IDEATION
Different shapes, zipper placements, and attachment types were explored to make the bag as user-friendly as possible. After determining the optimal measurements, the first paper prototype was created.
MODELING
This bag was designed using Marvelous Designer, leveraging its Advanced Realistic Cloth Simulation capabilities. It was then rendered in Keyshot. This digital prototype effectively visualized the final product and validated my measurements.
FABRICATION
stitch
Sketch out the stitches and determine the sequence in which they should be sewn together
The fabric is cut to account for the measurements of the edges that will be sewn in
Begin by attaching the top piece of the bag to the side pieces. Then, cut an opening in the top piece to sew the upper part with zippers. Stitch the remaining pieces, leaving the zipper flap open as the only way to turn the bag inside out. Complete the bag by adding velcro elastic straps and a rope to connect the zippers, along with other finishing touches.
