Posted on October 7 · 49 Comments I’m kicking off a new type of article for Frugal and Thriving - I’ve been around the web and back again to compile some of the best free online tutorials and resources for a given category – today: making bags. Both the title and the picture are links to the tutorial. I’m not much of a sewer, but I’m trying. I made a bag recently and have gone a little bit bag crazy.

New Green Mama: Reversible Messenger Bag Tutorial

With Spring here already and Summer just around the corner I decided that I needed to make myself a new warm weather bag. I wanted it to be pretty, but also practical and I did not want to take forever to make it! For the fabric I turned to Carr Textiles Organic Cotton Duck Canvas . Not only is it sturdy, but it's also made with 100% organic cotton and comes in great colors, plus it's 60-inches wide, so even one yard is a lot of fabric.

Preppy pink plaid messenger from reclaimed fabrics - PURSES, BAGS, WALLETS

I love, love, love using old and/or thrifted clothing for bags and totes! For me, the thrift store is like a super discount fabric store. My goal is to use recycled fabrics in such a way that they don't look recycled.
Over Labor Day weekend, I got to go to my Grandparents' cabin at Fish Lake, Utah, and it was a BLAST! My Mom, who always plans fun activities for the family, brought the materials to make Duct Tape Purses. After I saw the creativity...I just HAD to show you all how to make them. :) Below is my daughter Oaklyn's creation: I thought her purse turned out very cute!

Sewing: TriFold Floral Wallet {Tutorial & Pattern}

This is the trifold wallet I made by using the embroidery with flower applique couching on it. You can get the pattern and tutorial on the embroidery work here . Design and sew this wallet only took me a night to complete (with the embroidery face ready), but begin a novice in Illustrator, drafting and finalizing the pattern took me days.
This idea was born of a need to keep drawing notebooks and colouring materials together when travelling. It holds up to 4 A4 notebooks (though really designed for only 3) and 24 pencils/texters. Easy to carry and just folds open. Inside Materials

Fully lined zippered box pouch - pattern and tutorial - it's a Pretty Modern life

I love the look of a zippered box pouch...so incredibly cute. I found many tutorials on the internet, but was disappointed after making pouches following these tutorials to find that they were not fully lined; looks so much nicer when you open your pouch and there are no seams. It took me a long time to figure it out and I thought and thought and thought...then I got it♥ I don't want to keep this knowledge to myself, so here it is.
