Autumn Cape Bag 2022 Part 51

Now the Toggles are finished I can move on to the Sides of the Green Bag

Add Weight

 

Since the Toggles are placed at different Levels on the Bag, I decided it would be a good idea to test it with Weight inside it. Therefore, I placed a heavy Weight in the form of a carton of milk.

I then lifted it up to check where the Levels fell. Then I placed a pin at the Bottom so I would know how much material I would need to add to the Sides.

Pin and Cut

 

I measured a piece of Green Material and Folded it in Half. I then Pinned it in place so I could cut it along the Length with Pinking Scissors. This would stop it moving whilst I cut.

Take Two

 

I Hemmed the Two pieces of Material nearly to the Bottom. I have left some loose for turning later.

Join at Top

 

I take one of the pieces of Material I have Hemmed and Joined it at the Top of the Green Bag with a Blanket Stitch.
