Simple steps of sewing sandbags

Tools/raw materials: printed cloth, needle and thread, soft sand, flour. The steps of simply sewing sandbags are as follows:

1. Before making, find some colorful cloth and cut it into six small squares with the same shape and surface. Must be neat, color can be customized (needle and thread ready).

2. When starting, insert the needle into the eye of the needle, find the waste point of the starting line, and connect the edge points of the two pieces of cloth together so that the needle can be inserted and passed through.

3, and then open the seam, be sure to: the front needle and the back needle are so interspersed, try to get together, not too much inside, otherwise you will feel empty when loading sand.

4. Flatten the sewn two small pieces, pull the thread to both sides to see if it is tight enough, and then continue to pick up the remaining pieces of cloth to sew.

5, or bilateral alignment. When sewing, novices must be slow, don't stick their hands, and gently cut off the extra miscellaneous threads, which will be more tidy.

6. Now, the four sides have been completely sewn, except for the upper and lower ends, which are all made of two small colored cloths.

7. Don't forget to turn the beautiful side over. Pull out all four corners with your fingers. Leave a hole at the bottom to hold soft sand. Take soft things, not stones or hard things. It hurts to throw like that.

8. Stick the last side through, add more needles to the loose mouth and try to shake it a few times. If there is no leakage, a perfect sandbag is completed.
