Assembly Instructions
Prepare the Main Body
Begin by laying the main body piece flat on your work surface. Ensure all ends are woven in securely. This will serve as the foundation for your elegant handbag.
Attach the Bottom Panel
Using matching cream yarn, carefully sew the bottom panel to the main body. Work with small, even stitches to ensure a professional finish. The bottom should align perfectly with the main body's width.
Sew the Side Panels
Attach both side panels to create the bag's dimensional structure. Pin the pieces in place first, then sew using a mattress stitch for invisible seams. Work slowly to maintain the bag's elegant shape.
Install the Magnetic Closure
Carefully mark the center point of the bag opening and install the magnetic snap closure. This will give your handbag a professional, functional closure that adds to its luxury appeal.
Attach the Handles
Position the gold handles symmetrically on the bag. Measure 4cm from each edge and mark the placement. Sew the handles securely, reinforcing the attachment points with multiple passes of thread.
Add Decorative Trim
Sew the decorative gold trim around the bag opening for an elegant finishing touch. This detail elevates the bag from simple to sophisticated, giving it that luxury boutique appearance.
Final Shaping and Finishing
Gently stuff the bag with a small amount of fiberfill to give it structure and shape. Steam lightly if needed to set the form. Your Élégance handbag is now ready to make a statement!
