Remember my
Evolution Of A Bag? This is the next generation.
For this bag, I wanted to address the issue of bottoms. I wanted to make the bag bottoms firmer? I did this with the help of a band.
The band (the red curvy part) is sewn onto the front and back of the bag. The band makes the bottom heavier so I added piping to the side gusset. Yes, piping! I've used piping on bags before and it can be a lot of work.
I used Ikea fabric because the fabric is like a painting. This is one side.
This is the other side.
Side gusset with piping.
