French Seamed Travel Shoe Bag

旅行荷物用の靴袋を作りました。防水加工の布なんだけど、非常にほつれやすい布なので袋縫いで仕上げました。(ロックミシンに糸を通すのが面倒くさかったというのもある)
巾着袋なんて簡単だと思うけど、8つもまとめて作ったら、それも袋縫いで作ったら縫い目が倍だから結構時間かかったわ。
袋縫いで巾着の紐を通すところをどうやって縫うのかわからなくて調べるのにも時間がかかった。





I made travel shoe bags. Lame? It's called practicality. Also for reducing fabric stash for our impending move.

The fabric is Ripstop so that you can put wet shoes in it if needed and still pack it in your suitcase when you are traveling. This particular Ripstop is, however, very prone to raveling, so I sewed the bag with French seams.

I actually made 8 of these bags. It was a lot of French seams.

Again, you would think that a drawstring bag is so easy an ape can sew it, but I had to spend a couple of hours searching for tutorials to make a bag with French seam because I did not know the best way to handle the French seam on the side as well as the drawstring cord channel opening. Anyway, I wrote down the instruction! Hopefully the instruction and the drawing will make sense when I make it again in the future.
