Wonderful directions! I subscribed and I’m going to Hobby Lobby tomorrow !
If they were open today you'd be the car! haha Have fun sewing.
Love the red and black combination it is perfect.
Thank you!
Good tutorial.
thank you!
This is one of my favourite video's. I have practised it with a cushion cover I had (non of the shops that sell crafting supplies are open due to Covid ). I'm not keen on the unfinished inner seems so I trimmed the waste away and covered with binding, It worked well. I had some very large buttons which I painted and attached to the outside for a bit of whimsy. Very good bag and tutorial. Thank You.
Thank you! I bet yours turn out really cute with the large buttons.
@@SewCutebyKatietv loved the idea of using the placemats. When you put the straps on, you should singe the edges(my preference)or use fray check to keep them from fraying. But really enjoyed the video. Thank you for sharing.
So stinking cute. I shared it. 💓🤗🐝🥰🦋😘🐞🌻
Thanks Lala
I would put Fray Check at ends of straps or zip-zag the edges to avoid fraying
You can also run the nylon straps through the flame of a lighter to melt it and heat seal it.
I would use sticky back.velcro
I just got finished watching your video on how to make the matching pouch for this pretty bag. This video answers my question and fulfills my request. By the way, for a bag this large, a chip wood or hard plastic board placed inside the bottom would be a nice way to reinforce it and maintain the shape. Covering the board with fabric or vinyl will add a finishing touch. Your projects are amazing! I’m a new subscriber. Thanks again for sharing!🙏
Awesome so glad I could help.
Agree! I made a quilted Tote Bag and I used piece of stiff cardboard for the bottom. 😊
I found cutting a cheaper almost vinal/plastic type placemat to fit the bottom of the bag (and cover it in a sleeve of the same material) works really well also.
Great idea to make items for craft fairs!
Cute
I was wondering how big this place mat is,
I altered mine so that it can be used as a walker bag by putting the straps across the opening and they are not all the way attached without a parachute buckle, when I make one for my wheelchair I sew to the other side instead of the parachute buckle
Great idea!
🥰
You don't have to line the bag if you want to hide the seams... what you can do, is simply sew some binding on the seams as you sew the seams themselves - two birds, one stone.
Yes another good way to make it. Great tip.
How long are the straps?
Can you use 360 glue
Really like your vido, what kind of material you have for your straps?
Another way to sew the side seams and bottom would be to overlap them and sew down each side enclosing them for a really finished look.
Yes that works also.
Thank you for this! I am wondering what machine you are using. I recently purchased a Brother Project Runway which is way confusing for my old brain. The settings boggle me. LOL
How much would you sell them for? So cute!!
This is something I know I can do
You can do it! Have fun sewing.
nice，
How large are the placemats?
Oh that's a pretty blouse, did you sew it?
Thanks but no I got it at Loft.
I make throw pillows from placemats.
oh that's a good idea.
How many inches did you use to see the sides? It did not look like you used a 1/4”.
1/2 inch
I WOULD PUT PLASTIC OR HEAVY CARDBOARD BOTTOM
Hello just a couple of hints I found it very difficult to see where you had sewn on the bottom of the bag. For the sake of tutorial only you might want to use a contrasting thread so it is easier for us viewers to see it. And I would reinforce those straps a lot better by sewing a square on the strap and the bag itself and then sew an X across the middle of the box, I hope I explained that correctly. But I never thought of using placemats to make a tote bag and I like the idea of using the webbing for the straps much easier thanks for sharing
I agree. If sew as suggested the straps won’t fray..
hello Katie very beautiful videos very nice please kindly film how to heam a pair of jeans using your beautiful industrial sewing machine please ok?please kindly reply back ok?thank you very much
I went to watch the video and it says that the video cannot be seen on my device. I always watch you on my computer. Not sure why this is happening.
I don't know what's going on. I get the same message but the part 2 video plays fine. hmmm.
@@SewCutebyKatietv I got to see the video today, hey! Great Idea and so fast!
