Belmont - Spruce Custom Bag Maker Kit
Two projects in one! A convertible bag that tucks away inside a matching zipper pouch. This kit includes all of the ingredients you need to make this bag.
This durable, all-fabric bag converts from tote to backpack and can be tucked away inside the matching zipper pouch for easy carrying. It features convertible fabric straps, a two-compartment exterior pocket, French seams, extra-strong stitches for durability, and boxed corners for plenty of carrying capacity.
This kit includes all of the waxed canvas you need*, a paper pattern template for cutting your fabric pieces, an 8" brass zipper with a leather pull and rivet, two spools of matching thread, and access to the full PDF pattern. Option to add the online class (at 50% off!), essential tools, and paper instructions booklet.
*Note: Fabric pieces are not pre-cut. (You'll have some extra waxed canvas that can be used to make more zipper pouches, if you'd like!)

Our Materials
Our Materials
Waxed Canvas
A densely-woven cotton fabric that's saturated with wax, giving it protection against the elements. It shows scuffs and creases that blend into a weathered patina. *fabric colors vary in weight from 10-12oz
Leather
Sourced from Oregon and a Pennsylvania tannery, and hand-selected for quality. Our hides are cut into straps with a hydraulic press to ensure precision and consistency.
Hardware
Hardware takes a bag from looking homemade to professional—and it's not hard to do! Using basic tools, you can set rivets & more. All our hardware is real metal and built to last.
