    I just finished this bag ! Only took 6 straight hours😅 But! It is the first piece I have ever made that I am proud to sport around. I am beyond thankful for your efforts in making such high quality tutorials and releasing your patterns at no charge. My great grandmother had introduced me to this craft in my early years, and my grandmother is also a creater. They have both sold at farmers markets making their living and developing my skills in this hobby is my way of connecting with them although my great grandmother has passed. Please, continue doing what you do :)

    I haven't sewn in over 45 years, but I was so inspired by your video that I asked my hubby for a sewing machine for Christmas! I ordered my kit and was so impressed by how professionally it is put together! Going to start sewing this weekend, wish me luck!! Thank you, too, for producing such an informative and thorough tutorial... you make it look sooooo easy!!

  • @harshadha874

    Just made this bag myself as my first solo sewing project and I really enjoyed it! It was super easy to follow and I made minimal mistakes (I was expecting a lot more given how my sewing adventures so far have gone...)
    Also in case anyone else is using a fabric with a pattern on the right side; while sewing the pocket on, make sure the pattern is on the outside !! I thought I was being smart and flipped it so the wrong side was facing out and ended up making a white tote with the pattern on the inside

  • @Imohadah
    @Imohadah Před 3 lety +8

    Completely obsessed with your bucket hat pattern. I just got it, and I have over 5 different fabrics I'm going to mix match. Now I have a pattern for a matching tote bags. Love your explanation and content.
    I will definitely be sticking around. 🔥🔥

      A question is you are using fabric scissors to cut the canvas as well as paper pattern so oops. Probably as so boxy and flat canvas. I trim commercial tissue patterns close to edge when I seperate pieces before placing on fabric so minimum chance of precious fabric only scissors cutting paper. You are great, any youth would love to intern with you.

    Really good video, easy to flow along, however I did have some issues with the pocket as I used fabric with a pattern so I had to unstick some parts. If you have a pattern make sure to sew the pocket to the outside of the bag as you will be pushing the pocket threw the pocket hole.
