Rings
Rings, carabiners and key rings are indispensable sewing ingredients when it comes to constructing sturdy bags, rucksacks and key rings. In this category you will find practical metal rings and fasteners in various sizes and designs, which not only have a fastening function but also act as a decorative detail. Whether you are sewing a shoulder bag, belt fastening or a robust key ring - the right rings make all the difference.
What are the rings suitable for?
Bag rings and carabiners are suitable for attaching straps, carrying handles and key rings. Key rings are ideal for holding several keys together securely or for attaching pendants. Metal rings carry loads reliably and are durable - making them the first choice for projects that have to withstand a lot of use.
Processing tips for hobby seamstresses
- Choose the ring size to match the belt width: a ring that is too small can create pressure points, one that is too large looks bulky.
- Reinforce stress points with webbing, an additional layer of fabric or interfacing (e.g. sturdy Vlieseline) before sewing in the ring.
- Use robust needle sizes and suitably strong thread; a leather or jeans needle can help with thicker materials.
- Rivets or screw eyelets are a stable alternative to sewing for particularly stressed connections.
- When threading carabiners, make sure that hinges and fasteners remain easy to move and are not blocked by fabric edges.
