    This literally took me about 20 minutes to make (I'm still a beginner) and it's so cuuuute. I found fat quarters for $1.25 (USD) and have been grabbing those and making a huge profit on my bags. Thank you for the video, very easy to follow!! 🥰

    Hi. Thank you for this! Really enjoyed making it but it definitely took me longer than 5 minutes!! I had to unpick the whole lot as I'd sewn the liner on the wrong way. However, it's now finished and almost looks like yours.

    • @SammiSaysCreate
      @SammiSaysCreate  4 роки тому +2

      Your very welcome Vikki!!! I'm glad you managed to make one!! I think it might be my fault you did the lining the wrong way!! I mentioned in the description and the top of the comments section that my voiceover said it wrong even though I actually did it right in the video 😔 I was really hoping that people would see it before they attempt it but it deffo gets missed so I apologise!! 💛💛💛 xxx

    Well this is just TOO cute! I used 1" webbing for the straps on my first one and I think with the webbing, a shorter strap works. I also snipped off the ends of the folded corners after stitching them just to get rid of the extra fabric in there. It's adorable--first one was for me to iron out the kinks (so to speak), and now I start making them for friends! Thank you so much for posting this!!!❤

    I've cut my fabric the wrong way so my bags are thinner and taller. For future ref you need to cut the fat quarter two shorter sides together. Hope that answers everyone's question.
