Intro to Handbag Construction

Master the intersection of relaxed silhouettes and functional design by constructing a custom slouch bag. This hands-on session will dive into the pattern making, construction, and finishing of a boutique-quality accessory.
This workshop is for intermediate sewists who have basic machine and pattern-making confidence and are ready to dive into accessory construction and professional-grade assembly.
Participants will learn how to construct a slouch bag, execute professional assembly, and master finishing techniques including inset linings, facings, and hardware closures.
Participants will walk away with a custom, high-fashion slouch bag and the technical expertise to replicate professional accessory designs for their own handmade wardrobe.
