Sewing with Vinyl.

A friend got me some cheap vinyl to try out making bags with.  I have seen people show off their vinyl bags on facebook and they look amazing.  So i thought I would give it a go.

 Here is my swoon bag Evelyn for one of my sister-in-laws.

From This

 To This

When sewing the vinyl i had to use baking paper because the vinyl would stick to the foot and not move.  After some research people have suggested using a roller foot, which I didn't have, or scotch tape on the bottom of foot.  Again I had none - so baking paper it was. 


It comes of nice and easy just rip one side of stitching and then the other side comes away with no problems.



The finished product is   ...............




There is a zipper pocket inside too. 

I will have to say I am pretty happy with the final results.  Very happy with my first attempt at vinyl.
