Ever wondered why your finished bag looks less structured than the one in the pattern photo?

Interfacing and stabilizer can completely change how a fabric behaves and how much shape and structure the finished bag has.

What’s your go-to for adding structure?

A tiny detail that can make a bag feel more finished while being functional keeping the base off the surface underneath.

Bag feet are easy to install and, in my opinion, make a big difference to the look and feel of a bag.

Do you like small dainty ones or large statement feet? Either way, we have you covered- https://kiwibagineers.co.nz

Ever had a rivet squash or bend when you set it?

Before blaming the rivet, check the post length.

A good rule is to choose one that’s only a couple of millimetres longer than all the layers you’re joining. Too short and it may not grip properly. Too long and it can buckle when you set it.

You can set rivets by hand or use a rivet press like the KAM press, otherwise known as the Green Machine.

Sometimes it really is just about finding the right rivet for the job.
Save this one for the next time your rivets aren’t behaving!

A zipper doesn’t have to disappear into your bag.

Match it to your fabric, add a pop of colour or go all out and make it part of the design. This rainbow zipper was made for standing out 🌈

Do you usually match your zipper or make it a feature? No matter which, we have you covered 😀
