Good afternoon Cuties, I just got my second trolley tote made. I figure as this is team related, it could be for man or woman. I fussy cut the fabric and the football is faux leather/suede. I was undecided to use the brown ribbon, on the handles, but I think it ties in well and kind of gives it a leather look. What do you think? My niece loves this trolley sleeve idea as she has a bad shoulder.

By the way, I went back today and bought the rest of this fabric. Even though it was on clearance, I wasn't sure how it would sew up. Since I liked it, I went back. I will be making more, just not this trip.
Hope you don't mind me showing this one and that you like it, too.-Toogie

O that is great. You are right the brown ribbon is a wonderful touch. <br /><br />
Have not seen another one if you have posted one before. OK had not looked at all, but see the other one. Still have the same question. Absolutely love both. Great talent you have young lady.
I am curious do you make a bag then add the wide strip and enclose it in the side seam as well as place seams down back to hold it were you want it on the handle?

I add the luggage slip after I sew my straps to the back and before I sew front bag to back bag. I sew right on top of ribbon closest to side edges and baste to side seam edges. Then finish bag.

Love your trolley bags. I have seen this on a chinese site, but yours looks more individual. This will be a project for my next trip.

The next ones will be for Texas, I guess, as that's the next trip. I'll have to find a design suitable for then.Thanks Chris

Great job, Toogie. What kind of fabric is the gray? Hugs, Gail
1 comment
by toogie 15 Feb 2018
Gail, I'm not quite sure what the content of the fabric is. It has nylon in it, but also seems to have a slight waterproof feel, of the wrong side. It's not hard/stiff like some are. Sorry I can't tell you more than that.

Wow, Toogie. I love this. But you gave me an idea to make a wide "belt" with pockets to attach our existing personal bags to the carry-on handles instead of just hanging them by their strap on the carry-on handle.

That's what we do here, share ideas. Sometimes you just need to see something to think, 'I can do that' or 'I need to make one'. Glad you like and thank for looking.

I love these. I don't know that I'll be traveling again anywhere but clever idea. Yes, sure saves the shoulders and arms. I think the faux leather is a great touch. Everyone will be wanting one or wishing they had one. I could have used this when I did go to FL a few times and Myrtle Beach.
