Converting a jumpsuit into an eco bag – Clothes Upcycling

By letter2self on May 9, 2023



In this video I’ll show you how I made an eco bag from the top of a jumpsuit. In a previous video I made a scarf from the legs of the jumpsuit – https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_Y9vSk3kp1M

The decision to make an eco bag was almost made for me, because when I looked at the top it already resembled the kind of eco bags I prefer, the main difference is that I usually make this model of eco bag with longer straps so I can carry them on my shoulder.

I made a couple of mistakes when doing it, I forgot to attach the pocket when I was applying the bias on the back of the top so I had to attach it after. I also put the small hanging strap on the wrong side. I noticed the mistakes and was able to correct them, so the video mentions that.
