WHAT YOU NEED TO MAKE THE BELTED BUCKET BAG

FABRIC
For the main exterior fabric I recommend using faux leather. Cork, or canvas fabric will make a great alternative too.
If you opt for faux leather or cork fabric, make sure to choose the one that is on the softer side - not too stiff.
If you choose to use canvas fabric, depending on the thickness of the fabric, you may need to apply soft interfacing such as fusible fleece or batting - Give it a quilting accent to make it more interesting.

For the accent and lining fabric, I recommend to use cotton quilting fabric (lightweight cotton).

ZIPPERS
You will need size #5 or #4.5 nylon coil zipper, one for the back exterior pocket, and one for the front exterior zipper pocket. I love using zipper by the yard for its efficiency.

HARDWARES
D-rings 1" (25mm) inner measurements 2x
Swivel hooks 1 1/2" (38mm) inner measurements 2x
Adjustable strap slider 1 1/2" (12mm) inner measurement

OTHER
