Luggage Tag
Make a Luggage Tag for every bag so you’re always ready to travel. Customize your Luggage Tags with embroidery, appliqués, or patches.
Materials
1 – 3-inch by 8-inch piece of jean material (Luggage Tag)
1 – 3-inch by 3³/4-inch piece of 8–12-gauge vinyl (Address Protector)
1 – 1¹/2-inch by 10-inch piece of jean material (Luggage Strap)
1 – 3-inch by 3¹/2-inch piece of cardstock (Identifier)
1 – Small buckle
INSTRUCTIONS
Make a mark ³/4 of an inch down and in from each corner on the wrong side of the Luggage Tag and draw a line between the marks for the buttonholes. For the inner box, mark ³/4 of an inch from both the top and bottom 1-³/8 inch and 3-³/8 inch from the right side, creating four marks representing the four corners of the box. Draw a box connecting the marks and make a mark ¹/4 of an inch diagonally from each corner of the inner box. Make a 1-inch mark on the Address Protector ³/4 of an inch from one end so that the Address Protector will match the buttonhole in the Luggage Tag.
Sew a 1-inch buttonhole along the markings on each side of the Luggage Tag. If you would like to know more about sewing a button hole for this project you can reference the Making a Buttonhole
tutorial at the end of the book. Cut the buttonholes open, cut out the inner box, and cut the four diagonal lines of the Luggage Tag. Sew a zigzag stitch around the unfinished edges of the inner box. Cut open the Address Protector
