She has a fantastic way of explaining step by step instructions on her video, so if you\u2019re interested, make sure to check it out!<\/p>\n<p>You\u2019ll need to buy faux leather fabric and matching thread for this purse design. You\u2019ll also need a rotary cutter and board, ruler, measuring tape, scissors, pins, pen and paper to make the pattern and a sewing machine.<\/p>\n<ol>\n<li>Start by measuring out the pattern, which can be found via her tumblr, <a href=\"http:\/\/todiyforjs.tumblr.com\/image\/133941363504\">here<\/a>. The purse is 10 inches across, and make sure to read her instructions for the full details.<\/li>\n<li>Next, pin the template to the fabric and cut it out.<\/li>\n<li>Remove the pins and then fold the fabric and pin again to prepare it for sewing. Use a scrap piece of fabric and test out different kinds of stitches. Once you decide which pattern you prefer, make stitches along the side edges of the fabric. The next phase will be creating the fringe.<\/li>\n<li>Use a straight edge and a rotary cutter to begin cutting several rectangles. Be patient and work carefully to make sure you have an equal amount of spacing with each fringe.<\/li>\n<li>Lay each row of fringe along the purse. For this tutorial, she made a small mistake which she mentions in the video, but it was easily remedied by hand stitching. She didn&#8217;t use any liner for this piece, but she highly recommends including it if you decide to make one for yourself.<\/li>\n<li>Use a lengthy piece of fabric to cut out four long rectangles to create your strap. Pin two rectangles together and sew using your sewing machine.<\/li>\n<li>Sew the material together to create your finished strap.<\/li>\n<li>Lastly, you can reinforce your stitches by going over each edge with your sewing machine again.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n<p>The end result looks totally amazing, featuring a boho-inspired design that works for everyday wear. It&#8217;s a perfect way to store all of your essentials while you&#8217;re on the go.<\/p>\n<p>Ready to get moving?
