DIY Small Tote Bag in 5 minutes

[@maryjager1757]

5 minutes CAN be done but not on the first bag. The first bag you are finding and prepping fabric, watching instructions over and over to get measurements, and watching how it is sewn. Also ripping off handles after I sewed to wrong side of fabric. Grrrrrr. 2nd time, After you have fabric ready to go, you can whip up this baby in 5 minutes easy!! Thanks for this tutorial!

[@AePooiM]

Wow, that's great, you can make it in 5 minutes. 👍👍 😘 🥰

[@ЛюдмилаШевкунова-ф7т]

Спасибо.Доступно, понятно и легко.

[@claragarcia4253]

Está muy bonita y práctica para hacer gracias gracias gracias por compartir 😘

[@ead9726]

That sounds like me 😳sewing the handles on back to front, when it was face mask wearing during the pandemic, I did that 🤦‍♀️errrrr a couple of times when making them 🤔🤦‍♀️🤦‍♀️. I watch these tutorials a few times to get the hang (hopefully) of the instructions, then have a go. 👍Also I like the fact it is straight on with the instructions and not a long chat at the beginning, I usually give up on those, but this tutorial is 👍✔️

[@Thatsinteresting363]

A) The video that shows you how to make it is 3.5 mins, which is a 1.5 minute bonus. B) you learn it’s lined in the video (and why you should watch it to see if you like it) C) it says “small tote” in the title. D) I hate dumb comments left by equally agitating people.

[@tlsnana9539]

I don’t know what I appreciate most. . . That your finished products always look perfect and I can make it, that you show both inches and centimeters, that you have pleasant music accompaniment, or that you can fit such a brilliant project into 3-1/2 minutes. Thank you for your generosity.

[@AePooiM]

You're welcome! ❤️ So happy to hear that.

[@dmbmeister0]

This tote pattern is a winner. I thought mine was easy and fast. This one is much better. Plus, anyone who sews can think of different ways to make it different sizes and purses. Making it small without straps, a button and a loop can be put on top to make it a purse. Making is quite small, it can be a gift bag for jewelry, etc. The variety is endless. Thanks so much.

[@AePooiM]

🙏 ❤️🥰

[@ummik8336]

Im new to sewing and just finished this project. Im soo happy with it! For straps I used selfmade straps from the lining so the lining and the straps match 🤗. For the outer fabric I used canvas and the lining im not sure, some army green nonstretch fabric. Thank you so much for the videos, they are very very straight forward and clear in instruction. I basicly tapped pause inbetween all the steps. I dont like the "talking trough all the steps" videos anyways. Love from The Netherlands 😘

[@mrsducky3428]

May I ask, how long did it take to assemble? Thank you!

[@lreyn2130]

You make that look really easy. I have some denim from some jeans I cut odd. I am going to give this a try. Thank you for the inspiration.

[@Dashzap]

Very cute. Took me two hours as a beginner: picking materials, making straps from fabric, adding interfacing. I love the result.

l have a little additional feature, I like to add a small pocket into the hole used to turn bag right side out. I use a baby sock as my pocket, it holds cash, key, or credit card. I also add a simple square flat pocket on the outside & inside. Thank you for great instructionals I have adopted this as a favorite ❤😊

[@momlikesmemore]

Very cute and clever! It has inspired me as a beginner to try it. Thank you!

[@gravedigger447]

It's a very cute bag! Cutting out the fabric and lining and straps took 20 minutes 😂. Maybe I'm just very slow, but I think you're saying that it takes only 5 minutes to boost confidence in your viewers. That's very kind of you, but from my perspective this is not necessary. I don't mind working an hour on one of your lovely projects. Greetings from New Zealand 🇳🇿

[@denasullivan4134]

It only took me about 5 minutes to sew! As with any job, the prep work is what takes the time. In this case, the measuring and cutting is the prep work….

[@solojuegos4381]

[@isabellahodge4162]

I'm a sewer of 50+ years of practice, not pro but dedicated amateur. I've made way more complicated bags than this. I still think it would take me about 20 minutes to make this though, not including cutting the fabric out accurately. Also, so much of getting any bah to look nice is to press as you go, which is not shown here at all. Looks fun though, I might make a few from scrap fabric as gift bags. Also a nice project for beginners.

This is a beautiful project. I look forward to making this Tote Bag. What kind of fabric would you suggest?

[@suzang1213]

I suggest a classic linen fabric in a neutral classic colour. This tote is great but the color and fabric will make the difference.

[@Mary-cg1sl]

I think canvas for the outside. It's more durable.

Looks cool but definitely not 5 mins

It would take 1 hr. to do all that including the cutting, not 5 minutes. Just saying.

3.29 minutes for the video. But the creator has done these steps many times. When making work like this, the time to make per handbag gets fewer and fewer minutes to complete.

Quick question…do you - me, need to change the measurements for the corner folds if you decide to make a slightly bigger tote? Thank you

[@beefamily2296]

Only if you want the bottom to be wider.

Normally, if the bag is enlarged, the bottom of the bag should be increased too. Otherwise, the shape of the bag will change.

I think you have 2 options: 1) make it as is and enjoy a different sized bag, or 2) sew some interesting contrasting fabric to make it the suggested size. Both ways should be nice.
