Good video - I have bought this pattern and will try it, probably with Harris Tweed and faux leather or cork. Suggestion for top stitching at the end on your Janome. Take the table off, put a book under the machine to raise one end up, then top stitch from the outside (sort of like a free arm). I do this with my Juki and it works quite well for me.
I just bought my first pattern from you (this pattern) & I have to give a huge acknowledgment of appreciation on how in the first couple pages, you have each part of the bag with lines drawn to them in what part is what. So an example is “main panel” with a line and arrow pointing to it & it’s like that for all parts of the bag. I appreciate it. I sometimes call the zipper panel the “zipper panels” while other times in patterns I see it labeled as “zipper placard”. Obviously they are both the same thing but sometimes our brains have moments & get stuck on one name. I appreciate the layout 😊
Love this pattern and can't wait to make it! I just bought the pattern. Now to find some fabulous fabric and materials. Great tutorial and beautiful bag!
I love your bag designs and your clear, calm videos. I’ve just made your teloujay 3.0 bag for my daughters birthday and I know she’s going to love it. Thank you and please keep doing this. You and your husband are very gifted. Xx
Just bought several patterns from you and made this bag. Even on my Jack industrial it was hard work because i put vinyl on it, think i might stick to canvas and cotton next time. great pattern and tutorial thanks! lisa
Thank you for the great video. I learned some new tips from your video also. I can’t wait for your next video. I love this bag❤️ They way you did the handles is classy and stylish.
Very nice bag, love the green one! You mentioned Microtex and universal needles, are they also HLx5 type, like recommended in the users manual for this machine? For sticky vinyls I usually reduce the foot pressure to almost 1 when topstitching and it helps a lot, teflon foot included.
Congratulations Jo!! 🥳💫 I hv made the Lomexa, Momexa & the Muerqo. I want to make the Tredeka (backpack) & definitely this one. Thank u for the tutorial 🤗
Fantastic tutorial for this beautiful bag! What is the name of the heavier interfacing of the gusset, and what was the microtex needle that the double-sided tape won't stick?
The needle is just called microtex and made by a few companies. The gusset used peltex stabiliser but the instructions on the pattern come with some advice on other options
I always look forward to your new designs and tutorials - always excellent. However, I couldn't catch the needle size when making strap. I understood Microtex but the needle size wasn't clear. Thanks for the clarification. (:
Forgot something. lol When you make the adjustment for scant or regular 1/8 of 1/4, are you using any special guide on your presser foot or on the guides on the marked plate? It stays so consistent - I think I go overboard when it comes to getting good stitching.
No there’s no guides on the foot but I just try to stay focused on a specific part of the foot and make sure it stays consistent. it doesn’t always work but most of the time it comes out ok 😁
Wowzers Jo! This bag is absolutely gorgeous and your tutorial is -as always - excellent. I am definitely going to give this a go. Thanks! PS: always happy to see the hump jumper in use. :) I can never get the hang of it...
Thanks, this is the thread I like to use. I change up my stitch length depending on the part of the bag I’m doing, shorter for curves, but a size 4/5 for everything else littlestitchersews.co.uk/collections/thread/products/white-saba-tex-40-polyester-thread-1000m-1000
Thanks for responding and going to try the thread. It really looked good on the fabric and lots of colors. Cutting the pattern out …now to stick to a plan and get it sewn.
That didn’t translate clearly but if you mean the iron on interfacing, it’s available from Serial Bagmakers: serialbagmakers.com/shop/wovenfix2/ And the Decovil Light stabiliser is available from her too: serialbagmakers.com/shop/declight90/ Hopefully that’s what you needed 😁
Thanks! Your patterns are absolutely wonderful and I can’t tell you how very much I appreciate the video tutorials.
That’s so kind. Thanks 😃

That interior slip pocket design is Brilliant!! Another Fantastic Bag! 💙

Hi Jo! You are an excellent teacher. I love how you explain things and give good tips while you are sewing. I love your new pattern! ❤
Thank you so much
An excellent video!! Very well done and easy to follow!!
Glad you like it 😃
Hi Jo and Adam, and an other great pattern! I just bought the pattern and will make a great bag for my journey to Aruba next February.
Thats great to hear 👌🏻
Very nice bag, love the green one! You mentioned Microtex and universal needles, are they also HLx5 type, like recommended in the users manual for this machine?
For sticky vinyls I usually reduce the foot pressure to almost 1 when topstitching and it helps a lot, teflon foot included.
Thanks. At the moment I’m still using standard domestic needles as that’s what I currently have. Will be trying others soon though
BEAUTIFULLY created bag! 💜💜💜
That is a beautiful bag!!

Loved your tutorial Jo. So well done and always learn new tips from you. Your bag is gorgeous.

I always look forward to your new designs and tutorials - always excellent. However, I couldn't catch the needle size when making strap. I understood Microtex but the needle size wasn't clear. Thanks for the clarification. (:
I used a size 90 for straps.
Great tutorial love the fabrics
Thank you 😃

really great looking design!
Thanks 😁
Yoga blocks are brilliant under the hd9 to make it a free arm
I’ll be trying something like that very soon 👍🏼
Love this bag!
Hi is there a wee tutorial on doing the rivets?
Gorgeous Jo. Thank you.
How do you come up with names for your bags by the way love all your tutorials.
Thanks. A lot of our names are taken from the Cornish language, a local language spoken where we live
Wowzers Jo! This bag is absolutely gorgeous and your tutorial is -as always - excellent. I am definitely going to give this a go. Thanks! PS: always happy to see the hump jumper in use. :) I can never get the hang of it...
Thanks. I’d be lost without my humpjumper 😂
Beautiful new pattern. How are u finding the hd9, I found it strange that I can not move my needle xx
Yes that’s strange, plus figuring out the tension 😂 but I’m getting there…
Great job !
Beautiful!
What a beauty! ❤
What stitch length are you using and what type of thread. Your top stitching is great! Thanks
Thanks, this is the thread I like to use. I change up my stitch length depending on the part of the bag I’m doing, shorter for curves, but a size 4/5 for everything else

Is Tex40 a thread that can be used in a domestic machine for bag making?
It works brilliantly in my domestic, for both the top and the bobbin. Perhaps it won’t for every domestic machine, but it certainly does for mine 😁
bonjour
pouvez vous me donner la référence du thermocollant que vous mettez pour le tissu extérieur et pour le tour ? merci
