REBAG

For my bag, at first, I wanted to make a bag that is really big and stylish, which is inspired by the big Chanel bag. But, I could not find anything that would bend like how I would want to, so I just decided to make a normal, simple bag. I first started with a bunch of plastic bags from my form, a pair of scissors, iron, needles, and thread. At first, I cut the bag like I was instructed to, and where we would iron the bags together so they would make a “fabric” type of texture, where then I sewed it together with hand. I was supposed to use a sewing machine, but I thought that it would mean more if I just hand sewed it. I started with 5 flat pieces of plastic fabric, and 2 triangles which are gonna used for the handles. To make sure that I did not waste all of the plastic bags, I stuffed the handles with the leftover pieces and made it into a sturdy handle. The hardest part for me was sewing the bag together, as I had little experience to hand sewing, so this was a lesson I learned from the process.
