DIY Dior Book Tote Bag - recreating the Dior Book Tote Bag - DIY Book Tote Bag
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
Hi lovely people!
Welcome back to another video, which must be my favourite one so far! In this video I show you how to save over £2220 :D! I recreated this beautiful Dior Book Tote for £22 instead of the hefty price of £2250!
I am showing you each and every step in the video, however just know that the fabric I used was upholstery fabric, which has got a lot of structure to it. I just used google to search for pink and beige upholstery fabric and found this lovely fabric which I thought was a very good match! Let me know if you want more information on that!
I hope you enjoy this video! It was a very easy DIY and I ABSOLUTELY LOVEEEEE the outcome! It for sure is my favourite bag now.
Don't forget to like and subscribe - its totally free of charge and I will provide you with lots of DIY ideas every week!

I think by just cutting your interfacing a half inch or so shorter would alleviate a lot of the bulk in the seams but especially the corners. (I know this video is 2 years old, but just in case someone is going to use your pattern idea in the future.)

I just finished making my own Dior Book Tote Bag but I used another pattern...I wish I had found your video earlier, your way is so much easier to make...I will definitely make a few more for some members of my family using your technique!...

Hello 🤗 what material did you use for interfering?
@recreatefulchannel
2 ай бұрын
Just some standard interfacing :)
What is that white material you sawed into the fabric ? You called it interface ?? Is that necessary? What exactly is it ?
@recreatefulchannel
3 жыл бұрын
Hi Andrea :) It's called interfacing - it's similar to canvas paper and can be ironed onto your fabric to give it more structure and thickness. It is not necessary as such, I just felt like it gave my bag the structure it needed as otherwise it would have looked more like a jute bag - so it's entirely up to you :) You could also just use more layers of fabric instead, however interfacing is cheaper and can be used for lots of different projects :)

Hi Arlene, your bag will be floppier because it doesn’t have the “backbone” of a nice stiff fabric like upholstery :) if you added a layer of buckram or other stuff fabric in between that would help a lot. (Edit: stuff->stiff)

As long as your bag is wide (the front and back of your bag + 2x the depth of the bag) as it has to fit all around it. And you have to add seam allowance of course

@@recreatefulchannel I think what she meant was, after the bag was sewn all the way around, there was a good amount you cut off. Was that on purpose? or there was an excess on the pattern?
