| one. First prepare an umbrella to work. Gently disappear from the frame, if necessary, we wash and thoroughly irrigate. Seam addibration along the edge of the umbrella neatly cut off right under the seam. Cut from the center of the umbrella Circle with a radius of 8-10 cm, and on the edge of the umbrella we cut a strip of 7-8 cm wide. From the circle it will be possible to make a decoration for the bag. And strips (8 or 10 pieces, depending on the number of wedges of the umbrella) we will use to process the top of the bag, clasp processing, you can also make knobs from them. By the way, if the cover is preserved from the umbrella, it can also come in handy. |
| 2. Now we count and place the folds. Folds can be one-sided, counter, bunk. It may also be different and their quantity: 8-10 by the number of wedges or 2 times more (two on each wedge). In my model there will be 16 folds. Calculation of fold width: 126 cm (length along the edge of an umbrella folded) minus 28 cm (the width of the bag in the finished form) and divide to 8 (the number of folds on the half of the umbrella), we get a little more than 12 cm. In the photo is shaded half the width of the fold. The length of the folds is 8 cm. The folds are desirable or spinning, check the width of the bag. At this stage, the width of the bag at the top can be adjusted by changing the depth of the folds. |
| 3. Stands stepping, starting in one direction ... |
| four. ... and fasten them with a machine line on the edge of the bag. |
| five. Step the bottom of the bag, spinning in the corners. Surplus fabric in corners cut off. |
| 6. Send the handles that can be made of finishing fabric, from cord for curtains, from beads, chains, strap, weave from cords, stacking from strips, which cut off the edge of the umbrella, etc. In this model, the length of the handle is 48 cm (1 m cord is cut in half and left for seams for 1 cm). |
| 7. The top of the bags are processed by a slap, which is stepping from cut at first strips. The slap is strengthened by dublin. Do not forget to make wet-thermal processing of seams. |
| eight. Let's pull out the edge of the bags, lay the finishing line at the top of the bag and irrigate. |
| nine. Go to the clasp. For a fastener, you can use the "Velcro" tape (velcro) or make a loop and sew a beautiful button. I sew zipper, while I use, so to speak simplified technology. First, the planks process the zipper. The length of the planks in the finished form is 24 cm, it means about 26 cm. Lightning length is 42 cm. The ends of the lightning are wearing pieces of fabric. |
| 10. Zippers are applied to the wrapper. |
| eleven. Go to the lining. Spread the bag on the table and put the folded folds with your hand, and you will see what size and shape you need to cut lining. We cut the lining on the shape of the bag, to the bottom of the extension more, as it will be necessary to stack the corners necessary to create volume. Press the pockets on the lining (for a mobile phone, keys, wallet - who needs something). |
| 12. Step the lining parts, leaving a small area to turn the bag. Weeping seams. Singing the side seam with the bottom, stepping the corners. |
| 13. We take the lining to the wrapper or spin the pins. Steering seams laying in the seam appling clasp slopes. |
| fourteen. Now we will deal with a decorative element for which we need a circle cut off at the beginning. I fix the thread on one of the seams of the heating of the wedges and fix 2-3 stitches in the center, just fix the next seam, the surplus is removed into the fold and so on the entire perimeter of the circle. In the center of the resulting detail, sew a beautiful button or bead. The finishing part can be done in another way: on the edge of the circle we pass slant stitches, we will tighten the thread and fix it. In the center again sew some decoration, for example, the same decorative button. |

| 17. We turn the bag, we make the final wet-thermal processing, sew a finishing part and sew the area in the seam left for turning. That's it! You can walk a new handbag and take compliments! I think that when your relatives, girlfriends, acquaintances or colleagues, find out that you have sewn your handbag, and even from a broken umbrella, you will hear a lot of nice words! I wish you success in creativity! By the way, the autumn will soon begin rain, which means breaking |
