In this class you will make a gorgeous, shaped belt bag perfect for your own adventures or gifting. The skills taught in this class include: how to sew darts; sewing a lined welt zip; bias binding; and bag hardware installation. This bag is highly customizable. You will go home with the pattern and ready to practice new bag making skills. An alternative to the webbing strap could be repurposing an old belt, or from a bag you no longer use. Thrift stores are full of interesting belts and hardware to harvest from bags! 
This class is appropriate for a sewer with knowledge of how to use a sewing machine and sewing basics. If you’re not sure if you’re ready for this class, email and ask any questions you might have beforehand. If you are new to sewing, please check out our Sewing Fundamentals | Meet the Machine or Family & Beginners Sewing 101 | Sewing Machine Basics before enrolling.

The bag pattern is the Nikola Pouch by Liberty Crossroads.

ABOUT THE INSTRUCTOR:
Paige Plihal is a sewist, knitter, and dye artist who will try anything crafty once! A love of craft and a DIY spirit were always encouraged in her childhood (she learned to sew at 8 years old), and she began sewing in earnest in 2009. After a four-year stint selling home-sewn baby carriers and accessories on Etsy, she found the online sewing community and leapt head-first into garment sewing. She hasn’t looked back. She loves melding fashion and style while building an intentional wardrobe for the relaxed Southern California sunshine when sharing her creative journey. Paige’s favorite fabrics are linen, silk, denim, and leather, and she loves empowering other creatives to try new substrates and explore new crafts.
