Japanese patchwork is incredibly popular, and needlewomen strive to make their own hands with various accessories, panels, bedspreads , blankets, etc. The technique of Japanese patchwork is quite complicated for beginners, so today we will consider a simple variant of sewing bags in this style.
Japanese patchwork bags - master class
To make such a bright handbag, we need the following materials:
- 20 squares measuring 8x8 cm in cloth with a red and white pattern;
- 2 strips of checkered cloth measuring 40x12 cm;
- 1 strip of plain cloth for obtachki size 80x10 cm;
- 2 pieces of 40x25 red cloth for the cusp;
- 2 pieces of 40x30 cm tissue in a cage for lining;
- 2 pieces of sealant 40x30 cm for the walls of the handbag;
- sealant for the bottom of 33.5x10 cm;
- cord, ribbon, braid and other ornaments;
- starch for stiffening, if the fabric is too soft.
Our MK on Japanese patchwork begins with the fact that we sew 2 strips of squares of 5 in each, we sew these strips and get the central part of the future bag. We put this patchwork on the sealant, receding 3 cm from the top, and sew it with a horizontal seam. We put the checkered fabric on the patchwork part, we weak them together and with the sealant. We press it down, and likewise make the second wall of the bag.
Side sections of the front and back workpieces are stitched together, resulting in a pipe. We grind the upper edge of the patchwork section with a plain strip of fabric. We wrap it inside and label it. Outside this strip of fabric should be 3 cm wide.

We have the body of the bag ready, and we begin to make pens. The length of them can be any - at your discretion. But the width of the handles is 2.5 cm. For the density of the handles, you can sew a strip of seal in them, and decorate the outer side with braid with patterns. Handles are attached from the inside of the bag - so it will be more accurate and without unnecessary seams on the outside of the bag.

The lining fabric is sewn horizontally, the upper piece of fabric will serve as a lock-curtain. We grind the side seams, press them, we turn the lining on the front side. In the "curtain" we insert a string to tighten its top.
It remains to sew the bottom. We cut it out to the specified dimensions, strengthen it with non-woven or sintepon, lay it and grind it to the bottom of the bag. We decorate the bag with braid, ribbons and any other details at your discretion.
