    Patterns byAnnie are very difficult to follow and most all of them takes an advanced sewer. They ARE NOT good with sharing any extended information, answering questions when you get stuck or even replying to an email. I am so glad to hear that your frustration with these patterns are the very same ones I had. You did fantastic job on this bag! Just one more note….Most advanced sewers would like to know the size of coil on the zippers that are used for the project. Once again thank you for your insight❣️❣️

    I’m in ultimate travel bag overload ! It took me 1 whole day to lay out the pattern pieces. Day 2 cutting and labeling each piece *** I’m working with teal and parrot blue duck fabric. Print with contrasting solid*** third day I watched all Annie’s videos then on the fourth day began sewing. I wasted another 2 days trying to figure out what goes where. I don’t have the foggiest idea how to construct the bag. I’ve had the pattern, fabric, mesh,hardware etc for 5 years. Everything I’ve quilted/sewn during the5 years has been according to clear directions and pictures with diagrams. This pattern reduces my skill and confidence down to beginner. After listening to the challenges you encountered I was a bit relieved.
    $$$ please please please $$$ post a link or something that’ll take me to the craftsy video you found that was the most helpful. There are way too many videos that aren’t long enough to be a comprehensive teaching tool. If you can reply with information that I’ll be able to find the video on craftsy.
    TIP
    Tailoring chalk
    I was desperately looking for some marking tool and found tailor marking chalk. It was free to me and thankfully hadn’t tossed it. The chalk doesn’t rub off but can be washed or wiped off.

    • @MACoutureCrafting
      @MACoutureCrafting  2 роки тому +1

      I'm so sorry that you are having all these problems. I Assure you that you are not the only one. If you have cut out all of the pieces and quilted them you are well on your way. In fortunately because the video is behind a pay wall I can't link it here. I watched it so long ago I'm not even sure it is still available. Try googling the the first edition Ultimate Travel bag on Crafsy something might pop up

    I loved your video. You are very entertaining. I saw and heard were you had trouble with sewing the binding on. I found when I sew on the last step of the binding, it helps to decrease the pressure on your foot. My foot floated over the bulk of the binding, instead of quashing it. I t was easier to go around the curves also. Mine was set at 50 and I turned it down to 45 I think. Maybe 40. It made such a difference. OH and I love this bag also. Just recently got the pattern.

    So true! By Annie patterns take a little mental gymnastics to understand and execute. Once you make one then you get Annie's process, but that first one is a workout.

    I just found your channel not too long ago. I LOVE your version of the bag. I think im going to try to make the bag after the few projects I have going now. I'm a new quilter too (about a year in now) so you made me hopeful that I can make this.

    I love your bag and your choice of fabric. I made this bag and like you it wasn’t perfect but in making our first bag we see how we would change things for the next one, and yes I am going to make more. I love your teaching style and will be following you from now on. I am so glad I came upon your channel. Your bag is awesome and until you mentioned the upside down panel no one would have known. Thank you again for your tutorial and I look forward to more. Take care.

    I completely agree with you about needing pictures. I love ByAnnie products, but as a beginning quilter, I feel overwhelmed by her patterns. I have several patterns by have been anxious about trying them because they seem incredibly complicated. Thank you for your video. I appreciate your candor. :-) Helps me feel more confident about giving some of my patterns a try.

    Ooo thanks for this video! I just preordered a kit for this bag with Tula Pink’s Nightshade Ver 2.0 fabric and was worried about bulk with my machine. I’m going to sew this on my vintage machine (I have messed up my feed dogs on another sewing machine before with something to bulky, so not going to risk it with my newer machine). That bag is wicked cute!

    Thank you so much for making this video. I am inspired. I am a very beginning quilter, and the thought of the bigger quilts are exhausting just looking at them. I am ready for some smaller projects, so I will try the (bags) ones you mentioned first in the video before I tackle this one. I am somewhat afraid of the bindings, but I just watched Annie;s binding video and have that to fall back to if I start having trouble. Thank you again, and can't wait to see your other bags.

I, too, agree that you should work her free patterns to learn the basic process. I am hooked. ByAnnie is great. You are fabulous!!!
