How to Make a Storage Bag for Irregularly Shaped Items

You may have a chair, a folding bike or a piece of equipment that’s an odd shape that doesn’t fit well inside a store-bought storage bag. In this video tutorial, we’re going to show you how to sew a custom-shaped storage bag that perfectly fits our irregularly shaped folding chair. You can apply the techniques taught in this video to any odd-shaped item you want to sew a padded storage bag for. Our storage bag features a handle for carrying and a webbing tab for hanging the bag. Plus, we’ll show you a new and clever way to sew a zipper plaque opening.
