Recycled bag is one of the alternative you can do with your old goods. This one is recycled bag from old suit pants. This recycled bag is cool and nice.
Your old suit pants can be formed to other recycled craft like pillow, breadbag, little pants, bracelet and many more. This photos and guide will teach you how to make a bag from old suit pants easier. In this guide you will learn how to make a bag for your camera.
How to make a bag:
Turkish crafter over at thelightgarden.blogspot.com has teached this guide.
1. I found an old pair of Senols suit pants – the style with the tab that goes over to the button (as this will form the closure on the camera pouch). To get the right size for my camera I first put the camera directly below the button on the pants and wrapped the material up the sides. I added an extra couple of centimetres on each side for ‘room to move’ and I also added an extra couple of centimetres on each side for seams…and just in case! This forms ‘Piece 1′ – the front of the pouch.
2. ‘Piece 2′ of the pouch (the back) needs to be with the tab from the pants at the top as indicated in the photo. I made this piece roughly the size of the back of my camera (with some room to move) plus 2cm on the sides and bottom to allow for the seams.
3. First, to sew up one side of the camera pouch I pinned the two pieces together. However because piece 2 already had a nice finished edge, I wanted this to show, so instead of pinning them right sides facing, I pinned it with the piece 2 at the back with piece 1 on top (you can see this in the photo). Then I sewed along the right side of the already finished edge (about 2mm inwards) to join the pieces.
4. Then you folded along the new join so that the right sides of each were facing and sewed along the second side seam.
5. Then you moved the tube of material around so that the button and the tab were lined up, then pinned and sewed the bottom of the pouch like that.
6. Then it just needed to be turned out the right way and the recycle bag was finished!
