Subtle look and easy to install. No wonder bag makers have been attracted to this magnetic closure for decades.
This hidden closure is thin but strong, and is placed through the lining fabric. This way, the back is between lining and outer fabric.
Placement:
- Reinforce the fabric where the magnetic closure is to be placed.
- Use a sharp knife or scissors to make two slits in the location of your closure.
- Put the prongs through the slits, place the washer over the prongs on the back of the fabric and push the prongs flat.
- If necessary, protect your outer fabric extra against sharp edges by fusing a piece of interfacing over the pins.
- Repeat on the other side.
