I absolutely loved watching your tutorial. You're so careful to show every detail of sewing and sharing helpful tips along the way. I especially love how patient and kind you must surely be in person. This is the first video of yours that I've watched, so I'll subscribe and look forward to watching more of your tutorials. Thank you so much for sharing your expertise in sewing. ❤
Your binding corners is the best demo I've seen. Although I've been making them most of my life something happened and I make them backwards. I think you fixed that.🎉❤😢
Your video on project bags was excellent. Nice personality you have for tutorial! I especially appreciated your joining of sewed on binding. Many thanks.
💕Love this excellent detailed, very informative, step by step tutorial! Perfect for a visual learner, like myself! Thank you so much for sharing your talent and knowledge! 😊
Just came across your video and you had me at “I like to stay home because I enjoy my own company”. Covid really didn’t affect me either because I don’t mind staying home. I often tell my friends….”I’m never, ever bored”. Thank you for the fun video. I’m teaching a project bag class to our quilt guild soon. We are doing a Block of the Month program and each month they bring their finished blocks to the guild meeting to get credit for finishing each month. The project bags are perfect for carrying the blocks so they don’t get dirty or misplaced. I also place a handle on my project bags so they’re easy to carry. I use double fusible bosal instead of batting and it helps the bags have a little support. Again, thank you for your video. Happy to find someone just like me!
@@KH-ko1khSo sorry I didn’t see your question until now. We put our handles at the top of the bag (back) before we assemble the bag. We found the middle of the back and placed the handle something like 2.5” on either side of the middle mark. Hope that’s helpful.
I must say you are the best online instructor that I have ever watched on UA-cam. You take your time and clearly explain all the steps. THANK YOU, THANK YOU, THANK YOU! I am 73 and fairly new to sewing small projects and I love it. Louise in New Hampshire GOD BLESS!
You’re so patient and calm I like your voice, so relaxing watching this. I’ve made a few of these also and even made a black pleather one for my 30 yo son, he loved it.
I'm about to try my first binding so I really appreciate this presentation and tutorial especially the corners. The camera work is top notch also. Thank you for sharing.
Wow you made this so easy for me to understand thank you so much.. I looked at alot of videos and to tell you the truth you made this so easy.. qhen I get into my new house in a month I am going to start my own project bags maybe even try selling some.. thank you so much 😊
So I’m pretty sure it’s been years since you bought that pretty Eiffel tower fabric, but if you remember where you purchased it, I would love to find some. It’s 2024 and I just watched your video which is fabulous so if you’re still in Texas and you’re still quilting could you maybe just send me a iMessage I would appreciate it. Thank you so much
@@suzannedougan4923 hello Suzanne!!!! I have looked for three days to try to find the Paris fabric…. I found some very similar on Etsy….. I know what I had was a fat quarter from either Joann’s or Walmart…. Got it maybe three years ago….❤️
Your my kind of quilter! Easy going, rogue, design what I need as I need it. I love the idea of fusible fleece quilt sandwiches to practice FMQ or decorative stitches and use as a pouch at the end. A two for one in my book!
Hi! When I first searched how to make a bag like this, I thought why in the world is her video so long. Thinking it was filled with a lot of preamble, I skipped over your video. Well, what a mistake that was! I love how doable you made this project. The tips and tricks you shared are invaluable. The one that struck home with me was how to do the final join in your binding. I’ve always struggled with that and the method you shared of the cross worked out great. Thank you ever so much!
You have such a soothing and positive voice. I could listen to you all day, I am glad I stumbled onto your UA-cam today. I love the way you do the project bag and will be trying it tomorrow. Thank you for a wonderful tutorial
Wonderful tutorial hope to see a tutorial using your orphan block. I have several extra 12 1/2 inch quilt blocks that I didn’t know what to do with a project bag is a wonderful idea
Tip: I use/align large rectangle post it notes with perfect edges inside a 1/4” along where the top of my vinyl and it glides thru the sewing machine and no fancy feet needed or slippery tissue paper. Best of all**no residue**when peeled off and reusable if stacked back on each other!
THANK YOU! This is the most detailed video I've found on how to make a project bag like I make mine to send to my daughter who lives too far away for me to teach her myself. We must be about the same age since I started quilting about the same time as Liz Porter, so I've been sewing a very long time and actually learned three new things from your video. 1) I'd learned to join my quilt binding by overlapping the cut ends by the width of the binding, so for 2.5" binding, I'd over lap the end by that length. Liz Porter's method is SO much better! 2) I paused your video and put some double-stick tape in my Amazon cart. And 3) I want a Bernina!
I just wanted to say how much I appreciate your video & specially sewing the mortar corners! my goodnesses I put together my project bag everything perfect up too the point of my corners had hiccups🤣🤣 sewed right over the fold oopsy doopsy! nothing worse then wasting a hole project bc of one simple thing wasn’t correctly done , glad I didn’t use my pricy fabric for this one! Thank you for your wonderful tutorial, easy too follow soft spoken well directed and your amazing!!!! 🌻🌻🌻🌻☕️
I’m making my sister a Project Bag for her birthday…so I’ve been researching all the tutorials, you should win an award. This bag video is amazing. Thank you for making it and know how appreciated it is received.
Searched for MANY HOURS for just the right video, and I'm so glad I did. Have made several large project bags for myself with good results, but my next endeavor will be for my niece's adult daughters, who need zipper pouches to carry small items in their leather backpacks. Your products have a very professional appearance, the instructions are certainly thorough, and the size is adjustable. I think mine will be 6" x 9". Can't wait to see the results!
Will make bag one day. Fabulous sewing machine you have but with the quilting your doing right machine for the job. I don't do quilting it's difficult to find a good haberdashery shop.
saw you struggling with finishing off your binding, here's a tip to keep your project out of the way while you try to pin it to finish the sewing. Take one of those large Paper clips, don't know what they are exactly called but you can get them from office supplies, Place a pad of fabric under the clip and you won't mark your vinyl. Thanks for the video.
What a nice project. Lovely to watch but I was willing you to cut the Eiffel Tower fabric from the top so you got a whole tower on the fabric. Nice fabrics as well.
I enjoyed your video you’re very precise and explanatory. However, I would suggest that you press your fabric before you start cutting for accuracy beautiful bags. Thank you so much.😊
Tip: I get wrinkles out of vinyl by putting it in bathtub with hot water for a few minutes, then lay flat to dry. I hated having to use a blow dryer. If you have that wide yardage from big box store, you can roll it into tub in long sheets and drag and drape over shower curtain rod and hang dry with a towel on the floor to catch the drips on the outside of tub!

May I ask where you placed the handle on your bag? I'm assuming it would be the size of a wristlet or smaller? Thank you. PS: I love being home, too.
@@KH-ko1khSo sorry I didn’t see your question until now. We put our handles at the top of the bag (back) before we assemble the bag. We found the middle of the back and placed the handle something like 2.5” on either side of the middle mark. Hope that’s helpful.

I'm about to try my first binding so I really appreciate this presentation and tutorial especially the corners. The camera work is top notch also. Thank you for sharing.
I was taught to heat up your ironing surface and lay down the vinyl and no heat from an iron. It really works for me. Love your fabric.
Hahaha just seen your fiddlesticks n stitches “ name how stinking cute!!!!🌻🌻🌻🌻🌻🤣

Great tutorial with lots of good tips. You did not mention that the back is on upside down. Oops-a-dasie.
Excellent information. I’ve made many of these. You had a few pointers I did not know. The video could have been shorter.
I enjoyed your video you’re very precise and explanatory. However, I would suggest that you press your fabric before you start cutting for accuracy beautiful bags. Thank you so much.😊
Instead of pinning you could use wonder clips. These would not leave holes on the vinyl. Very good instructions thank you.👏
Thank you for such a awesome video. But i happen to notice the eiffel towers on back ate upside down 😢
Great video with so many tips. Love the floral fabric, any idea on the name and brand?
I wish I could remember but I think I got it from an online site called Helios stitches???
What kind of sewing machine do you use?😻
Bernina 770…❤️

Do you have a tutorial for the in the hoop journal cover ? 😌
No I don’t yet….I’m sorry….
What kind of sewing machine are you sewing on. Looks like it sews really quiet.
@@ejej1964 Bernina 770QEE it is very quiet and a wonderful machine….❤️
Great instructions but wish you would of shown the sewing of end of the binding😅
I would like to have seen you hand stitch the binding.😢
I have done it in a different video… look for my quilt binding video and you can see it…❤️
Excellent information. Was too long for me.
I hope you got better at filming. Most of the zipper was not caught on video.
I think you would be happier watching an actual studio filmed tutorial… Bernina has many on UA-cam…. Check out Bernina USA or weallsew .com
