    some creations

    Here are some stuff that i had made(long ago/recent), the stitching are all hand sewed as i dont have any machines to do it and i feel more control with my hands with hand sewing. I am not sure some of the names of the stitching i used as i just figured it out how i can sew and makes it works better. The fabric are made from 100% france linen and zippers are from RIRI. Below are the tools i used...



    One-piece garment bag

    The body itself are made from single piece of fabric, just folded half from a piece of fabric. I folded the raw fabric into the M6 zip tape and making an over-locking stiching so it will not be expose and did the same one the side seams. I boxed the two coners with a cross.








    One-piece Taped card holder

    Made out of same fabric, linen; i double looped the fabric and made some stitching to closed one end. Inner(straight) and outer(asymmetrical) seams are taped and a single metal button closure.

    Leather key chain

    Got this change purse recently, in came with a leather tag, so i reliased that i could do something with it and not wasting a piece of good leather so here it is.





    BBS garment bag +Modified

    Classic BBS garment bag, i find it quite hard to access as i need to remove the bag for use, so for practical reason i added a M8 zipper on the side.

              ^ Yes please do. I'm thinking of doing a DIY hooded jacket soon, just haven't got around to organizing all the materials for it. But yeah, if you remember that would be great man, cheers.

                I'm also interested: I'm going to have some zippers put in my boots, and the cobbler I talked to didn't know where to find riris. I'm trying to find black zippers with the pulls that Julius uses.

                  You can visit Riri Zippers directly and order from their website.
                  If you do have problems regarding the language, you can just send them an email in English. They also ship internationally.

                  I've ordered a couple of zippers a week ago and they are still stuck at the customs office...

                  Cheers,
                  Marc

                    Riri is very good quality zipper, just the price is a bit higher~

                        That first garment bag is exactly what I've been looking for recently, its a really clean simple cut.

                          The BBS bag modification is such a good idea. I constantly take that thing on and off
