that, it remains to straighten it and iron it with an iron. Now prepare the salvitosis solution. This powder is diluted with a little warm water to form a gel. This solution will help the flower keep its shape.
Place the blank of the flower here, then shape it and place it to dry on the battery. While it dries, you will make a poppy core.
Take a piece of green wool and roll it into a circle. Then form an even ball with a felting needle. When doing this, be careful not to injure your fingers. Take a needle and black thread. Using these tools, divide the core into equal sectors.
Now take the yarn and cut it into pieces. Put the core on this blank and sew.
When the petals are dry, put the resulting center piece into them and also connect with a thread and a needle.
