How to Make a Custom Handbag

The first thing you have to make sure before you start to design your own handbag, is to select the type of handbag which you wish to have. It is advisable to draw a sketch or a design of the bag from all angles. Use different color combination to check how the handbag will look. Draw pockets, patterns or decorations and zippers that you would add to your handbag. This will help you try different permutations and combinations.

Once you have made the final draft of the entire handbag, make drawings of the bag from all sides and in actual dimensions on different sheets of paper. Remember to prepare designs for the inner and outer pockets. You will have to use these dimensions while making the actual handbag. If you wish to have designer inspired handbags, you can get a picture of the bag and design your own handbag according to it.

Now, place all the drawings of the dimensions on the fabric that you have selected for your handbag. You must remember to leave some space at the sides for seams. Start stitching from the inside of all the sides of the handbag. You may have to use extra fabric to stitch the inner and outer pockets. Place a cardboard inside the base to make it tough and strong, and then stitch it.

Now, attach the handles, straps and buckles to the outer side of the handbag. You can buy ready-made straps and handles as they are available in various designs. Stitch the zipper between the layers of the handbag and also for the inner and outer pockets. Finally stitch along the sides and your handbag is ready.
