Thank you! These are the clips I use: a.co/d/01f5eQv I remove the rubber cover from the tips.

Yes that is how it will look, it is necessary to allow the corner to poke out neatly. I will be doing more videos showing different styles of zipper closures on this pattern (but can be used on other patterns too), some of which eliminate the gap, but for most styles the gap is part of the construction.

@ Ok. Thank you. Looking forward to your new videos!

Thank you! ☺️

I use Kesote branded double sided tape, I get it from Amazon

Thank you Pam! I’m glad it helped.

Hi Danielle! Yes it is similar but slightly bigger, I made it to the specifications of a good friend of mine - it is wider and a bit taller. It can be done with a regular zipper. Bag making can be intimidating but just takes a bit of patience and practice, if you are anxious about starting may I suggest something that has fewer pieces and only requires a zipper to get used to the techniques involved in sewing bags - I have two pouch patterns, the Betty Pouch and the Pythagorean Pouch that are also free on my channel here that will help you practice some skills. I’m on vacation at the moment but I am more than happy to answer questions when I am able, I have a support group on Facebook “OKSewists” that you can join if you like to get more guidance too. You can of course dive right in with this pattern though, you may surprise yourself with how quickly you build your skillset!

@@OKSew474 Thank you so much for your reply and for your offer to help. I will look into the 2 pouch patterns and the facebook group for sure. Have a great vacation!

Hi Stephanie! I have not, but I can tell you that generally I use Gutermann polyester thread that I buy from Wawak. I use the Mara 100 (Tex 30) for all construction and for about half of my topstitching, and Mara 70 (Tex 40) for topstitching the rest of the time (depending on the color I need). I sew on a domestic Juki so the best thread may be different depending on an individual’s machine.

You’ve very welcome! It’s from Wolf & Rabbit custom fabric, however it was some time ago that I purchased it so I’m not sure if it is still available.

You're very welcome! So glad to hear it has helped you!

I used fusible fleece - thermolam or heavy weight from Pellon. I prefer to use both interfacing and a stabilizer (fleece in this case). Interfacing will give your fabric structure to make it easier to work with, while stabilizer will give your project shape.

Thank you for the suggestion! I can add it to my list, are you looking for suggestions for patterns to sew in bulk or strategies to use to make it go more smoothly?

@OKSew474 good idea both sounds great to learn..thanks for responding

I’m sorry that the measurement I gave didn’t work, to be honest I’m not sure why that has happened. The pattern that I used for the video tutorial was quite some time before my channel gained some popularity and the original pattern was hand drawn on a sheet of paper. When I had it digitized it’s possible the size changed a bit, but if is also possible that I misspoke! May I ask what the finished height of your Logi pattern piece is? Mine ends up about 11.25” tall give or take so 10.5” would be 3/8” from the top and bottom, then I snip off the corners.

@ Thank you for replying to my query. I traced the pattern onto the plastic sheet omitting the seam allowance for directional prints. It went together perfectly, except that it only measures 10.5” from top to bottom. It’s not a problem, I was just wondering if I’d missed something. I made them for a Kris Kringle gift here in Melbourne, Aust and they were a huge hit. Thank you once again for your beautiful pattern and excellent tutorials. Have a very Happy Christmas from a very grateful subscriber. 💖

I use Kesote brand double sided tape from Amazon in 1/8”

Thank you for the feedback, I will endeavor to add more product info in the descriptions of my videos. I generally don’t when I am demonstrating a technique more than a product but if it would be helpful I can certainly add it. The table press I use is the DK98 from Kam Snaps but it is no longer available (I got mine almost a decade ago), it was replaced by the DK93. I have an adapter to be able to use different dies on the one press, any of their presses with interchangeable dies would be my recommendation. Kam Snaps is a reliable brand.

@@OKSew474I use jam snaps. Love the brand. Thank you! I’m impressed that you answered. So many don’t bother.

Glad to help, I may not always be timely but I try to reply as much as I am able!

You're very welcome! I'm glad you're finding the tutorials helpful.

Hi! When you print you can select a smaller percentage, based on the finished size you are going for. This video is for scaling up but it will show you where to adjust the settings if that is something new to you: Scaling Up With Poster Settings - An OKSew Quick Tip ua-cam.com/video/sFi89P-gWlo/v-deo.html I do have a coin purse as part of the Betty pouch pattern, Perfect Corners, Perfect Curves: The Betty Pouch ua-cam.com/video/G5FaowwR00U/v-deo.html

Glad to have you!

That is high praise, thank you!

It’s such a great method! I have a video with more detail if you are interested: Save The Pockets! - Hybrid birthing method with no ridge and no popped pocket seams ua-cam.com/video/yvGIOJ99ZMA/v-deo.html

You are very welcome!

Thank you for the tips!

I’m a newbie but I don’t see a list of type of fabric you used can you share ? And are those metal fabric clips ?

@@rosac8168 they are metal alligator clips for lanyards and glasses but they are excellent for sewing; I have only recently started using them and I am finding them to be a great investment (www.amazon.com/gp/product/B08P72N5BV/ref=ewc_pr_img_1?smid=AI2RDAU9D85OZ&psc=1). For my appliqués I am using a few different types of faux leather vinyl - marine vinyl, promo, glitter vinyl. I got mine from my scrap box but most are from My Punkbroidery. My main exterior is Star Dust vinyl from there also, and my bag lining is cotton canvas.

Thank you! It’s navy Star Dust from My Punk Broidery, it’s a fantastic line.

It absolutely is! I am so glad you have enjoyed the Penny!

Glad to have you here!

Thanks so much! I’m so pleased you are finding them helpful. ❤️

My fabric choices vary depending on the project; for this style of pouch I find quilting cotton interfaced with light to medium interfacing to work best with cotton canvas or lightly interfaced cotton woven for the lining. In my “More Tips for Top Zips” video I cover using thicker materials.

Thank you! I absolutely want to help you, I’m not quite following what you mean when you say to offset the zipper - do you mean how much longer to make it one end so you can still sew it or are you referring to the seam allowance when sewing it to the curve?

@ yes, how long to make it one end. Thank you!!

@@OKSew474 do you think for the mini 1 1/2” would be enough!!

Yes I think so, I just came here to suggest 1.5-2” will be enough extra! Sorry for the slow reply, kids are home so I’m not able to be as quick. I can’t wait to see your finished pouch!

@ thank you for responding; really appreciate it!!

I do not but you could follow the full-sized instructions for adding a lining; I know people in the OKSew Facebook group have tried it. Some have also lined with HTV for a thinner option.

Thank you for this very generous comment! I’m so glad to be able to be able to help.

Glad you found it!

I have many different sources, favorites are Geek Garden Fabric, My Handmade Space, Oh So Pretty, Blended Thread Fabric.

Thank you!

That particular one is from Wolf & Rabbit custom fabric.

I’m so glad you have a technique you like!

Absolutely! Another option is to cut it taller and baste it to the top & bottom edges with a zig zag stitch.

@ thank you for your feedback and for all your great tutorials!!

Thank you 🥰
