For crafting your next George S Wallace BagMaker accessory, consider using old clean clothes and fabric scraps like denim, cotton, polyester, old quilts, jeans, shirts, suits, or curtains, all of which bring character and durability. For the outer material, denim or heavy cotton from old jeans or shirts works beautifully, offering strength and a stylish, lived-in look. For the lining, soft cotton or polyester from old shirts or curtains ensures comfort and longevity inside the bag. Handles crafted from sturdy fabric scraps or repurposed suit material provide a strong, comfortable grip. Working with 8 1/2" x 8 1/2" squares, you’ll need two for the outer, two for the lining, and two for the handles, giving you a well-structured, handcrafted bag that’s both functional and uniquely yours.
