  • Hi lovely people!
    Welcome back to another video, which must be my favourite one so far! In this video I show you how to save over £2220 :D! I recreated this beautiful Dior Book Tote for £22 instead of the hefty price of £2250!
    I am showing you each and every step in the video, however just know that the fabric I used was upholstery fabric, which has got a lot of structure to it. I just used google to search for pink and beige upholstery fabric and found this lovely fabric which I thought was a very good match! Let me know if you want more information on that!
    I hope you enjoy this video! It was a very easy DIY and I ABSOLUTELY LOVEEEEE the outcome! It for sure is my favourite bag now.

    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!...

      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 😀

    What is that white material you sawed into the fabric ? You called it interface ?? Is that necessary? What exactly is it ?

    • @recreatefulchannel
      @recreatefulchannel  3 роки тому +1

      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 :)

      @@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?

      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 :)
