DIY Monogrammed Tote Bag
I had such a great time making the monogrammed zipper bags that it got me thinking about using the same technique on a tote bag. I wanted to make a personalized tote bag that I could easily fill with my groceries or use for a weekend trip to the coast.

DIY PROJECT: TOTE BAG
Today I want to share a funny diy project - diy tote bag. Tote bag is always quite practical and it
is easy to make. Now let's get started.
Materials:
- White cotton canvas
- Dark brown fabric for the lining
- Dark brown fabric
- Leather strap for the handle
- 4 small rivets to connect the leather handle to the bag
- 2 large eyelets with a hole
Tools:
- Hammer
- Sewing machine
- Scissors
- Pins
- Chalk
- Measuring tape
- Iron
- Pattern template
Instructions:
1. Cut two large pieces of fabric according to the pattern.
2. Pin the small piece of dark fabric to the white canvas.
3. Sew together.
4. Fold the lining in two and stitch the side edges together.
5. Create volume. Give the bag sides by stitching the lower corners together. To do this, open the bag and place the two side seams on top of each other. You will create a triangular fold, with the two corners now forming two triangles on top of each other.
6. Mark where you want the seams with the chalk and stitch each corner.
7. Repeat these steps with the white fabric. Make sure to turn the pretty side (the one that will become the outside) inside. When the bag is finished, all seams will be invisible between the lining and the outside. That’s the point of using a lining, apart from the pretty contrast when the bag is finished.
8. Put the lining inside the outer fabric. Make sure that the good sides, the ones that will eventually be visible, are positioned against each other.
9. Stitch the edges together around the bag.
10. Now the really fun part: Pull out the lining and look for the hole you left open in one of the side seams. Through this hole you can pull the whole bag inside out until it is completely reversed and all of the seems have become invisible. Use the iron again to flatten the edges and the side seams. The sewing part is done!
11. The last step is to add the eyelets and connect the strap to the bag. Eyelets and rivets usually come with some tools to make the right holes in the fabric and to keep their form when hammering them into place. Add one eyelet to either side of the bag, in the middle of each flap.
12. Stick the leather strap through one of the eyelets and connect it with two rivets to the opposing side of the bag. Do the same with the other end of the strap.
Finished! Now you can go shopping with this personalized tote bag.
