How to Add Side D-Ring Connectors to Any Pouch - Turn a Pouch Into a Crossbody Bag
Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль
In this video, I demonstrate how you can add side D-Ring Connectors to any pouch. This is a great way to turn your favorite pouch pattern into a Crossbody Bag. I drafted a simple pouch to show the technique. The video does not cover the construction of the pouch; just the technique for adding the side D-Ring Connectors. I used fabric from the Tula Pink Curiouser and Curiouser collection along with Wovenfuse 2 and Decovil Light. I hope that you find this technique useful and will give it a try. Thanks for watching!

Thanks Rosie. I have a bag to try it on now. It's finished & I was trying to think of a new technique to add the D rings. Thank you very much.

Thank you for another great tutorial! I bought my rivet press a few months ago and am kind of obsessed with putting rivets on all my bags. Now you've given me a whole new design idea. So cute and professional looking. Thanks again!

Congratulation on getting a rivet press. It is a game changer! Thanks for watching!
Wow Thank you Rosie. I’ve bee struggling with adding side strap connectors! You directions are so thorough!!
Your instructions were fantastic! Not sure I would say it's easy, but it turned out great! Thank you!
Rosie I am a huge fan of your patterns and video tutorials!!! I bought the Sarah's wristlet/cross body pattern as well as the saddle back pouch last night. I'm so excited to get started! I want to use this method to attach the cross body strap. thank you sooo much for all your wonderful patterns and tutorials! I think I have almost all of your patterns.
I should've watched this before I made my last crossbody bag this week! Thank you, alot better than handstitching the strap onto tweed, I love your tutorials 😍
Another winning idea!
Thank you, very nicely done.
You are a great teacher. So clear and helpful. Thanks!
I love your tutorials, Rosie. They are very direct and to the point, which I really appreciate-and I appreciate your cleverness, too. I had high hopes for this connector, and added it to a pouch style wristlet very similar to yours, and with a similar zipper construction. It looked great when finished, as I’d hoped, but once I put actual straps on, I was quite disappointed in how they functioned. The connectors “lift,” and, if one doesn’t get the connector on quite tightly, the connector actually pivots up. This makes sense in retrospect. I think if I try this again I would actually sew the connector down somehow (and I sure would like to see your ideas about that. On my current bag, I remedied the situation by tacking the D-ring at top and bottom where it was invisible below the connector. But I probably would not try this again without some sort of modification. I’d like to see a hack with a vertical connector. The challenge there is how to attach it if the seam allowance is small. My current bag called for a 1/4” seam, which made it hard to attach a vertical connector over it.
Thank you Rosie. Great alternative.

You certainly can do this technique with a finished pouch. I would just recommend using a hand tool to set the rivets because it would be difficult to get the rivet press into the area where the zipper tab and pull is. Thanks for watching!
Thanks so much, I was hoping to find a tutorial. It was great!
Excellent video! What a great idea! It looks so neat when finished! I am going to try this on my next project! Thanks so much!

Hello 👋
Thank you for the tutorial. I appreciate your teaching style, very detailed. Rosie, I’m returning to sewing after several years away. I would like to sew a large mesh beach bag with a detachable, private wallet or small crossbody for my daughter, and gift it on Mother’s Day. Do you have a tutorial which meets the criteria? 👍🏼🧵🪡
Beautiful. Exactly what I was looking for. Thanks! Now I want to do something similar on the front to slip in a sunglasses temple. I think I need a separate strap. I don't think it would fit easily in with the D ring. What do you think? Thanks again.
I love this idea. Would you recommend doing this method on a full sized handbag?
This is exactly the tutorial I was looking for !! Thank you so much for sharing !! but I’m wondering if this technique would work with fabric and not leather as you used ?
Love all your videos! Please tell me what size are your rivets?
Hi Rosie, thanks for this great tutorial!! I can't wait to try it! Have you ever tried setting the rivets through the outer and lining once the bag is complete?

You are welcome! Yes…you can definitely put the rivets through the lining and exterior. Thanks for watching!
Hi Rosie, thanks so much for the great video. Different subject than the tabs, is your faux red border overlayed on top of your main fabric or joined as a piece? I love this look. Is there a pattern for this pouch that you can share?
I love your videos. They’re always so clear and easy to follow. Thanks

Hi
Thank you again Rosie for another clear explanation of your methods. Almost all pouch patterns call for a No 3 zipper sewn in with a quarter inch seam allowance. Is there some some simple “fits all cases” adjustment if you prefer to use a No 5 or 4.5 zipper? When you say you “always set my zippers in three-quarters of an inch”, do you mean if you are using a No 5 zipper? Other adjustments I’ve read about say to increase the seam allowance from one quarter to three-eighths of an inch. Another pouch pattern designer says to enlarge her pattern on both sides by a quarter inch if you want to use a No 5 zipper. I’d love to know if there is a universal rule. I’ve searched and searched for one.

Hi, Gilda. If you look at the video at 1:56 and about the next 5 seconds Rosie is showing the top view of the pouch. There is a gap between the zipper and the side edge of the pouch of 3/4 of an inch. She is not referring to the seam allowance for sewing in the zipper. If your question is about the seam allowance for a #5 zipper, yes, you are correct, it is 3/8" rather than 1/4". Rosie, please correct me if I'm wrong!

Hi Judi
Has anybody tried this with heavy duty snaps instead of rivets? That way, I can remove the D ring if I don't want to use it for the crossbody. I think I might give it a try even though snaps scare me... Might as well get my money out of my press.
