Fabric Recommendations

This bag looks luxurious when made using faux leather or cork. Canvas is also a great option, but if using canvas for the exterior, you’ll need to skip the optional zip pocket facing and slip pocket trim as these need to be made from cork, vinyl or leather due to having raw edges.

Cork, vinyl or leather is also recommended for the buckle connectors and handles due to the holes used for the pin buckles. For the lining I like to use a quilting cotton or cotton canvas. These are especially good because we fuse the stabilisers to the lining of the bag, so a fabric that can be fused to is best.
