Learn about how to make your own professional-quality bags at home, on a home sewing machine. Bag making is different from other types of sewing, like quilting and garments, in that we sew with heavy-duty fabric (waxed canvas is our favorite!) and work with leather and hardware, which requires learning how to use a few specialty tools. With some basic sewing skills and a sense of adventure, it's totally possible to create durable, professional-quality bags at home, without industrial equipment.
