Sports bags: patterns and sewing description
Everyone needs a sports bag. It is unlikely that there is such a person who at least once did not need such a baggage. Simple patterns and a detailed workshop will allow girls to have a gym bag of their own making.
How to sew with your own hands?
A sports bag with handles without a belt - today a master class is dedicated to such luggage.
What to cook?
- Old newspaper (the larger the newspaper, the larger the bag will be).
- You will also need other tools: scissors, a ruler, a simple pencil. Why draw a pattern with a pencil? The pencil will not leave marks on the pattern and material.
- A bag is a thing that should serve its owner for a long time and be durable. Special materials with water-repellent impregnation will be the best option for sewing. But the following fabrics are also suitable: tarpaulin, raincoat fabric. Lining: quilted synthetic winterizer, fleece to seal the bottom.
- Accessories: zipper (60 cm) in the desired color, rings for bags.
Continuation of the master class:
- Fold the newspaper in half. The corners of the pages should be aligned with each other.
- The next step is similar to making an airplane as a child. Fold the corners of the newspaper, keeping a distance from the center. Draw a straight line on the folded part of the newspaper (where the corners are folded). In the photo you can see how the line should be drawn. The horizontal line is drawn along an oblique line. This is done for a reason: the upper part of the newspaper will be the bag itself, the lower part will be the bottom.
- Cut the top of the newspaper along the marked line and cut at the center of the folded newspaper. The drawing of the bag is ready. Make legend on the drawing: top - with a large letter A; bottom - in capital B, outline the fold.
- Cut the product with seam allowances.
- Baste and sew on the top of the bag with the bottom. Seams can be made on the front or on the wrong side.Decorate the outer seams with a wide tape. Sew on zipper fastener.
- Using the same pattern, you need to cut out the luggage lining. Sew pockets of the required size on the lining.
- Reinforce the bottom with fleece. It is stitched with a machine stitch from the wrong side of the lining (then it will not be visible inside the bag).
- Cut out the handles for the bag (the length is optional). Sew the handles to the product.
- Fold the front part of the bag with the finished lining with the wrong sides to each other. Pin, baste and stitch on the machine. Trim open sections inside the bag with a bias tape. The bag is ready.
Large female fitness model
To work out in gyms, you need sportswear and shoes. A fitness bag should be roomy. Small pockets inside will allow you not to lose the little things you need for your home: keys, phone, wallet. Using this pattern, you can sew a banana bag.
The drawing of the sports bag is such that the dimensions can be easily changed up or down.
The entire manufacturing sequence of the product is similar to the previous master class (you can focus on it).
The banana bag has one large compartment. Short handles and a shoulder strap add comfort on the road.
Tall rectangular bag it will turn out if you take such a pattern as a basis. Size of the finished product: 42: 20: 28 cm. Pockets can be sewn on the outside and inside the bag. Zip closure on pockets - additional protection for the safety of things.
Backpack pattern can be useful for those girls who prefer to free their hands from their bags on the road. A backpack located on the shoulder will allow you to quickly pay for travel in transport, take a child by the hand or do other important things.
The drawing shows all the little things you need when sewing: where to sew a zipper, a bar, the location of the pattern on the fabric (along the shared thread).
Bucket bag: master class
This master class is suitable for those mothers whose children wear a shift to school. A bag with a pocket with the child's initials is a convenient option for all sports activities of your child.
What is required?
- raincoat fabric (you can choose another fabric);
- cord;
- artificial leather - for applique (initials);
- rings for threading the cord;
- threads to match the material.
You can measure the length of the cord using an old shoe bag or measure it along the straps of a school backpack and add the length of the cord to the insert in the drawstring.
The drawing consists of building rectangles:
- Bag - 64x40 cm (2 parts).
- Contrasting addition to the bag 40x24 (2 parts).
- Pocket - 16x21 (1 piece).
The work begins with processing the pocket:
- Hem the upper part with a hem seam with a closed cut.
- Cut out large initials of the child from imitation leather and sew on the pocket.
- Letters are sewn with a straight stitch without zigzag processing.
- Sew the pocket to the main part of the bag.
- Next, align the main parts of the bag and pin with pins. Connect the bag and the contrasting pad with machine stitching.
- Sketch and stitch the sides of the bag, but not completely, you need to leave space for the drawstring.
- Bend the top edge of the bag so that the cord can be inserted.
- Faux leather corners will help to strengthen the corners of the bag. Cut a right triangle out of leather (2 pieces). The corners are sewn to the bottom of the bag.
- Punch the rings for the cord at the corners.
- It remains to thread the cord into the bag. How to insert the cord is shown in the photo.
