Leopard Clear TPU Vinyl – Sewing Vinyl for Bag Making
Leopard Clear TPU Vinyl is a see-through TPU (thermoplastic polyurethane) vinyl. It's pliable, sturdy and sews on a regular home sewing machine, making it perfect for clear bags, pouches and accessories.
This vinyl is softer than typical 12 gauge, so some sewists adjust their machine tension – test on a scrap first.

Frequently Asked Questions
What size is each roll?
Each roll measures 18" x 54" (one continuous piece) and is approximately 12 gauge (0.4mm) thick.
What is TPU vinyl?
TPU (thermoplastic polyurethane) vinyl is pliable and durable, resists cracking and is much easier to sew than standard PVC clear vinyl.
Can I sew it on a home sewing machine?
Yes. Use a Teflon foot and a Microtex needle, and lengthen your stitch to about 3–3.5mm. If it doesn't feed evenly, increase your presser foot pressure. Test on a scrap first.
Does it have a protective film?
Some rolls do. Peel it off before you sew.
How do I turn a clear bag right side out?
Warm the vinyl briefly with a blow dryer – it softens and turns much more easily.
Can I use pins?
Use clips or Wonder Tape instead. Pins leave permanent holes in vinyl.
Is this the same as adhesive craft vinyl?
No. This is sewing vinyl for bags and accessories – it has no adhesive backing and isn't meant for cutting machines like Cricut.
What can I make with it?
Clear pouches, makeup bags, pencil cases, stadium bags and travel organizers. See our clear vinyl project list.
