I think by just cutting your interfacing a half inch or so shorter would alleviate a lot of the bulk in the seams but especially the corners. (I know this video is 2 years old, but just in case someone is going to use your pattern idea in the future.)
I just finished making my own Dior Book Tote Bag but I used another pattern...I wish I had found your video earlier, your way is so much easier to make...I will definitely make a few more for some members of my family using your technique!...
Definitely picking up some techniques from this! I wanted to make a structured dog bag like the book tote but with curved side opening to allow her head to peak out. Still need to figure that part out lol
I am so glad to hear that 😍 these side of things are usually the easier to adjust once you started sewing and constructing it, it requires less brain qymnastics that way as you see it in front of you 😀
Great job ! Very beautiful! But i would suggest the fabric for the handles be cut on the bias if u have enough fabric so there are not so many wrinkles on the straps / handles.
Fantastic job! I wish I could make a bag like that! I think I might give it a try. I am dying to recreate a Marc and Graham Slouch bag, but I have trouble with grocery totes lol.
I got this for a person item for my little one on a vacation it was a perfect size it held all of her stuff and my breastfeeding supplies for the plane!
Hi Arlene, your bag will be floppier because it doesn’t have the “backbone” of a nice stiff fabric like upholstery :) if you added a layer of buckram or other stuff fabric in between that would help a lot. (Edit: stuff->stiff)
Hi! Thank you for this video!! I would like to know if you add 2cm on each side? For example on the length of your pattern it is 108cm, so with the 2cm it will be 118cm?, 51,5cm wide? And 40,5cm for depth?
Hey - thank you so much! :) I don't have a pattern that I could share, but I basically only created rectangles in the measurements of the original bag :) I used upholstery fabric so that it would have more structure and texture than normal fabric :)
Hi Andrea :) It's called interfacing - it's similar to canvas paper and can be ironed onto your fabric to give it more structure and thickness. It is not necessary as such, I just felt like it gave my bag the structure it needed as otherwise it would have looked more like a jute bag - so it's entirely up to you :) You could also just use more layers of fabric instead, however interfacing is cheaper and can be used for lots of different projects :)
I currently don't, as I simply wouldn't know how to create and share them with you. However, it's definitely something I would love to do in the future ❤️
Thank you so much! ❤️ Yes I only ordered one meter but is was quite wide so you definitely need more than 1x1 m. I think mine was 1.5x1m or something like that ❤️
As long as your bag is wide (the front and back of your bag + 2x the depth of the bag) as it has to fit all around it. And you have to add seam allowance of course
@@recreatefulchannel I think what she meant was, after the bag was sewn all the way around, there was a good amount you cut off. Was that on purpose? or there was an excess on the pattern? (Amazing video by the way! I'm going to try this one. I don't have nice upholstery fabric like the one you used, but I'm going for a box-y type tote. Thank you for this :) )
Ahh I see! Yes, so that was basically excess seam allowance :) I always cut my patterns quite generously as I am afraid it could end up too small. And I added 2 cm per side which was twice the amount I actually needed :) Thank you so much! I'd love to see your result! 😍
Hi, that video is amazing! Thank you as I was looking for a video like this to try to reproduce that bag! (you are amazing!) May I ask about the 2cm? Is it that for part? Is it the size of the bag plus cm2 on one side and the other? Sorry, I just don't want to make mistakes. Thank you. xx
Hi! I am glad you like it😍 Yes, the 2 cm was seam allowance, so just make sure to add that to the pattern so the bag doesn't become smaller with every seam :)❤️
Hello !! Could you tell me the measurements of the bag handles in a comment. PS: I'm Spanish and I can't understand the number of the handle measurements specifically. The rest I understood perfectly. Thank you so much !!
Thank you!! :) I have never diy'ed with leather or anything similar before so I am unsure if I can! :D I will do some research to see if I'd be able to! I will do my best and let you know! :)

OMG,I just started sewing and you're giving me hope...WOW,you're amazing. Question what type of glue is that?
🥺❤️ thank you so much! Its just generic glue for the glue gun, but something like E6000 will be good for this

Thank you so much! ❤️ Haha yea I would love one! :D
Nice !!
Thank you! ☺️
What is that white material you sawed into the fabric ? You called it interface ?? Is that necessary? What exactly is it ?
Hi Andrea :) It's called interfacing - it's similar to canvas paper and can be ironed onto your fabric to give it more structure and thickness.

Hi so you just search for interfacing for sewing?
Gibt es auch Maße für die Tasche?
Die sind im Video :)
I don’t speak a lot of english, but i understood all the video, Thank you for Share ❤️🇺🇾
Oh that's amazing, thank you so so much for your lovely comment! ❤️
Nice!
Thank you!! :)
Great tutorial - I hope I can recreate this successfully too
Thank you! I'm sure you can! ❤️
Do you make patterns? I really want to create this handbag.
I currently don't, as I simply wouldn't know how to create and share them with you. However, it's definitely something I would love to do in the future ❤️
wow nice!!!
Thank you!! :) 💖
hi, this video is amazing! thank you! just to be sure, for all the bag you used only 1m of upholstery fabric? thanks
Thank you so much! ❤️ Yes I only ordered one meter but is was quite wide so you definitely need more than 1x1 m. I think mine was 1.5x1m or something like that ❤️
How many yards of fabric did you use?
I will say this is really long ago but I believe I had just 1 m of 1.5 m wide fabric 🤍
@@recreatefulchannel ok thank you ❤️
Very nice
Thank you! :)
Can you pls make lady dior and share the tutorial vedio plzzz
I don't think I can 🥲
Superb. Thank you!
❤️ Thank you!
How long are the Stribs 5 cm and the lenth?
As long as your bag is wide (the front and back of your bag + 2x the depth of the bag) as it has to fit all around it. And you have to add seam allowance of course
Why did you have extra on side at the end?
What do you mean? Why I had extra fabric left over? xx
@@recreatefulchannel I think what she meant was, after the bag was sewn all the way around, there was a good amount you cut off. Was that on purpose? or there was an excess on the pattern?

@@lenny950 no problem! :)
Beautiful! Where is the fabric from?
Thank you! It's from justfabrics.co.uk :)
What type of interfacing did you use
I used the heaviest I could find :) It almost feels like canvas paper (which I believe you could also use instead!)
@@recreatefulchannel the bag is amazing !! Could you please tell us the exact reference or the link of the interfacing you use ? :)
@@clarabauchet8844 sure :) this is the link - I chose iron on - 2 metres - heavy

Hello !! Could you tell me the measurements of the bag handles in a comment.
PS: I'm Spanish and I can't understand the number of the handle measurements specifically. The rest I understood perfectly. Thank you so much !!
Hi :) No problem! - I made them 5 cm wide each and the length I just eyeballed but I measured it and it is 45 cm including seam allowance :) 💖💖
The bag is beautiful!! I wish i have your talent as well. If you sell or make by request, I will definitely buy 😊😍!
Aww thank you so much! ❤️ this is really sweet! Unfortunately I don't currently sell these! ❤️
Please give the measurements again for the pattern. Thank you
there is a graph of the pattern and measurements at 0:48 :)

for me it not recreating. its very different. i have the dior bag and looking at it its not the same.
Of course it won't be the same :) a recreation is not a duplicate and it would simply be wrong if I was able to create an exact replica :D x
@@recreatefulchannel your title is wrong its should be how to do a tote bag not a DIY Dior Tote bag. its far from DIOR look.
I appreciate your feedback :)
