How I Made The Larger Pouch

I firstly, started sorting through my scraps to find pieces that were approximately the size of 1 1/2 inches wide and 5 inches in length.   I began to somewhat put the colours that could blend together, together.  Then ensured that they sized as close as possible.  Then sewed them together at the length 5 inches at 1/4 inch seam allowances.   I did that until it reached approximately 14 inches in width   Then I straighted up the width top and bottom, as well as the sides left and right.  It was then time to focus on making the pouch.  So I cut out two pieces of fabric the same size to be the lining of the pouch.   Optional you can arrange to use fusible batting or just batting on the sewn patchwork, iron on and then quilt.  Arranged for a zipper to fit the pouch.  Placed the zipper facedown to the top of the patchwork that has been fused by either pinning or clipping.  Baste.  Attach 1 piece of the lining on top of the zipper.  Baste.  Stitch with a 1/4 inch seam along zipper using a zipper foot.  Then open on top to top stitch.  Repeat on the other side.  Once Zipper is done.  Place both pieces right sides together.  Arrange at the bottom corners to cut out 1 inch squares on both sides.  Do the same with the lining.    Make sure to note that zipper should remain open.  With right sides together stitch along each side at a 1/4 inch seam as well as on the bottom.  Do the same with the lining, but leave about a 2 - 3 inch opening for turning inside out later.  Where there is an opening of the 1 inch squares, open them to match the seams.  Stitch straight along each corner with a 1 inch seam.  Do lining the same.  Press all seam.  Turn pouch inside out through the lining hole and open zipper.   Shape and press.

It is amazing what a few scraps of fabric can produce, which would normally ended up in waste or the trash bin. 🎉

Sewing & Quilting: Handmade Laptop & Tablet Bags

There’s something extra special about creating your own fabric accessories – not only do they protect your devices, but they also let you carry a little piece of handmade cheer wherever you go. ✂️💜

Recently, I stitched up these padded laptop and tablet bags using a bright and fun Easter egg print fabric. The cheerful design makes them perfect for springtime, and the quilted padding keeps the devices safe and snug.

What You’ll Need

• Cotton fabric (your choice of print – seasonal, floral, or even plain for a classic look)

• Batting or fusible fleece for padding

• Lining fabric

• Sewing machine, thread, scissors, and pins

• Measuring tape

Step-by-Step

1. Measure your device – laptop or tablet – then add about 1 inch on each side for seam allowance and padding.

2. Cut your pieces – outer fabric, lining, and batting.

3. Quilt the outer fabric and batting together for sturdiness.

4. Sew the bag panels right sides together, leaving the top open.

5. Add the lining – stitch around and turn inside out.

6. Finish the top edge neatly by folding over and topstitching.

And just like that, you’ve got a custom, quilted laptop or tablet bag! 🎉

Variations

• Add a button or Velcro closure for extra security.

• Sew in a pocket for cords or pens.

• Choose different fabrics for the seasons (florals for summer, cozy plaids for winter).

Here are the two I made – one for a tablet, one for a laptop:

(Insert your photos here – the two standing in front of the sewing machine look especially nice!)

 Patchwork Quilted Tote Bag

Scraps of fabric cut up in pieces of approximately 3 inches by 3 inches of fabric and 3 inches by 2 inches of fabric.  Making in total about 56 squares of fabric.  This particular bag has approximately 40 3 inches by 3 inches and 16 3 inches by 2 inches.  

The squares are then stitched together at a 1/4 inch seam allowances matching accordingly.  Rolls made up of approximately 4 and 5 in a strip and the strips then stitched together.

Once sewed you should have 2 pieces of fabric of approximately 14 1/2 inches by 10 inches.  Cut out 2 pieces of batting to be attached to each piece of fabric.  Pin in place and quilt to your desired design.

Prepare lining of 14 1/2 inches by 10 inches.  Sew each side at 1/2 inch seam allowance, be sure to sure a little opening on one side for pulling the bag out.   Stitch bottom as well as 1/2 inch seam allowance.  

Prepare the 2 fabric pieces too with stitching each side at 1/2 seam allowance and the bottom at 1/2 inch seam allowance.

With a ruler on the Fabric Pieces and the lining draw a 2 inch square in each corner and cut out.  This will help form the boxing of the bag.  Box corners by bringing together and stitch.

Take lining and bag with the rights sides together, arrange straps in place and stitch the top 1/2 inch around the top.   

Insert your hand inside the bag to locate the side with the hole left open and not sewed up.  Pull the bag through the hole accordingly and form the bag.  Press and top stitch.

Position velcro strips and snaps.

Serge

Overlock

Handmade Tote Bags: Bringing Simplicity 5535 "B" to Life

I recently finished sewing these beautiful tote bags inspired by the Simplicity 5535 pattern, version "B." I wanted to share the process and the final results because I’m really happy with how they turned out!

Choosing the Fabric

I opted for a striking combination of colorful gradient fabrics, mixing soft pinks, purples, and blues to give the bags a vibrant yet harmonious look. The contrast between the solid deep purple and the multi-hued gradient fabric really adds visual interest.

The Pattern: Simplicity 5535 "B"

This pattern is fantastic for creating versatile tote bags with large exterior pockets. The "B" variation offers a practical and stylish design, perfect for everyday use. The bag has both a roomy main compartment and a handy front pocket — great for organizing essentials.

Construction Highlights

• Handles and Straps: The sturdy straps are well-reinforced with neat square stitching for added durability.
• Exterior Pocket: The large front pocket in the matching gradient fabric gives a fun, playful twist and extra space.
• Colors and Style: I love how the gradient fabric’s color flow changes depending on which part of the bag you look at, especially with the two bags made in different dominant colors (one purple-focused, the other pink-focused).

Final Thoughts

Making these bags was a rewarding experience. The Simplicity 5535 "B" pattern is beginner-friendly yet produces professional-looking results. Whether for personal use or gifting, these tote bags are an excellent sewing project.

If you're thinking of trying your hand at making your own tote, I highly recommend this pattern and using vibrant fabrics to make your creations pop!
