What an adorable bag! I almost bought that pattern.... another time! I bought the Vivian & Brooklyn patterns instead. I was so surprised at how completely different a bag looks using different hardware and fabrics. It can turn an "ok" bag into something amazing. I have just started watching and made my first bag a week ago, so I am still learning. But I definitely plan on investing in rivets and a press down the road.
Just finished my Lola bag by Swoon thanks to your great tutorial with tips etc. My main fabric was stretch jersey, interfaced with F220, Decovil heavy for the base interfacing on mirror look PVC (has a soft back) and mirror-look handles, front pocket trim and tabs. The lining was a thick waterproof fabric. The bag took a bit of muscle to turn through but it went OK and the bag had enough structure to stand up in perfect shape. Thanks for letting me share your journey with this bag - the most professional-looking bag I’ve made so far.
I am now the very proud maker of a Lola bag. I would not have been able to do this without your guidance. But, I want you to watch the pocket installation by Simply Classic. Hers is the best way to put in that from pocket. My goal is to make an all vinyl Lola lined with cotton.
Why am I not surprised that it has been claimed, it's absolutely beautiful 😍 I have this pattern for a very long time, now I have to make it 🤗 U stike again Jess! N the list goes on 😆 Thanks a mil
I have been studying this pattern for days now and I love your teaching. I’m all in. I’m really paying attention to the interfacing and the connectors.
Thanks much. I made this today. My first bag with cotton Lycra and I love it! I extended the exterior zipper pocket to fit my phone. Very clear and concise pattern at a great price. Highly recommend. Love the hidden tabs technique and the security and bling of the rivets. Another Jess home run!
I just made this twice. One has silver circle handles from Sallie Tomato . It I used the Disney Princesses in pallet grey toile fabric and the lining is a 100 percent polyester that I did a sublimation of the various characters of the different people incensed moves. You also found a clip are if a young girl with long blond hair that would have passed as my niece. It was a gift for her special s day so I had to put her monogram and a wish list quote on her slip pocket. I think it would be right up your alley.
I just ordered a Janome HD9 ….. I can’t wait to make some bags with it. Thanks for the tutorial - I’d never have thought of trying this bag but you make it seem achievable
Love,love, love this video, pattern and your fabric choices. You make it look so easy. I think this might be the only Swoon pattern I don't have, so off to buy. I'm going to try it with cotton lycra. I'll let you know how it goes.
I love your tutorials. However I think Swoon could improve their front zipper installation instructions. I could barely catch the pocket to the remaining zipper. Had to scrap it and start over. And just so you know 😃 when I want to make a new pattern I always look to see if you did a vid on it. Good job Jess!!
Jess, how do you change out your blades and make the blade stay?? I have this cutter too for the fine points of cutting, but I cannot get the blade to stay in. Any help would be wonderful. Loved the video, I bought this pattern a while ago. I really like it. Thanks Jess. Have a wonderful day
Great video Jess. Does anyone know how to steam the vinyl that she mentioned in the video? I'm guessing it isn't an issue but I'm starting this bag soon and am unsure about that part of it. Thank you!
Not sure if you see these questions or not but I have a juli 2010Q workhorse like you do how does it do with the fusible interfacing that you use on the fabric and also how does it do on different zipper tapes
Been wondering for over a year where you get your metal bag tags? As I want to make my own bags and the metal bag tags just add that little something extra, rather than a sew in label!
Jess do you know what the name of the nightmare before Christmas fabric that is?? I would love to find some but I am not sure of the name of it... Thanks for the tutorial
It’s from Knitorious! I have a link the description for the shop, but it’s not always available. She runs a lot of prints in May, so I preorder and stock up then 😉
What is the most affordable rivet press to buy and where? Im a home sewer wanting to have rivets on my bag but not a reseller needing high quality. Help!
Omg, I need to make this bag lol. What is the name of the Star wars fabric? And which site did you get it from? Strangely enough I have both a SS only semi-industrial (Pfaff twin to the Janome), but I also have an older Pfaff Triptronic 2040 that seems to be way more powerful for going through super thick layers than even the semi-industrial. Can't beat some of these older machines and that Duel feed walking foot.
So that is the floral wars, it’s not currently available. They do an amazing preorder with SO many beautiful options every May, so that’s when I stock up.
@@traceytowner176 yes as Jess replied, it is not a current retail. They only do preorders for may 4th. You can try to find some in the BTS fb group periodically
Just ordered the pattern after watching this tutorial! If I put a zippered pocket in the lining, I could use the method where you sew up the entire bag (leaving the bottom of the zipper pocket open), then pull the whole bag through the pocket, right??
@@OklaRoots Thanks! I love your tutorials. They make me feel like I can make whatever you’re making if I just follow along with you. I appreciate that (and you).

Such a great teacher your explanation of the pattern pieces and every thing else was awesome thank you
I love your tutorials better than any other! I almost won't sew a bag unless you have the tutorial for it! Thank you so much! Don't stop!
Ive learned to add my Decovil BEFORE my shapeflex. The shapeflex helps keep that decovil from coming up on the edges.

THANK YOU JESSICA 🤎🤎🤎again another FANTASTIC ONE!!
Awwww thank you!!
I’ve seen several tutorials on making this bag. Your’s is by far the best. Thank you for being so detail orientated.
A fun chat to listen to and watch! Thank for posting!
I just completed my first Lola bag. I love your tutorial. Thank you so much for sharing!
Congrats!!!
Thanks for another great tutorial! I used my Cricut Maker to cut the pocket trim perfectly!

SO HAPPY to see swoon on the channel again!!!
Heck yea!
Omg PERFECT TIMING! I have just bought this pattern a week ago! I’m so excited to make it!
Woot woot!!
Jess, you’ve done it again….I’ve had the pattern for a while, now I can’t wait to make one!
Yay! I’ve had this pattern for years! I’m glad I waited to make it, I learned a lot from others.
Your bags are so adorable!! Thank you for a fantastic tutorial 😊
Awww thanks Laura!

I have been eying this pattern. I was hoping you would make this one. Thank you! Thank you! Thank you!
I love your version of Lola!!! Beautiful job!
Very good video…step by step…impressive…thanks.
Yay!!!!! Finally! I have the pattern and have been waiting for you to make it.
Thank you - I’ve just ordered the pattern and will try it in cotton Lycra.
Beautiful bag, I’ve been making a few makes with cotton Lycra, as it comes in great prints. Thanks for another fantastic video xxx

You got this!
❤️ these bag tutorials! Would love to see you tackle a sash bag.
I love your 🎄bag… great ans awesome job, Jess❣️Thx for your tutorial ❣️😘😘😘
Love the shape of the bag 💗Love the fabric!! 😍 Like the strap ideas 💡
Check out Jessica’s zipper installation using her zipper templates. It worked better for me than the pattern instructions.
Love it! Anxious to use the CL with the Decovil. Thanks for the tips!! Hello
Always good to see you!
awesome bag !!! love your teaching !!! Thank you :)
Great tutorial! I’ve seen Lauren make it as well and always loved it! I have to make one now.💜
Love,love, love this video, pattern and your fabric choices. You make it look so easy. I think this might be the only Swoon pattern I don't have, so off to buy. I'm going to try it with cotton lycra. I'll let you know how it goes.
i have this pattern thank you so mich for the video!! ❤❤
Thank you!
Another great tutorial! Could use heat transfer vinyl around the zipper pocket xx
Oh my God, it's beautiful😍
Great tutorial! Thank you 😊
What’s the best beginner bag pattern to make? I’ve used a sewing machine before but never made a bag! I LOVE your bags,your so talented!!
I love your tutorials. However I think Swoon could improve their front zipper installation instructions. I could barely catch the pocket to the remaining zipper. Had to scrap it and start over. And just so you know 😃 when I want to make a new pattern I always look to see if you did a vid on it. Good job Jess!!
Love the bag!
I just found your page! I need this fabric
Sooooooo beautiful 😍
Loved the video
Your cotton /lycra might be a knit, but there are a lot of cotton/lycras that are woven, like stretch denim!
Beautiful bag, thank you for sharing, the fabrics are adorable , where you buy you fabric?.
You could just unhook the short straps diagonally and hook them together to create a crossbody strap.
Great tutorial! Can you tell us how you treated the raw vinyl edge of the zipper trim please? Did you leave it raw?
I found it interesting that you made the front the side with the zipper pocket. Seems like that would be the back. I guess that is just me!
I seriously need that fabric..
Jess, how do you change out your blades and make the blade stay?? I have this cutter too for the fine points of cutting, but I cannot get the blade to stay in. Any help would be wonderful. Loved the video, I bought this pattern a while ago. I really like it. Thanks Jess. Have a wonderful day
Perfect 👏👏👏👏
Could one use the gutterman all purpose thread for this or is the thicker thread needed?
Great video Jess. Does anyone know how to steam the vinyl that she mentioned in the video? I'm guessing it isn't an issue but I'm starting this bag soon and am unsure about that part of it. Thank you!
If I make this out of soft vinyl, and the lining with WPC, do I need to use stabelizer at all?
Have you tried the new light, medium and heavy woven interfacing from Emmaline Bags? I’m waiting to hear what you think about it!
No I haven’t! I’ll put in an order tonight, I’m super interested too!
I wonder about your iron and decovil light as I have never had any issues with either my steam press or iron with it directly on it
Not sure if you see these questions or not but I have a juli 2010Q workhorse like you do how does it do with the fusible interfacing that you use on the fabric and also how does it do on different zipper tapes
Wallet tutorial to match the purse please
Jess, What iron is that. Looks pretty nice. Looking for a new one. thanks.
Olá eu quero comprar o projeto dessa bolsa. Obrigada
Why wouldn’t you “L” both sides of the top zipper as opposed to putting the zipper tab on one side?
could you use french terry instead of cotton lycra? ty
I just realized that my pattern does not have the triangles on the bottom. Do you know why or how I can update my pattern?
I am in love with the floral starwars fabric and can't find it anywhere 😔
Been wondering for over a year where you get your metal bag tags? As I want to make my own bags and the metal bag tags just add that little something extra, rather than a sew in label!
Hey Jess, great video. Question regarding Decovil. I live in Mexico and cannot get this product. Would Pellon Craft Fuse be a good substitute?
Jess do you know what the name of the nightmare before Christmas fabric that is?? I would love to find some but I am not sure of the name of it... Thanks for the tutorial
Amazing video as usual! Thank you Jess. What brand is your vinyl marker please?
Thank you! The vinyl pen is from Moremeknow.com, but it looks like she’s sold out. Here’s another option: amzn.to/3w6tkcJ
Can you put handles on sides instead
What is a good quality replacement for decovil light or heavy?
what size for swivel hook and D ring
Where did you get the Star Wars material? Stunning!
Love the Star Wars material…hope it is available!
It’s from Knitorious! I have a link the description for the shop, but it’s not always available. She runs a lot of prints in May, so I preorder and stock up then 😉
I was expecting Christmas music with the Christmas fabric.
Beware, because it’s a knit, cotton Lycra can and will snag. I got a 2” run once when I was ripping out some stitches so be careful with unsewing.
😁”Unseeing!!”👍🌺🤙
Where do you typically purchase your fabrics? You have so many super cute fabrics for your projects! Thank you for all of your awesome tutorials!
I will buy fabric from just about everywhere! If you’re looking for lots of available now prints check wondergroundfabrics.com/
I have fabric I want to use but it's cotton. How do I waterproof it?
WHERE do you find waterproof canvas ???
Where do you get your metal supplies?
Could this be made with vinyl on the exterior?
What is the most affordable rivet press to buy and where? Im a home sewer wanting to have rivets on my bag but not a reseller needing high quality. Help!
Hi DisneyGirlJamie, look at KAM Snaps…they have plastic snaps, rivets, the die cuts, and the rivet press.
Do you know where we can get the pattern? The website doesn’t work.
Thank you for letting me know! Here is an updated link: swoonpatterns.com/lola-domed-handbag-5.html

The fabric is floral wars from KNITorious :)
Hi Jennifer, I searched, but it doesn’t come up….
@@traceytowner176 same here :( searched under just floral, floral wars and nothing :(

What denier is your wpc?
Just ordered the pattern after watching this tutorial! If I put a zippered pocket in the lining, I could use the method where you sew up the entire bag (leaving the bottom of the zipper pocket open), then pull the whole bag through the pocket, right??
Yes exactly! And then that last seam is SUPER hidden!
@@OklaRoots Thanks! I love your tutorials. They make me feel like I can make whatever you’re making if I just follow along with you. I appreciate that (and you).
Jess where do you get those cotton lyrca to purchase
I have links for the brands in my description. These specific designs may not be available, but others might
@@OklaRoots thanks jess I have this pattern over a year now and never made this bags but now I will try by watching your tutorial
Hi, jess! What size are your purse feet?
Is there a link for this bag?
Yup! It’s in the description of the video, here it is as well: swoonpatterns.com/shop/lola-domed-handbag/?ssp=799
Is this Jack bag claimed?
It will be in my shop soooooooon 😉
