Fabric Tips for Jewelry Bags

Video Transcript

"So now we are ready to go over the different pieces that we are going to need for this jewelry bag. There's eight pieces and let's start going over those. The first one is the handle which is just one solid piece and we fold it over twice, then one more to make this big piece. Then we have the body which is just a round circle and a lining which is the exact duplicate of this. A round circle also. Then we have the drawstring which is one long piece but when I'm ready to insert it into the bag I cut it in half and I run one piece around this side to the hole, then this one goes around the other side, so the idea is when I open it, this is the way it closes it, it pulls each side against the other and closes it. Then I also have the drawstring stops, these guys, I make these out of fabric. You don't really have to have them on the bag. I like to have them on because it keeps it closed when you want it to be closed. And the last two pieces that we need are kind of hard to see, but they are right in here, it's basically the lining to make the drawstring opening and when we get closer to this you will see exactly how I'm going to put this in. Actually it's real simple, I've just made a square on the side of the fabric out of the fabric and we'll show you how to do that in a next. We will show you how to do that in a later clip but what we are going to do next, I'm going to show you piece by piece which pieces need to be cut out of which fabric and we'll go over those pieces when we get there."
