Essential Bag Making Tools - Klum House

Essential Bag Making Tools

What do you need to have in your toolbox to become a bag maker? In this session, Ellie will share all of her favorite bag making tools and supplies for beginning bag makers. She’ll explain why you need each of them, show you how they work, and help you understand when it’s okay to bootstrap something at home vs. when you really need to invest in the right tool for the right job.

This is a recording of a live talk that took place on Zoom on Wednesday, July 22, 2020. This session is all about essential bag making tools! Ellie will share suggestions for buying your first sewing machine, selecting the right needle and thread, our favorite cutting and marking tools, basic tools for working with leather and hardware, and more.

Pay if Forward

This event was free of charge, but we encourage non-Black folks who are able to “pay it forward” with a donation to the Loveland Foundation.

About Lunchtime Live

Lunchtime Live is a series of weekly conversations with Klum House founder Ellie Lum to discuss our favorite subject (bag making!) and answer questions from our maker community. These sessions are free of charge and open to everyone. The idea for this series sprouted out of our desire to create new forms of learning and togetherness during this time of crisis and uncertainty. We envision this series as a container for sharing skills and ideas, gathering confidence and inspiration, and celebrating our shared love of making. View all past and upcoming live events here.
