Made Shaving Kit for my son
 
3 Attachment(s)
Maybe some of you will remember the fabric I used to make a messenger bag for a friend. Well, there was some left over and my son needed a new shaving kit. I lined the inside with a light weight vinyl so it could be wiped up if anything spilled in it. I used soft and stable for the stabilizer. Great stuff. The pattern is Ditty Bags by Annie. What do you think? I love it - think I will make myself a bag as well.

Very classy indeed!!! You've given me some serious ideas for Christmas presents.

bailey 05-01-2013 09:51 AM

Thanks everyone for the encouragement. If you have never tried "soft and stable" for your bags and totes - give it a try - you won't be sorry.

susansomethings 05-01-2013 03:51 PM

This is very nice...my hubby would love one...where you get the pattern?

Thank you for posting the photo and showing the inside. I am putting this on my list for Christmas gifts for my 2 sons....and make-up pouch for my daughter.

I have never sewn with vinyl. What type of Foot did you use? If you have any tips, please let me know.

Thank you!

TacoMama 05-02-2013 04:24 AM

Great job! Love the fabric.

kittiebug 05-02-2013 04:27 AM

WOW..... very nice great sewing.:thumbup: :thumbup:

Gerbie 05-02-2013 04:31 AM

Now just how cool is that!! Did you have a special pattern? That would make great gifts for the male members of my family. Looks like it would work out just right for a makeup kit as well. and appears to be washable.

gabeway 05-02-2013 04:43 AM

Came out great.

Nanjun 05-02-2013 04:43 AM

Thank you!

I quilted my fabric first and then just added a very lightweight piece of vinyl (sewed it to the quilted piece by sewing all around the edge to attach). Used my walking foot to attach the vinyl - it is a little harder to work with once you have the vinyl attached - just go slowly and try not to use too bad a language. LOL The end result is worth the extra struggle with the vinyl.

Thanks everyone for your compliments. It would be a great bag for either men or women. We all need bags for stuff! This only took one day to complete so line up those names for Christmas and start your machines....

Just had a thought - you could probably use that PUL fabric for diaper liners, bibs etc instead of vinyl.
