Now double fold over the top edge of
the main piece of fabric so it overlaps the printed piece and pin as shown
below this making the top border of the bag.

course with out the printed panel this time,

Next
the handles
Place the handle in position on the
inside of bag as shown in diagram below,
Pin in place, repeat this on the
both bag side pieces.
________________________________
Now over you go to the
sewing machine
take your two bag
sides with the handles pined on,
Turn your bag side panel over so the
good side is facing upwards, see picture below.
Now sew the first line of stitching,
this will follow the lower edge of your top fold on the bag front. it will
also sew through the handle
Now turn the bag
side over as shown below
Now stitch along
the top of the bag, securing the handle as you go. see below
It
should look something like the picture below when you have finished
___________________________________
Assembling the Bag
take your two
sides & place them on a table good side up,
Then put them
together good side facing inward & pin as below
______________________________
Over you go
to the sewing machine again LOL don't tread on any pins!
Stitch
the two panels together around two sides & bottom,
I did this with an overlocker/Serger
as it has a neater finish but the ordinary sewing machine will do fine, tidy
any lose ends of thread,
Turn in the right way
You should have A nice
Little tote bag
Hope you managed
to follow my instructions,
This bag can be
made and used with an iron on transfer just as easy, or even a stitched
front.
