- This is a super no end way of doing handbag straps.
In the video I've used the following to make a 1" wide strap;
Tan faux leather- 34" x 2"
Floral cotton- 28" x 2"
You'll also need connector tabs- see specific pattern for measurements
This pattern is a Crafted by Leanne video

Love these straps and so easy, thank you for the tutorial.
Love this! I made it using my swivel clips. Thank you for this tutorial!
Oh these straps look fabulous ❤
Thank you for sharing, very helpful technique.
Great tutorial. Thanks for sharing
what a awesome tutorial !!!
thank you for the great video. I tried this method and absolutely love it.
Great idea Thanks for sharing
I saw this strap used in a bag making group. I asked the maker how it was done and she gave a pretty good description, but having a video is priceless!! Thank you very much.
Love this strap design. Thank you Leanne
I love it so nice looking thanks
Great idea!
Love this!!!
Simply amazing! No ugly fold overs, and no struggling with a domestic machine to get over all those layers. Wow.
This makes me want to take apart all my straps and redo them. Haha! Thanks for the video!
I love this way of doing straps, I just always forget
I love these straps - they look so professional. I do find it easier to assemble the connectors first and then add them to the strap as per the video.
Good job
I have been hunting for this video and kept overlooking it. Finally! I love this method. Anytime I can connect two fabrics on the bias I am Happy Happy. I hate the bulk created by sewing straight across. Thank you so much for making this video.
Genius way to do some fancy straps!
Thank you Leanne, I just made my straps with vinyl and cotton and they came out beautiful... Thanks for the great instructions . Now on to part 1 video
oh yay, can't wait to see
Thanks Leanne, think I will make this strap for my Harlequin crossbody! Great video too!
Lovely! I'm working the Whatever Tote now so I'm moving right along. Thank you Leanne!
Love it!! I would love to see a cross body strap done like this😬😊
It’s easy to do this with a crossbody strap. Make the strap first, as per the video, but add a slider by its centre bar instead of one of the rings. You can then thread the second ring on by passing the short side of the first ring through it - it’s a bit of a squeeze but it will go. Move the loose ring down near the slider, then thread the first ring through the slider sideways, one side at a time. Again, it’s a bit of a fiddle but it’ll go through. You’ll then have a standard adjustable strap with a ring hanging from the looped part. Attach to the bag as normal. I find it easier to add the connectors to the rings before I start making the strap.
Handiann, I came here because I love this tutorial and I was going to ask in the Facebook group how to do it with a slider. You are a mind reader! Thank you so much.
I love these straps.
Love this! Thank you Leanne.
I've seen a few variations of this type. I just did one similar but with a straight connection. I really really really like you angled version and will be doing that in my next shoulder bag.
Love this technique! Would this work for a crossbody strap?
What a great idea looks great as well
What a great handle!!!!
Cool way to make straps. I'm going to do this way on everything x Thank you for all your videos 😍
Love the straps I will be doing these from now on thank you
AWESOME! Thanks for sharing
Love these great tutorial thankyou
Thank you for this tut, I love it and the straps are gorgeous.
thank you Leanne
Love the straps
Great Tutorial!
Beautiful 😍 thanks for sharing
Excellent!
Fan bloody tastic!
Once finished, how long is the finished strap? not including the connectors.
Could this method be made for an adjustable strap with a slider?
It could yes, you need to piece the straps first so they were long enough
I just purchased your pattern and look forward to doing these straps. Did you use a woven interfacing on the printed cotton fabric?
yes interfaced the cotton
Thanks for the great information. Also, how wide is the double face tape that you used?
I use 1/4" DST so that I don't sew over it
Hi Leanne. Is there a way to make an adjustable cross body strap using this method?
Absolutely you could if you made the pieces long enough, just make sure the one strap piece is longer than the other to get the folds
@@craftedbyleanne1549 I would be interested in a video on how to use this technique on a crossbody strap with a slider. Thank you so much.
Love this!
