Step 8Attaching the handles to the bag...
A. UNFOLDED THE FIRST FOLD OF THE TOP OF THE BAG.
I marked where I want the handles to go, about 5 or 6 inches apart, and I marked this on both the front and back of the bag. Then clamp the handles on the inside of the bag with a binder clip matching the end of the handle with the fold on the bag.
B. Sew a line across each of the handles to hold them in place.
C. Fold the top of the bag back to the inside - YES, THE HANDLES WILL BE IN THE BAG AT THE MOMENT.
D. Sew down the hem of the bag, around the entire bag.
E. Fold your handles back up so they stick out of the bag, and you can see in the picture I used big paperclips to hold them in place.
F. I didn't take a great picture of this point on this bag, so I'm using a picture from the first bag (the guinea pig bag) to show that I am starting to sew the pattern in picture G from the top of the bag. (Used bulky binder clip where paperclips turned out smarter.)
G. The pattern I used to sewed the handle down = a box around and then an X through. Again this picture is from the first bag I made, so it doesn't have the line of sewing around the entire bag from picture D that you should see on your bag at this point.
