The Upcycled Ruby Jacket Bag – Free Sewing Tutorial

Upcycled Jacket Bag - Free Sewing Tutorial by Vicky Myers Creations

You must go see how Vicky Myers sews this sweet ruby-red purse together using a recycled jacket. Sewing and constructing this bag is easier than it looks because you already have so much of the more complicated accent sewing completed already.  The sleeves are re-used to make the handles and straps, and the body of the jacket makes the bag.  I love what Vicky came up with, I love the fabric, and the color!  If you are eco-conscious and love to save money, this is the sewing project for you.  Sew and sell one-of-a-kind bags too!
