The Bag Making Bible


If you are thinking of venturing into making your own designer bags The Bag Making Bible is well worth checking into.  The book covers every element of asembling a fabric bag.  It has great sections on closures of various types and instruction on several kinds of pockets.  With each chapter a project is included. The book was first published in the U.K. and some terns were not translated into American English, for example the book refers to zip instead of zipper. I also found a few grammar errors, page 9 has "If you want a job doing well you have to do it yourself."  Oops. Nonetheless, I thought the book had great projects and is packed with useful tips.  I appreciated the tips on types of presser feet to purchase to make the bag making process easier.  I am all over easier.
