the M bag

I completed the body of the M bag today. I sewed the liner pieces to the outside pieces, instead of sewing the liner separately from the outer. This meant I had to bind all the seams with grosgrain ribbon, which was tough in the spots that there was upwards of 8-9 layers, as I do not use any binding feet on my walking foot machine.
Here are some photos of the inside. Although my bags are made out of rubber, I still feel that the insides should be beautiful and professional.

I couldn't sew over the zipper and 6 layers, I had to burn the edges of the zipper and grosgrain ribbon, and use some seam glue so the zipper and lining material wouldn't fray.


These were taken on my phone, tomorrow I will take some product shots in good lighting conditions.
