Fabric Bags

A simple sling bag with zipper

 I have a thing about sewing bags. It's very time consuming but the outcome is worth it. I tried sewing this sling bag. It's a simple pattern that i created, with a zipper top. I made pockets inside the bag, easy to put my handphone and stuff. The front pocket is also convenient for my notes and coins when I'm on the go.

Shoulder bag with ribbon

Here's another round shoulder bag i made from recycling my unused skirt. I added a ribbon for an easy-tie to complete. I find it quite difficult to sew the bottom of the bag since it's round and I had to pleat the fabrics to have a 'puffy' finish. Any advice?
