love this one Diane, thank you x

OMG, fantastic pattern Di, thank you. I have just purchased it. I am sitting thinking, I have to go out to Slimmimg World meeting soon or shall sort out some fabric for this pattern. However, best be sensible for once 😂 thanks again and have a great weekend Di

I love that you always show how versatile your patterns are! ❤

I’m not usually a fan of totes- but this one is just beautiful!! ❤️

You look as beautiful as your bags today! Love the hair! Love the way you put on that handle too! Will try to make this!

Such a lovely new pattern. You are so supportive of all designers. I admire that so much in you and your business. Congrats once again on a successful launch.

Love the option of a "pack away" bag!

Ingenious!!! Another awesome pattern! Can’t wait to make! Thanks Diane! 🥰

I would’ve liked to have seen a finished bag with piping! But very helpful, ty!

Can’t wait 🎉

Where do u get pattern?

Thank you for this tutorial. I would like to know what to use for lining for waterproof canvas. Thank you.

Avid sewer. New knowledge is wonderful. Just picked up some leather work tools, one (a Pony) needed a cover, no problem-made one. It was ugly, two 90 degree corners, UGH! I searched square corner, wrong vocabulary and no hits. Then! Lightbulb moment. How to sew corners on a tote. Bingo! You popped up. Wonderful. Couples views of your video, over to the machine with my squares. Outstanding tutorial. The process worked on the first try. Marvelous. I looked you up for a subscription; found you and in my eyes I think you are much prettier with longer hair. Thanks so much. TaTA

Really useful. Thank you 😊

Thank you my set from TEMU arrives hopefully Tuesday

I can’t wait 😊

Where's the lamp post? It's neat that you have a spare oom

Just found you. Excellent video - thank you. Just what I needed 😊

Where did you get that stiletto? I want one!

I've been making box corners in so many different ways I can't count them all. This is so obvious yet simple. Thank you. I will have perfect box corners on the new bag I'm about to make for my sister. It's my ffrst attempt with Harris Tweed.

I have a question about cork. I bought cork at my local fabric shop. A good brand name or so I thought. (Sallie Tomato) It appears too limp. I will use the HTV to firm it up. Can you recommend a good cork, vinyl or faux leather in the US? or online?

Brilliant 👏

This is a brilliant idea. I was just complaining that I cannot find a bag that works for me. I have prescription glasses and sunglasses. I’m constantly switching them. I want easy access but want good protection for them as well. This is perfect!

Thank you Diane!!! Your work is always unique and your techniques are just absolutely fantastic! Great pattern! I will have to think about putting these in my shop (you know 'storage solutions' are the name of the game now!!!!! :-).

When u mentioned using the end of the needle, I felt relief. Other persons just makes it look like it's a sin to focus on ur needle. They all say focus on the presser foot. I know presser foot works best on straight lines, but focusing on the needle helps better when sewing curves. Thanks mam

Brilliant! I'm about to begin my bag making journey and this makes so much sense and takes a lot of mystery out of taking that first stem. I feel really confident to even start designing a simple bag to see how I go! Thank you SO much.

Thank you!!

Lovely easy case to make, on my 5th ❤

Excellent

Would this bag work out of leather and stitching by hand? Thanks.

See, this is why I watch tutorials even if I already know how to do/make something - you never know if it's going to be a new way of doing it. This is so much easier than the "measure from the stitch line and cut a square" method - such a PITA to get those squares perfect! - and much more accurate than the "flatten it out & stitch across where it looks right" way that I've been guilty of more than once. Excellent tutorial; thank you for posting it.

thank you so much, really clear tutorial

En castellano X FAVOR

All that i can think is WOW when you said fast to make thought no way and now i want to make one. Thank you

This is so cute and easy. Next project for me!

That was so interesting Diane, thank you so much!!

Do u glue the glasses case or sew it on

Hi Di, good evening This is a great idea. Many people have glasses just for reading. What a super idea to keep them with a book you're currently reading.

Excellent! Thank you

Love your work and just had to bell subscribe - how could I not!! 😊. Thank you for sharing ❤❤

Is the pattern still available

Thank you! This is so helpful

Already subscribed 😊

What a brilliant idea! I hate having to dig around for my sunglasses all summer long.

This is genius!
