Burlap Messenger Bag

It started as a tshirt, burlap and a belt. And ended up as a messenger bag!


I've never sewed anything with a lining (like a zipper pouch or a purse) so this was really new to me. 

Sew the tshirt closed, for the lining of the bag 
Fold the burlap over, and sew up the edges, leaving a flap for the bag flap. 
Sewing the lining inside the bag. 
Using a belt as a strap. Seam rip the buckle off the belt. 

I sewed the belt on the outside. I liked the loop of seeing it

My mom had wanted me to make her a burlap bag, so maybe I'll have to use this tutorial! It turned out really cute!
