\"Tote<\/p>\n

Tote bags are a great beginner sewing project, but sometimes you need a little bit more of a specialized bag. These DIY bag tutorials don’t have a tote in the bunch! You can raid your fabric stash or hit the thrift store for linens to make any of these bags on the cheap.<\/p>\n

1. Travel Duffel<\/a><\/strong> – This is a weekend bag tutorial from Sew Can Do, and I love the vibrant colors that she chose!<\/p>\n

2. Yoga Mat Bag<\/a><\/strong> – Sewaholic’s drawstring yoga mat bag makes toting your mat to yoga class a lot less clumsy.<\/p>\n

3. Mason Jar Bag<\/a><\/strong> – Keep your cold things cold with this free tutorial from Sew Mama Sew.<\/p>\n

4. Camera Carrier<\/a><\/strong> – You can use this camera carrier from How Joyful as-is or as an insert to turn your favorite bag into an instant camera bag.<\/p>\n

5. Foxy Purse<\/a><\/strong> – Mark Montano has a cute tute for a zippered fox clutch.<\/p>\n

<\/div>\n

6. Carrie Purse<\/strong> – Turn a thrifted purse into a paint-splattered statement piece with this video tutorial from Pretty in Pigment!<\/p>\n

7. No-Sew Clutch<\/a><\/strong> – Liquid Stitch is the secret to Kanelstrand’s super cute DIY clutch tutorial.<\/p>\n

8. Free Messenger Bag Pattern<\/a><\/strong> – No Time to Sew shares her template for making this Tumbuk2-inspired messenger bag.<\/p>\n

9. Rectangular Backpacks<\/a><\/strong> – Petit a Petit made this bag for her kids, but I think it would be great for grownups, too. And I love that it has handles, in case your shoulders are tired of toting your backpack.<\/p>\n

10. Diaper Bag<\/a><\/strong> – Pretty much any bag with pockets works as a diaper bag, but what I love about this one from Melissa Mortenson is the divider. What a great way to keep things organized!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
