DIY: Longchamp Le Pliage Bag : fabric

I got some plaid fabric from a garage sale and I didn’t want to make a skirt out of it because that was a bit predictable. These longchamp bags seem to be all over the place, so I used the style as an inspiration for my own. The really key piece is the button, make sure you find one that’s really nice and brassy because it won’t look the same at all with a different button. Also, the one thing that would make this better would be leather straps, but I was in a hurry so I just used the black fabric I had at home. If the straps are a bit soft, take a piece of rope and shove it inside =) Learn how to do a loopstitch for the button hole here: www.youtube.com
