Cool beans = cool bags.

Soft, flexible, and totally beginner-friendly, this vinyl is nothing like the stiff, sticky PVC that gives clear materials a bad rap. 

✨ Why You’ll Love It

  • Soft, pliable feel that’s easy to sew
  • Durable and waterproof for long-lasting, worry-free makes

Sewing tips for best results:

Use a 90/14 MicroTex needle, set your stitch length to at least 3mm, and use a Teflon foot to help it glide smoothly. We recommend polyester thread like Gütermann Mara 70 (Tex40) – it’s strong, consistent, and perfect for this material.

Care Instructions Wipe clean with a damp cloth and mild soap to keep your projects looking fresh. Avoid harsh chemicals to preserve the material.

Thomas V. ★★★★★

I’ve been sewing bags with clear vinyl for years, and the soft, pliable feel of this TPU is a game changer—it’s so much easier to work with than the stiff stuff. My first zippered pouch came out perfectly without any cracking or sticking.

Ellie X. ★★★★★

This vinyl is so much softer and more pliable than any other clear material I've tried, making it a breeze to sew straight lines without any sticking or frustration. I love how the final bag keeps its shape while still feeling flexible.

Evelyn ★★★★★

I was nervous about it being too stiff for my sewing machine, but this TPU feeds through like butter and the finished bag has such a nice, soft drape.
