I don't normally make bags but I think this one is going to happen! Thanks!
Oh I'm so happy to hear this!! I absolutely LOVE mine!
Patty, I’m so looking forward to making the pouch and then this bag! You’re not zooming through instructions, assuming we all know what’s going on! Thank you for taking the time to create a fun project & video. Excited to start bag making!
Thank you so much for that feedback Lorrie!! I cut out so much to get this tutorial down to a reasonable length, and I'm glad to hear it doesn't feel that way to you. I'm going to do a couple of shorter videos showing just the easy zipper method and just the boxing of corners and just the strap making. Then you can reference the shorter videos if you need just a part of the process and don't have to wade back through the whole video. The zipper pouch is a really fun little project! Start there for sure. Expect to see another zipper pouch soon to introduce one with boxed corners. I have already made a few of those, and I just love them!
This looks amazing. Reminds me of something a well known designer has done with clothing.
That's very kind! Thank you!! I absolutely LOVE mine!
Great video! Patty, in my opinion you are one of the best instructors/ teacher, your voice volume is clear , concise, and same volume\tone all though the video, very calming and encouraging! Picture quality is great, I love the auto focus on your videos. Your step by step approach is awesome. I can see why it takes a long time to shoot and edit the videos, it is so worth he wait on my side. The written instructions are a mirror image of your videos. !!! ❤🥇🥇
Oh my gosh! Thank you so much!! I generally start with the blog post and get that written and then edit the video. And I do try to make it all cohesive. This project took me 2 full weeks to construct and film and edit and write. There are so many moving parts to even a simple bag project like this one, and figuring out what to keep and what to delete is challenging. I always do my best on whatever I share, and I'm so happy you noticed. Thank you!
I don't know if I'll do anything else with this much detail for a very long time, or ever, because the views are not there. But I can do abbreviated project videos going forward, and people can refer back to this if they need more detail. Viewers really prefer entertainment to learning at this point on youtube so I need to figure out how to shift what I'm doing on the channel to better address that shift.
So I love the bag! I just got your personalized email such a good idea! I’m ordering fabric tonight to make it. You’re the best instructor! Thank you for everything!
Thank you so much!!! I really appreciate that!! I absolutely LOVE my bags!!
What a great video! I love how you point out how things get wonky. I have made several bags and pouches and am familiar with the wonkiness. I have the Boxed Bag template by Carolina Moore, and it is great. I don’t have to worry about over cutting my boxed corners. I also use regular 1/8 inch double-sided tape to hold the zippers in place while I sew. This tote would make a great shopping bag. Thank you!
Thank you! Yeah nobody ever shows the wonkiness or tells you about it. I thought it was important to address it. It gets removed in trimming but for so long, I thought I was doing something wrong. I'll check out the template! and I love the tip about the double sided tape! I think of this as more of a handbag than a shopping bag, but for small items, it does work well. I need to do more photos to show me holding it for scale. The weather hasn't been all that cooperative for photos, so I only have the bag itself. But it's good size. My water bottle fits in there.
@@PattymacMakes I wondered if I were doing something wrong, too. I still try to make edges meet, so it’s great to see that I don’t have to worry about it. I think this tote would be a good size for errands or those times when you’re just getting a few items. I love that it has the zipper.
@@Sherri_O Yes exactly! It holds more than you think and I will do a demo video to show that.
It's always better if we have fabrics line up as expected...but with all these layers it's impossible for them to not shift. Applying a lightweight interfacing would help with the migration of the lining, but short of that and/or using a walking foot it's pretty difficult to feed that much through a machine with any migration. It is in in the seam allowance, so it's not a huge deal, and I just trim it away when I cut the zipper tails away. I love my bag so much and I'm excited to make a few more to show them in different fabrics.
Nice bag!
Thank you!!!I absolutely LOVE how it finished.
Love it! Going to give it a try for sure.
Hope you enjoy!
I am inspired! Thank You so much.
You are so welcome!
Super video on how to make this gorgeous bag! I am going to go to your tutorial on how to make a zipper pouch then on to this bag!!
Thank you LuAnn!! Your such a wonderful friend AND viewer!
👊🤎👍🏿💙❣️🎈🤎💖💙❤️💕😍⭕️❌ your bag !!! Thank you for sharing and caring !!!!
You are so welcome
This is a cute bag and great tutorial. Specialty stabilizer could make this a cute lunch bag, long drive tote or picnic tote;) Thanks
That's a GREAT idea!! It is large enough for a water bottle which I should demo for everyone.
Love your bag. Good instructions. Thank you. Sandra B.
Thank you so much!
Great project.❤
Thank you! 😊
I make bags and totes all the time. If you don’t mind a suggestion, sew down both sides of your fabric straps for a more finished look next time. Love the fabrics you chose and what a great job!!!
Thanks Darlene!! I considered doing that, but in trying to get the video completed, I went with a quicker version. I'm sewing these things while I'm filming, and I have to work in between people coming over and managing daylight etc. It's very difficult to stop and start constantly and filming one project over several days. I'm planning a short video just talking about straps, so in that version I'll show the double stitching. For this project, I was on such a deadline I had to simply get it done.
Great job. Giving me confidence that I can sew a bag. Thanks. How’s it going with your mom ?
@@susandangelser9174 I'm sure you can do it!! Some days are better than others, but she seems to be stable. Thank you for asking.
So beautiful! I am always scared about fixing zippers. Thanks for the encouragment and will take your advise and attempt on the smaller project of yours before this one. I'm subscribing to your channel, Patty! 😊
I started making this bag for my sister-in-law, then realized that I don’t have anything to use for the lining or straps 🤦🏻♀️ so now, I’m waiting for the material to arrive from Fat Quarter Shop
Been there!!! LOL. I hope you love the result when you're finished!
