Dialogue: 0,0:00:29.47,0:00:36.43,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,coin purses, and you can also find them for\Nworryingly cheap. Like I found these purses
Dialogue: 0,0:00:36.43,0:00:43.30,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,on ebay for 93 cents, and that includes free\Nshipping.... Now when something is this cheap,

Dialogue: 0,0:00:48.48,0:00:51.11,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,paid. Besides, it looked like something that\Nwould be a really fun challenge to try and

Dialogue: 0,0:00:53.21,0:00:57.37,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So the first thing that I needed to do was\Nto find an image of an animal's face. I went
Dialogue: 0,0:00:57.37,0:01:01.44,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,onto a royalty-free image website and I typed\Nin “puppy”. Sorry cat people, but I wanted
Dialogue: 0,0:01:01.44,0:01:05.08,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,to make a dog face bag instead. Now, the best\Ntype of image for this project will be an

Dialogue: 0,0:02:03.31,0:02:07.39,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Now when you’re printing your image, make\Nsure that you select the highest quality printing

Dialogue: 0,0:02:11.03,0:02:15.84,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Then I also decided that the head needed to\Nbe a bit bigger anyway, so I printed out a

Dialogue: 0,0:02:21.28,0:02:26.16,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,the head and the ear pieces. And then, I peeled\Nthe backing paper off the photo transfers.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:26.16,0:02:31.16,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Then, with this cotton linen material that\NI thrifted, I cut out pieces of fabric that

Dialogue: 0,0:02:39.49,0:02:44.17,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Then, I used some fabric scissors to cut the\Nfabric to the same shape as the images, leaving

Dialogue: 0,0:02:48.57,0:02:55.21,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Then, I worked out all the different pieces\Nthat I was going to need for my bag.
Dialogue: 0,0:02:55.21,0:03:01.94,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So, for the ears, I cut out two more pieces\Nof black linen that were identical in shape

Dialogue: 0,0:03:03.53,0:03:07.61,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Then, I placed each ear and it’s identical\Nback piece right-sides together, and then

Dialogue: 0,0:03:30.15,0:03:34.83,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I sewed the two together, wrong sides together,\Nlike this, leaving a gap down the bottom.

Dialogue: 0,0:03:42.53,0:03:46.87,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,The next step is attaching the ears, which\NI attached to the front piece like THIS. I

Dialogue: 0,0:03:49.87,0:03:51.06,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,all make sense at the end.
Dialogue: 0,0:03:51.06,0:03:57.36,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,I also cut off the excess fabric at the ends\Nof the ears. Now in the next few steps, these

Dialogue: 0,0:04:12.01,0:04:16.09,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,wouldn’t pierce through the photo transfer\Nwith pins. Making sure first that the strap
Dialogue: 0,0:04:16.09,0:04:19.46,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,was not twisted, I sewed it onto the front\Nof the bag like this.

Dialogue: 0,0:04:46.00,0:04:50.62,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,SO, in order to make my bag I am going to\Nneed my outer front piece, an outer back piece,

Dialogue: 0,0:04:58.85,0:05:02.38,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,your photo transfer, but unfortunately I didn’t\Nhave any black zippers that were long enough
Dialogue: 0,0:05:02.38,0:05:05.16,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,so I had to use this thrifted cream-coloured\None instead.
Dialogue: 0,0:05:05.16,0:05:09.37,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Now, the first step of making a simple bag\Nlike this is to attach the front pieces to the zipper.
Dialogue: 0,0:05:10.86,0:05:15.16,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,So first, lay down the lining piece and then\NI attached the zipper, with the zipper facing UP,

Dialogue: 0,0:05:16.71,0:05:20.96,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Now it helps here if you use a zipper foot\Non your sewing machine, and you can also unzip
Dialogue: 0,0:05:20.96,0:05:24.43,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,the zipper because that will make sewing around\Nthe curve a little bit easier.
Dialogue: 0,0:05:24.43,0:05:28.04,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,As you can see, my zipper is a little bit\Nlonger than I needed it to be, so I just let
Dialogue: 0,0:05:28.04,0:05:32.02,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,it go off the edges like this. As long as\Nyou leave the zip part in the middle, this
Dialogue: 0,0:05:32.02,0:05:36.36,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,will work fine. Next, it was time for me to\Nattach the front piece, which I placed right-side
Dialogue: 0,0:05:36.36,0:05:40.80,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,down on top of the zipper, and then I sewed\Nit on like this. This is probably the most
Dialogue: 0,0:05:40.80,0:05:47.93,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,difficult part to sew together, so I unzipped\Nthe zipper and I went really slowly.
Dialogue: 0,0:05:47.93,0:05:51.96,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Once that was all sewn together I flipped\Nthe lining over to the other side, so that
Dialogue: 0,0:05:51.96,0:05:56.70,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,the zipper was free. The next step is to essentially\Ndo the same thing again – I placed the lining
Dialogue: 0,0:05:56.70,0:06:00.83,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,down, then I put the zipper on right side\Nup, and I sewed them together like this. Next
Dialogue: 0,0:06:00.83,0:06:06.39,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,comes the outer back piece, which is placed\Nright sides down, and then sewn on like this.
Dialogue: 0,0:06:06.39,0:06:13.52,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Then, again, I flipped the lining on the back\Npiece around to the other side.

Dialogue: 0,0:06:17.48,0:06:21.43,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Now the next thing that I did was to place\Nthe front and back outer pieces right sides
Dialogue: 0,0:06:21.43,0:06:26.61,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,together, move the lining UP and out of the\Nway, and then I sewed the front and back outer

Dialogue: 0,0:06:30.62,0:06:35.46,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Then, I pulled the lining UP and above the\Nbag as far as I could – and as you can see,
Dialogue: 0,0:06:35.46,0:06:39.48,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,this is rather difficult to do on a circular-shaped\Npurse – and then I sewed the lining pieces
Dialogue: 0,0:06:39.48,0:06:43.00,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,together like THIS, with a large gap in the\Nmiddle.
Dialogue: 0,0:06:43.00,0:06:48.45,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,Then through that hole in the lining, I pulled\Neverything the right way around. And, from
Dialogue: 0,0:06:48.45,0:06:53.50,Default,,0000,0000,0000,,what looked like a big old mess just a moment\Nago, I got something which actually looked
