I am convinced that every video where someone just slips the zipper pull on easy-peasy was edited to remove the 576,092,855 times they tried and failed to install it, LOL. These are very attractive, and what a clever way to put them together. Hopefully Santa will bring the zipper tape & pulls I had on my wishlist so I can make some of these in January. This is an excellent tutorial; thank you for sharing it with us all 🙂
I know what you mean. Zippers are my nemesis but I practiced with the tape before I sewed it in, over & over & over (you get the idea) until I got the knack. Good luck😊
@@susanowen1709 yes they did. I finally walked away for a bit. Went back for another try and finally got it. I want to make another but don’t want to go thru that again.
Despite cutting it the wrong way, I still made two Hemingway pouches that are very useful. I donated one, with a book, to a little library on a telephone pole in our neighbourhood. Thank you for your instructions which I should have followed more carefully!
Oh, glad to see a new channel. The other zipper tutorials are edited, until they get a successful shot of the zipper slipping right on. And you showing that it’s not perfectly square is refreshing. Other tutorials think they’re showing the perfect project technique. But I’m not perfect. This would be great for tablets or bigger for that laptop that goes back and forth to school in a backpack, with food crumbs, lint, and who knows what else. Thanks for the great idea.
This is my new favorite tutorial! I love your laid back style. The fact you don’t strive for perfection, you just do it because you love it! I am that way too! I will henceforth be backspacing all my projects! I love it!!!
on the zipper if you clip off a few teeth on one side and put pull onto the longer side it gives you a little extra room to get the next side into the pull. Also they make a zipper jig. Don't get the ones that are for towel holders... they look like a silver teardrop shape ... they are not helpful in my experience. Some ppl use a fork. I finally just started using the shorter teeth on one side method. I do put it down onto a table and use two fingers (one on each side of sip tape) and wiggle zipper pull it works lol.
The YT algorithm suggested your video and I’m so glad it did (I often question what they suggest I watch ☺️). You won me over when you said something like you weren’t the greatest at this but you just loved sewing, and I couldn’t agree more. It’s about the enjoyment we get from our hobby, not whether it’s perfect. I’d never seen one of these pouches and loved your tutorial. You didn’t prattle on unnecessarily and your enjoyment with your sewing was evident in your voice. I love your accent by the way. Thank you and best wishes from rural Victoria, Australia. Cheers, Lisa 😀🇦🇺
I recently bought the Hemingway pattern and watched a few videos about it, but your method is the best. I love the two for one approach and no waste is the cherry on top! Thank you!!
What a clever idea! I just love this. These bags would also be ideal for travelers to use for packing. I can see so many uses for these. Thank you for sharing your idea!
What a great idea. You make it look so easy. Sewing has ever been my strong point, but I do love to sew. I just might have to give this a try. Thank you.
The tutorials for these pouches started popping up in my feed a couple of weeks ago. This one makes sense! Easy construction and method. I'm used to making ByAnnie bags, so the zipper pull was quite easy. Made my first 2 today. They won't be my last. Thank you for sharing.
I bought this pattern from Center Street, and it was very easy to make!! But you are a genius with that one cut of the fabric!!!! No waste… 🎉❤. I made the smallest one and even put a finger loop on it, just above the top portion of zipper. And wouldnt this make a great little crossbody bag also?! I’m gonna figure that one out too!! Thanks for your excellent video!
Hi. Really enjoyed this video. The quilting works very well for the pouch. I watched while having a coffee thinking, I have some lovely fat quarter fabrics I could use for this. So, I'm going to rush through my chores and then start sewing. Best wishes from a fellow crafter in the UK
I was at a Quilt Retreat this weekend and a lot of women were making the Hemingway bag. I was working on other things but watching them make it. Your instructions are so much more clear than how they were doing it. I’m making one tomorrow afternoon thank you.
Loved this tutorial! That being said, as a seasoned quilter to one who is starting out, do yourself a favor, if you won't cut paper with a dull blade, don't cut fabric with a dull blade. You not only put yourself in harm's way if that cutter slips but you also run the risk of ruining your cut which will impact your piecing. And, please, take the few minutes necessary to press the wrinkles out of your fabric. You don't need to steam or starch, just get the wrinkles and folds out. They, too, have impact on your cuts and your piecing. Looking forward to your next project!
Your filmed this just right. When you said this is very, very easy. I think you did a very good job with the technique and instructions. I have all the supplies needed. Thank you so much. Keep it up.
Love the 2 from 1! Try binding from the outside side, - press away from the center, fold to the back & clip, then stitch in the ditch from the front to secure the binding.
AFTER WATCHING THIS FANTASTIC VIDEO, I DID FOUR SMALL POUCHES JUST SO I CAN GET USED TO DOING THIS AND I FREAKIN LOVE IT! IT'S SO FAST! AND YES IT DOES MAKE GREAT GIFTS!
Thank you for showing this! I knew there had to be a way to cut the fabric on an angle instead of throwing the top piece away or make a small pouch from it. I would rather do two good sized ones at once. I have seen several people doing these pouches. They are all easy but I am so happy to find yours since it shows how to cut the fabric at an angle to start with.
OMGosh! I am so glad I came across your channel. I love watching your tutorial and listening to your voice. You are so positive and comforting!!! I appreciate how you explain the process and how you point out short cuts and how to avoid mistakes. God love your heart. 💗 We would all be so blessed to have a neighbor like you. Thank you for what you do. 🌹 😊
I'm very excited to learn a new craft medium with you. You inspire me so much with your beautiful.paper craft skills! I recently caught the quilting bug so I have been scanning UA-cam for easy beginner projects and stumbled upon your new channel and I immediately subscribed. You are kind of an addiction. Lol. Keep em coming and I'm excited to learn right along with you.
A very good tutorial...your admitting your own difficulties with those zips is very reassuring!! And your tips are very user- friendly..just have a go! Great idea and I shall be having a go, definitely. From West Yorkshire in UK.
I was playing around and used my wrapper from the Sonic that my hamburger was in and mad a smaller version of this project I thought it turned out pretty well my kids liked it and they don't always like Granny's project so they tell my true!!
Thank you! Great tutorial! I enjoy making bags from Center Street Quilts. They look so nice inside and out. I don't know what I did but all of a sudden the zipper pull was on and the zipper matched perfectly. Yay!
Thank you so much for this video. I did purchase the pattern but this all made it simple in using any size and creating 2 makes it less wastage which I love ❤
Wow this was an amazing sewing tutorial! Way to go MayMay! I so wish my sewing machine didn’t break a couple months ago. I think I need to find a used one to replace it. Many decades ago I sewed a lot of my children’s clothes and other easy projects. This book cover is so cool. My daughter reads like I breathe….always has her nose in a book and this would be wonderful gifts for her. I think at Christmas she got at least a dozens new books to read and all her bookshelves are full. Thank you for sharing this new endeavor with us and I look forward to more. ☺️
I agree, putting the zipper pull on, is the hardest. I’ve seen people use a fork,but that never worked for me. I wonder, if instead of binding the inside seams, if your serger would work?
Thank you so much for your tutorial. I learned a couple techniques here. I bought the pattern and followed their directions but I really like how you do the binding. I think it makes it less sick in one of the corners. I wasn’t liking how thick the one corner was, but by doing your method of binding, it should make the turned out corner much cleaner. I also like your explanation and how we can make two at once. I took the scrap piece from using the other pattern and made a bag but I liked your explanation. It gave me more confidence to try with any piece of material. Looking forward to checking out your channel.
OHHHHH WOWWWWWW❤❤❤❤ You have NO IDEA how much you just helped me‼️‼️My daughter just texted me about an hour ago & showed me a photo of a pouch she "absolutely needed by this upcoming weekend" for her Kindle!!! And no joke... it was this same EXACT design‼️‼️‼️🤘😃 So THHHHHHHAAAANNNNKKKKK YOUUUUUUUUUU SOOOOO MUCHHHH‼️‼️‼️This is quite possibly THE BEST TUTORIAL I've ever watched‼️‼️‼️
Can vouch for how easy (and fun) this pouch is to make. The possibilities are endless. I used a larger tooth zipper because it was a two-color number that went well with my fabric, but I think yours lays flatter and looks better in the top corner using a smaller scale zipper. The pattern also has a glasses case size that would be perfect for sunglasses (as a stocking stuffer.)
Wonderful tutorial! You are such a good teacher. I have made many ByAnnie patterns. Love the zippers and the wide tape, but those pulls can be awful. Looking forward to more tutorials!
I just realized I have the same Singer Quantum as you. Now I feel that I have arrived. LOL. It's a good machine. Have a blessed day and many more to come your way.
I had to chuckle, I watched another person doing this pouch and thought - we could just make 2 out of 1 larger piece of fabric - and then I watched yours, and there it is! I think paper crafting has helped my brain think differently about fabric.
What a terrific gift and you make it look possible! I can't wait for my sewing table to be moved over and my craft room to be reassembled. It will be a terrific 2024 with Maymay!! Happy new year
I enjoyed your video for the Hemingway Pouch! I had bought the pattern from Center Street, but hands down your instructions are the best. Love your style. Liked & Subscribed!! Becky from Parker CO
Excellent tutorial by the way Love how you put these together and I've just cut 4 out lol!! I'm waiting on the zipper tape and pulls I've never used them before so hopefully mine goes as well as yours.. thanks for sharing 😜from Nottingham England x
Loved this video. Made two pouches today. 1st time adding a zipper to anything. I'm not afraid anymore. Lol. The pouches turned out great. Wish I could should a picture.
I buy everything from Missouri star quilt company! They have the BEST prices and shipping is free in the USA over a certain amount (I think it's like 50.00) and in' canada it only costs me 20.00 and no duty fees etc!!
This is the first time to see this channel. First let me say I don't know where you find the time to sew, let alone create an entire channel! You simply amaze me! This is a darling project that does seem easy. Except adding the zipper pull of course! We recently moved and my sewing and paper crafting is still packed away. I can't wait to get my space all set up so I can get back to crafting with you! Thanks for all you do for us. You've got mad skills in many areas!🤩
Stop underestimating your skill! I thought your tutorial was great! I have grandchildren that are bookworms so I’m gonna make lots of these! Thank you so much for sharing. Merry Christmas from Trowbridge England. 😊
You could totally save time by making these out of dollar store placemats as your quilted fabric! Add a zipper and the binding and you're out the door! 💖🌞🌵😷
Sitting here in bed with a early morning cup of watching you make this book cover or little cover and loving the way your video is so friendly and encouraging , well done and happy Christmas from ireland
Great video! Zippers are getting easier for me, but intriguing to only use half of it. Another person I follow uses a “zipper jig,” I think Gypsy makes them ( not positive), but she makes putting on the zipper pull look so easy using this tool. Thanks!
I made these..bought the pattern from etsy - watched a different lady make it..She said I hate to waste this piece (i made the large size) Immediately I knew when I cut mine what I was gonna do - I made another one for pens and highlighters 😊 thanks for this video..
You popped up on my YT feed. What an excellent tutorial and your first. You should do it more often! People I’ve followed for years aren’t this good. Look forward to seeing more videos from you. I’m in the U.K.
I am convinced that every video where someone just slips the zipper pull on easy-peasy was edited to remove the 576,092,855 times they tried and failed to install it, LOL.

This is an excellent tutorial; thank you for sharing it with us all 🙂
I know what you mean. Zippers are my nemesis but I practiced with the tape before I sewed it in, over & over & over (you get the idea) until I got the knack. Good luck😊
For real, tho!😂
I have been trying for over 2 hrs.
@@Pronge1948 Oh, dear. Are the edges fraying? The edges always fray on mine after about 3 attempts.
@@susanowen1709 yes they did. I finally walked away for a bit. Went back for another try and finally got it. I want to make another but don’t want to go thru that again.
To install the zipper pull, remove 3 or 4 teeth from one side, add zipper to the other side, and then add to the side that has the teeth remover
Despite cutting it the wrong way, I still made two Hemingway pouches that are very useful. I donated one, with a book, to a little library on a telephone pole in our neighbourhood. Thank you for your instructions which I should have followed more carefully!
Such a great idea! And there’s one close to me! I’m definitely going to donate some. That’s great practice!

Very nice tutorial! I love that you put two pouches together with no waste! Genius! Love that binding technique for small projects too! Bravo!!!❤
I made two of these using your tips, so much less wastage and they are still nice size pouches, thanks.
If you use the walking foot to quilt it won't be as distorted plus pinning or basting it helps I love the way you did 2 from 1 FQ! Genius!
LOVE LOVE LOVE this tutorial. You definitely have a great way of explaining the process. I can't wait to make one.
I recently bought the Hemingway pattern and watched a few videos about it, but your method is the best. I love the two for one approach and no waste is the cherry on top! Thank you!!

Thank you for sharing this video - I found it so helpful. Greetings from North Wales UK. 🙋🏻♂🙋🏻♂
I love these pouches and made a few smaller ones for my rotary cutters, so versatile and works well using leftover quilt sandwiched layers

Love the 2 from 1! Try binding from the outside side, - press away from the center, fold to the back & clip, then stitch in the ditch from the front to secure the binding.
I will next time because the bound seam was too bulky inside after I turned it right side out. I think binding on the outside will look fine.
Thank you for the video. At the end I wanted to see you insert the book into the finished pouch.

You need to angle the zipper at 45 degrees to get the pull seated! It works like a charm! Love this video!!
Love it going to try it

OHMYGAWWD! MAYMAY I DID IT! IT'S THE CUT! IT'S ALL ABOUT THE CUT! WOW!
