Jess is by for the best in making tutorials, I have seen many others they don't come close to Jess's skills in teaching she is so explanatory. and shows you all the patterns pieces and what is required of them and than shows how to put them together which may seen trivial but in some patterns it can get confusing like in some BY Annie patterns, I love By Annie patterns too but they can be challenging. I have been sewing and making bags and many other types of Items for 50 + years so if you getting started in bag making she is the best person to watch. Thank you Jess love you
I have been making bags, mostly By Annie, for several years and still learning. I have been introduced to so many different bag designers and businesses because of you. Your tutorials are the best I have seen. Love that you let us “sew” with you showing us how you use your tools. Your verbal instructions while putting the bag together, even your admissions of mistakes, are inspiring letting us know that mistakes happen and can be fixed or just accepted. You are AWESOME and I want to thank you for being you. ❤️
I am a beginner at sewing bags and I have just found your sight thank u for sharing your lovely free pattern I have enjoyed watching your video you are a very good teacher thank you again
Omg, I do too! My husband even asked me what I was smiling at once when I was watching 1 of her videos. He didn't "get it" but I'm glad other like minded people do haha
😱 OMG!!! I was wounding why Jess haven’t make any free pattern anymore, and then you BOOM💥 again ! I have seen this cute bag but was not sure if I should give it a try. Definitely I will do it and fallow your tutorial for sure . It’s hard to believe you are not in my brain 😂 Thanks again 🥰
Love your videos. For getting the quilt cotton to lay flat around the zipper (or anywhere) when you iron it down use a clapper to cool it. It gives it memory.
Thank you so much for these videos. You break things down so easily and I have had the courage to make bags I didn’t think I was capable of. When I see a pattern I love, I check to see if you have a video for it!
This is great! Thanks for not only showing a free pattern, but as always, the awesome info about putting it all together and extra tips we might not get if we’re new!
OMG I literally just cried over this bag!! I can not get it to save my life...about to watch your tutorial I'll write an updated comment after I'm done❤
I just had to comment and brag that I got this baby yoda bag via the OklaRoots Elite Patreon group….and OMG… the video does NOT do it justice. This bag is so phenomenal and will be my new go to bag when I move down to Orlando next month. The construction is flawless and it’s SO structured I couldn’t even believe it. It would be hard to guess that this was handmade. You definitely do not need WPC for the lining if you are worried about it being structured. It seems perfectly structured without it. Love it!!
Your tutorials are the best! You make them enjoyable by all levels of bag makers and always give such creative inspiration. The 70’s retro music made me smile every time. Thanks again!
Fabulous bag! For spine health, I was told to carry a small bag, never more than 5% of my body weight when fully loaded, and this looks perfect for me.
All your tutorials make me want to sew! Even things I’m not sure I can, lol. That said, I have tried and made things because your tutorials give me the confidence to try. You have a wonderful way, okay I’m gushing, of explaining, offering hints and tips that make so much sense coming from you but that just aren’t so clear when reading a pattern. I hope you continue and that I’ll have access to your videos for a long time. Pretty much a beginner but getting better thanks to you. Thanks for all your hard work. I for one REALLY appreciate it.
I made it and love it. I was able to top stitch the gusset facing the seam inward and it lies much nicer and looks better and has more shape to it . The only thing I would change would be to make the lining a tiny bit smaller as it seems a bit loose and baggy inside. Thanks for your fabulous tutorial and all your videos.
You finally made this adorable bag. I was waiting for you to do it and was bummed yo hadn't done it yet, so had to find someone else, eventually I did and made it. I love it and use it everyday. I used faux suede type of fabric with quilt cotton for the lining. The strap is made of the faux suede as well. I think I did a pretty good job. It looks BOHO Chic! Let me know if you want me to shoot you a picture. I also want to let you know that you are my most favorite tutorial youtuber. You make everything so easy and simple to follow with clear instructions and suggestions. Keep up the good work and keep the bags coming!
I love the bagstock patterns and having this tutorial is great for us visual learners. Thank you Jess! I haven’t tried this pattern yet but I have made 3 of the Sunshine bags with the crossbody strap. I will be trying this one next.
I wish I had this video a few months back when I tried to make this with Decovil and Vinyl. New to bag making and my machine would not sew those side gusset areas. Complete failure!! Now I will try again. Thanks so much.
I’m a day late in watching as I was working yesterday. Oooooh this is so pretty. I was about to go and get the pattern when I realised I actually had it. Bagstock patterns are absolutely amazing definitely some of my favourites. Thank you and Paula for the tutorial. Xxxxx
You are the best teacher. I’m in the middle of making this bag and I cut the gusset interfacing shirt beca I was afraid of the thick seems. You made a point of saying the interfacing should be the same size. Should I cut new fusable fleece interfacing? Before I sew it together?
I did this one today....I literally took all morning... just finished..this patterned lined up...and on the D rings I made them slightly bigger to ensure they wont fall out... but on the front tab I didnt see where she noted that I should insert the Male part of the snap as I was closing the flap so when the purse finished I was stuck... I had to cut the point of the flap and square if out...I was depressed but the change turned out good and I'm in love with this little guy...
There a couple of us on here, wondering how you interfaced W.C. with the fleece, would it melt or something? Lovely tutorial, many thanks.. keep on doing BAGS! Love em!! 💘
I've found it easier to put the lining inside of the outer when I'm sewing them together. You just have to reverse the insides and outsides. Just a thought. Thanks for the wonderful videos, I love watching you. You have taught me so much.
I do this. Seems to make sense that the larger outside should be outside when you are joining bag and lining. I just don’t know why it isn’t always done this way - I keep wondering if I’m missing something so I’m glad to hear that I’m not the only one who does it!
Jess! Hey, I used to live in Jax! Now in NV... LOVE your videos! Have you ever thought about making a "tips and tricks" video about working with waterproof canvas???? I just bought some (cause you have me sold!) and would love to hear your thoughts about uses, cleaning, and just plain working with it. Thanks for the great videos, your enthusiasm is AMAZING!
Wow! Love your tutorials! You explain really well. I am a beginner in making bags and you've made the process very easy for me. Thank you so much! Could you also do a tutorial on the selene and ilaria from back stock designs.
I've watched 90% of your videos, they are inspirational. This is the first bag I've made that comes together perfectly. However, I have a question. After assembling the bag, can I turn it out through n slit in the lining rather than the interior pocket slit?
Jess I just bought a Juki to make hand bags and I know im going to start using rivots also. I will need to buy one of those rivot presses and kit. I have no idea on how to decide which one to purchase. Will i need one with several die to use several size rivots or is one size good for most projects? I love your tutorials and all the awesome things you have made. I love how you cover all the little details in your videos. Thank you
Where was this a month ago when I made this bag?! What I learned doing it was I definitely should only be making bags when Jess is there to talk me through it 😩
Ooh cute pattern, how'd I miss that??!!🤔 Also, loved Paula's guest appearance, hi Paula👋 I hope she wasn't named after someone who just always "sticks" around...you know the one.🤣🤣🤣
Jess I love your tutorials, you are great! Question......I may have missed it if you stated it, but, can you use faux leather or a vinyl for the exterior front and back bottom pieces! I want to make this bag like.......NOW and that's all I have available. Thanks for your great teaching tutorials!!!!
Greetings from Germany. My english is Not so good, but I hope you understand me. This ist a wonderful Bag and your Tutorial ist great. And Special Thnaks for der Hack withe the masking Tape. Have a great time
I'm new to this all but this bag is EXACTLY what i'm looking for however I need a small pouch in the back like the mini swoon bag? would it be easy to install that?
Hi Jess,I was wondering if you would do a tutorial on the Elegant all day handbag? By Sewn Ideas. It is such a lovely handbag…… I am going to do this pattern, it really is cute. Thank you for your videos. They are wonderful. Chris
Hello this is Maria from Miami you made beautiful tutorial and I see your tutorial unboxing Tula pink machine 770 And I want to ask you what is the different between 770 and 570 is a lot or not please let me know , because I baying my machine , but a need to be sure have a good choice thanks MariaC
Jess, I love your tutorials! I have zero experience with waterproof canvas. Can you tell me how waterproof canvas is different from duck cloth? Is duck cloth a suitable alternative for bag making and strap making?
So duck cloth is a thicker cotton material, but it can still fray. Waterproof canvas has a plastic coating on the back of the material. So no fraying at all.
Thank you so much, I'm so glad that you have made this tutorial. I find I can do things when I have someone show me how and I have the ability to watch section by section as I need it. I've had this pattern downloaded for a while now but hadn't printed it out as I couldn't a good tutorial for it - I've no excuses now! There is another Bagstock Design, the Marina Unisex Crossbody Bag, which I really like the look of but can't find any online tutorials for . . . that might be a gentle hint in the hope of a future video 😉
Have you ever used Odicoat on the quilt cotton?? I’ve heard so many people using it for bags when going to the parks to protect against the rain! I’d love to try it!
Can someone help me on printing the actual pattern pieces? I’m using my Iphone, and when I click on the pattern link in the description it takes me to the materials needed and instructions for sewing but I don’t see any actual pattern pieces.
I’ve birth the bag from the straight part of the side. I’ve also put the lining into the exterior (reverse the bags from what is in the instructions) and fold the tops down by the allowed seam allowance and sew. You may have to sew two lines to make sure it’s secure. I sew one at 1/8 and the second one at 1/4. Hope this makes sense.
Jess is by for the best in making tutorials, I have seen many others they don't come close to Jess's skills in teaching she is so explanatory. and shows you all the patterns pieces and what is required of them and than shows how to put them together which may seen trivial but in some patterns it can get confusing like in some BY Annie patterns, I love By Annie patterns too but they can be challenging.

You are so bubbly and enthusiastic that I find myself smiling throughout the tutorial. Love you and your tutorials. Your two bags are so cute.
Omg, I do too! My husband even asked me what I was smiling at once when I was watching 1 of her videos. He didn't "get it" but I'm glad other like minded people do haha
I feel like I was, literally along for the ride 😆
So far with your wonderful videos and instructions, I have made 2 Acacias, and 1 Sunshine bag. Thank you so much!
😱 OMG!!! I was wounding why Jess haven’t make any free pattern anymore, and then you BOOM💥 again ! I have seen this cute bag but was not sure if I should give it a try. Definitely I will do it and fallow your tutorial for sure . It’s hard to believe you are not in my brain 😂 Thanks again 🥰
You know the nicest people! 🤗❤️
I've been looking EVERYWHERE for star wars zipper pulls!!!! Ahhhhh.. I'll be right back! Super excited!
Thank you for this tutorial, far easier to follow than the pattern for me. Great demonstration and enthusiasm ❤️

Thaankuuuuuu jess🎉
I made this bag yesterday. It turned out awesome.
Such charming purses! Thank you for sharing your talent and ideas!
Love love this bag. It’s perfect for everyone. And so many design possibilities. Love your videos and bagstock patterns.
I made it and love it. I was able to top stitch the gusset facing the seam inward and it lies much nicer and looks better and has more shape to it . The only thing I would change would be to make the lining a tiny bit smaller as it seems a bit loose and baggy inside. Thanks for your fabulous tutorial and all your videos.
I thought about topstitching the gusset…wish I would have. I also think the lining is too baggy.
Paula's debut is a hit! Stellar performance! 😂😂
I would say she’s excited, but she knew she would be a big hit way before I did 😂
You finally made this adorable bag. I was waiting for you to do it and was bummed yo hadn't done it yet, so had to find someone else, eventually I did and made it. I love it and use it everyday.

I came across the free pattern months ago and downloaded. NOW I will sew it! Love your tutorials!

Beautiful Bag.
Such an adorable little bag!! It will be perfect for my preteen granddaughter ❤ Thank you, Jess, for a wonderful and helpful tutorial!! 😊
Ooooo it really would! Let me know how it goes!
So excited for this! Great job, Jess!
Thanks Suzi!
Wow! I love this pattern! I just finished making one this morning!
Isn’t it the best?
@@OklaRoots yes it is! I love it! Thank you so much for your tutorials!
There a couple of us on here, wondering how you interfaced W.C. with the fleece, would it melt or something? Lovely tutorial, many thanks.. keep on doing BAGS! Love em!! 💘

I’m glad you posted this. I was just wondering if my 9 years old niece would like one made for her. Your daughter has answered my question! Thank you!
@@leslieeubank2400 I'm so happy we were able to help😊
Great video awesome little bag
Ooohhh i love this pattern!!!❤️❤️❤️
Wow! Love your tutorials! You explain really well. I am a beginner in making bags and you've made the process very easy for me. Thank you so much! Could you also do a tutorial on the selene and ilaria from back stock designs.
I am looking for suggestions for a small travel size bag making machine. Love the video and your energy!
I've watched 90% of your videos, they are inspirational. This is the first bag I've made that comes together perfectly. However, I have a question. After assembling the bag, can I turn it out through n slit in the lining rather than the interior pocket slit?
Didn’t notice the scrap until it was pointed out…even though I new you mentioned it on Instagram hahaha, too busy looking at the cute bag
Jess I just bought a Juki to make hand bags and I know im going to start using rivots also. I will need to buy one of those rivot presses and kit.

Greetings from Germany.
My english is Not so good, but I hope you understand me.
This ist a wonderful Bag and your Tutorial ist great.
And Special Thnaks for der Hack withe the masking Tape.
Have a great time
I made one with cork and decovil light 😬😳 its stinking cute but was a beast to turn out
I'm thinking I will do the pen pocket just a tad bit bigger to fit my sunglasses so they won't get scratched. Perfect!
Jess, do you switch out your microtex needle and topstitch needle each time you need to topstitch.
I'm new to this all but this bag is EXACTLY what i'm looking for however I need a small pouch in the back like the mini swoon bag? would it be easy to install that?
Hi Jess, I’m making a bag with a gusset, but I’m not sure if I need to cut it on a bias or straight.
Please, advise. Thanks!
Hi Jess,I was wondering if you would do a tutorial on the Elegant all day handbag? By Sewn Ideas. It is such a lovely handbag…… I am going to do this pattern, it really is cute. Thank you for your videos. They are wonderful.
Chris
I need to cross bags n comfy with curves beauiful👌👌
Hi my favorite bag lady. I have a question do you wash your washable fabric before you make?
I am going to make the bag but i want to make it a tad bit bigger that way the stuff in my purse now can fit in it!
Are the woven interfacing pieces the same size as the fabric pieces or do I trim them?
I would love to see a video of little foksa bag if possible. I enjoy watching your videos
Adorei,muito linda!!!👍😘😘
Hello this is Maria from Miami you made beautiful tutorial and I see your tutorial unboxing Tula pink machine 770 And I want to ask you what is the different between 770 and 570 is a lot or not please let me know , because I baying my machine , but a need to be sure have a good choice thanks

Can waterproof canvas be used instead of vinyl or do you have to add stabilizer?
Have you done any patterns from Countty Cow designs? I love her work.
Jess, I love your tutorials! I have zero experience with waterproof canvas. Can you tell me how waterproof canvas is different from duck cloth? Is duck cloth a suitable alternative for bag making and strap making?
So duck cloth is a thicker cotton material, but it can still fray. Waterproof canvas has a plastic coating on the back of the material. So no fraying at all.
Big thanks to Paula for hanging out! 😆
😂😂 she was really hanging in there!

I've had this pattern downloaded for a while now but hadn't printed it out as I couldn't a good tutorial for it - I've no excuses now!
There is another Bagstock Design, the Marina Unisex Crossbody Bag, which I really like the look of but can't find any online tutorials for . . . that might be a gentle hint in the hope of a future video 😉
Will fabri-tac from beacon work l8ke tge 3 in 1???
Hey Jess! Cute bag! Seems kind of small for my purposes; do you think it would work at 125%? Thanks as always for the video!
Ooh, that increase seems ideal!!
I definitely think you could do that!
Does anyone know if this bag is an appropriate size for a 3 year old?
Have you ever used Odicoat on the quilt cotton?? I’ve heard so many people using it for bags when going to the parks to protect against the rain! I’d love to try it!
I have used it & it works well. More water resistant than fully water proof. I have to use a Teflon foot on any fabric treated with odicoat too
I haven’t used it, but I’ve had a jar in my room for over a year. I really need to give it a try!
Can someone help me on printing the actual pattern pieces? I’m using my Iphone, and when I click on the pattern link in the description it takes me to the materials needed and instructions for sewing but I don’t see any actual pattern pieces.
If you were to trim that flap edge with pinking shears, would you still need to snip the edges?
I was wondering the same thing....
Where do I find the free patterns please.
If in only wanted to use quilt cotton for the exterior what would I fuse it with?
Woven interfacing (like Pellon sf101) and fusible fleece (or decovil light)
Bealtifull
Peça linda. Queria que tivesse legenda no video pois não nada de inglês. 😅
Does Joann Fabrics sell waterproof canvas?
@disneygirljamie they do not. I've only seen duck canvas, cotton canvas, oilcloth
Is there any other way to birth the bag beside the inner pocket?
I’ve birth the bag from the straight part of the side. I’ve also put the lining into the exterior (reverse the bags from what is in the instructions) and fold the tops down by the allowed seam allowance and sew. You may have to sew two lines to make sure it’s secure. I sew one at 1/8 and the second one at 1/4. Hope this makes sense.
Thank you so much
I really love your teaching,one thing you need to help me with is measurements, please try to be given measurements thanks
It's not her pattern, free or not, she can't give you the measurements.
Thanks Mercy! All of the measurements are in the pattern.
my flap is shorter than the back piece as yours looks longer havent got any other pieces
That ‘pen’ pocket would also work well for your chapstick…
