The pieces you cut out would make a cute pocket on the front!
the message below is from my nearly-10-year-old granddaughter.
thanks for posting this video 😊 I embellished it with machine embroidery and used it to earn my Maker badge in Girl Guides.❤
I ended up making 3 of these, one for my remotes, one for my special needs son's collection of torches, and one with matching cups with markers and crayons (as well as a ream of paper) for my niece's first easter! They're so adorable!
One more idea as I thought about this basket. I put a guest basket in my guest rooms with little treats & things they may have forgotten. This will be perfect for that! Thank you!
I just love this little bag. I’m going to make one and embroider my great grandson’s name on it
What a great idea with using pinking shears around the curves. That’s going to be my new cutting for the curves.
I did it, it's very good, especially for small curves
I made two of these this morning for Easter for two granddaughters ages 9 & 8 1/2. They loved them. Thank you for this simple and easy tutorial.
💝✂️ I discovered a way to sew faster and easier even as a beginner, I talk more about it in my channel, I hope it helps those who need it. 🌺😍
Wow! I love that you dont waste all that time at the sewing machine. It makes the instructions go so much faster. Easy to understand and get going ! Thanks!
Hi Laura, just reading your new book Sew Very Easy Patternless Sewing, which arrived this morning here is South Wales UK, and love it. 😍😍 Two things immediately stand out for me; 1) how many of the patterns can be used to make other things. I.e. the sewing machine cover, with very little alteration, can be a food mixer cover. Or made smaller it becomes a toaster cover. It is always a big plus in my book when one pattern can be used in many different ways. 2) It is an ideal book for teaching youngsters about sewing and quilting. Many of the patterns can be made up quickly so a child has the satisfaction, and joy, of making something and seeing the results in a short space of time. 😊😊😊😊
Noswaith dda! My husband is from Bridgend, his family is from Porthcawl, Swansea, and Cardiff 😊
@@RebelAlliance42 I live just 10 miles from Bridgend and Porthcawl is just a few miles further on. I was born in the Rhondda brought up in Cardiff now live near Pontypridd, after a number of years living in London. Love how quilting, and especially Laura’s channel, can bring people together from many different places. 😊😊😊😊
Which one please, from Belgium. Thank you
This is just the cuteset little bag. I am going to a pot luck this weekend and want to bring a little hostess gift. Not sure what to fill it with - maybe two small potted plants - one on each side... Or bulbs for her spring garden. Thank you Laura.
What a great wee bag perfect for the grandchildren’s easter hunt thank you for sharing
Seeing this I thought this would be a cute way to store hair ties and scrunchies.
Laura, your videos are always so easy and you explain things very well both verbally and demonstrated. Thank you for the brevity and editing; makes them easy to watch and to find the part of instruction I’m looking for when sewing.
The bag is adorable and would also be great to give to new moms filled with diaper changing needs. Thanks for another great tutorial!
lady, you have to be without a doubt THE BEST INSTRUCTOR EVER...... Thank you. Keep doing what you do so well.
Thank you for this video. I would be careful making the handle any skinnier. Getting all the fabric with interfacing back thru the hole didn't go so well for me in fact it didn't go . Make the basket bigger not the handle smaller. ♥️ Sewing 53 years still learning!!
It looked ok before I turned it right side out but no - handle was too short and the bottom was misshapen. Oh well. It was just something to try. On to something else.
This is just what I need to take my crochet/knitting along to doctor offices and other places. Thanks for a lovely idea! No more yarn in plastic shopping bags!
Great idea and great video, as usual. Funny….I happen to have that exact fat quarters! We can’t find …or use…plastic bags any more. Not allowed. I have to admit I really miss them, but never thought of using them for my yarn.
Nice as a gift for chemo patients. Fill with comfort items. Hand lotion, mints, etc.
Bonsoir, Laura ! je suis très heureuse de vous avoir rencontrée, vous et vos tutoriels. Je sens que je vais me remettre un peu à coudre... Tout semble si simple, avec vous. Un très grand merci ! Je suis une mamie de 75 ans, dans le sud-ouest de la France. Have a nice week !
I absolutely love this! I sat down and made two right away! Don’t go too narrow on that handle. You have to get the body and the interfacing through there and it was thought enough with the 2” gap. I have four more fat quarters picked out! Thank you so much, Laura, for sharing this with all of us!
Yes, I used fusible fleece, just because that's what I have at home right now (I couldn't wait 😆) and it was a bit of a challenge turning it through, but not impossible, and it's a short distance, luckily, but the thinner handle could be done with very light or no interfacing, I imagine... and these quick, easy projects are my favourite 😊
I jusr found out about the handle, because I trimmed my circle on the outside so cut off my stitching. I decided to restitch it but ended up with a tiny handle. I’m starting a new one now
@@warialdasue I nearly did that today! Just stopped myself in time!!
Thank you for this beautiful and quick project. I made mine with fusible fleece to add more body. I wouldn't recommend anything heavier as turning it through the handles would be difficult. It came out perfect! Also, I stitched the handle cut-outs together - then sewed the two circles RST , turn & topstitch. Voila! made myself a small mug rug. Perfect for going to our community's coffee socials. Bonus! and no waste.
I'm thinking about how to adjust the measurements to be able to use insulated batting and use to transport baking dishes. Then the handle cut outs would be perfect pot holders.
@@randibgood The InsulBrite I have doesn't seem to be any bulkier than the fusible fleece, so I don't think that would be a problem. Just need to figure the fabric dimensions. I like your potholder idea too!
Yeah! I have a bunch of fat quarters, I am going to make some for my stitching friends. Thank you Laura, inspirational as always. Looking forward to more of your wonderful tutorials.
Hello! I hope you have had a cheerful day. I had a busy day in my sewing room too and now I'm sitting with my hand quilting to watch you! I hope you have a great week ahead and I'm looking forward to your next video! Thank you for sharing!
These are the cutest little bags! I think these would be adorable in a baby’s nursery to hold small items…hair bows, etc. so cute!!! Thank you so much for this short sewing tutorial that I will be doing soon. 😍
Hay I am Pakistan I good job
I made one like this in my Grade 7 home ec class. I used it for a shoe bag.
Thank you for this! My mother used to make these over 50 years ago, I still have one and never ever thought it was cut the way you have shown. And I have been sewing for more than 50 years! thanks so much. :)
Laura, I am having great time making 40, yes forty little Valentine themed Fat Quarter Totes for my great grandchildren's Valentine Party's at school.
I enjoyed pulling Valentine fabrics from my stash and was amazed how many different ones! Kids are so excited to share and I'm shocked my Valentine stash is still bountiful!! Thanks for great pattern. Blessings, Dawn
Thank you Laura for this wonderful tutorial. This is perfect for me to prepare some little Easter gifts stuffed with goodies for my grandbabies 😍
I was wondering what kind of easter baskets to give my great grandchildren. Now I know! Thank you for sharing.
Perfect little bag/basket for our young flower girl to throw petals from at my daughter’s wedding. Thank you!
Laura, you are an amazing teacher! I love your tutorials. Very thorough. This bag is so cute. Thanks for sharing. ❤️
Love this tutorial! Thanks! Easter baskets came to my mind as well, my 4 grandkids would love it.
I sewed one this morning! I made mine bigger and inserted a round bamboo handle before closing the sides and bottom. I'm now sewing a matching zippered pouch to slip inside for when I want to use it as a purse, that way I feel more secure that what I'm carrying won't spill out. Thank you!
Lovely little bag Laura just right for my craft table
💝✂️ I discovered a way to sew faster and easier even as a beginner, I talk more about it in my channel, I hope it helps those who need it.🌹💕
I had some fun with this and am going to experiment with the size because as soon as I saw this bag I knew it would solve a bitty problem I have: something small to carry my hand embroidery and hoop. While following your directions I had a thought. Well actually, I had several but only tried 2 of them. One was to take the fabric that was cut from the handle and turn it into a pocket (I used it on the outside of the bag) and the other was to use a contrasting fabric and make a traditional slip pocket on the inside. While they both worked well, anyone else considering doing this would be best to add the pockets after turning the fabric inside out as the bulk of the pockets made it a bit harder than it needed to be. As for placement, I assumed 1/4" seam allowance and so placed the pockets 1-1/2" from the bottom cut edge and centered. For the slip pocket, it finished at 8" wide and 2-1/2" tall and was placed in the same manner. Thank you, Laura, this is fun and the next step is to figure out what size fabric I need to have it hold my 8" hoop.
Laura, OMG you have created a monster LOL. I am making lots of these little bags and am using them as Gift Bags. I wrap the presents as normal, and then handing the present over in one of these little bags, which is a gift in itself and can be used again rather than a bag being thrown away. Being kind to the environment. Thank you for a lovely video Laura.
Cosmetic bag !
My daughter's dog comes for a day of doggie day care sometimes, if she is away for quite a few hours. This little bag would be great to keep her doggie kong, ball and treats that I have on handy for her. No more searching around for things.
This is so clever! I am going to make 2 Easter baskets and mail them to my kids in college.
Thanks Laura, I made one this morning after watching your video. My daughter is a knitter and she will use this bag to hold two balls of yarn.
As soon as you showed the little bag I instantly thought of a gardening bag to hold gardening hand tools, however it would probably need to be in a fablon fabric. Love it. Thanks for sharing x
Perfect timing! I just got a yard of fabric to make a thank you gift for a nurse. I’m using your DIY scrub pattern. Now, I can make this of the same fabric. I’ll use the sweet bag instead of gift wrapping it. Thank you.
Beautiful!
I just made two for my kids for Easter, they're easy, and way too cute! Thank you!
This bag is sew cute, I have 3 Great Granddaughters I’m making these for them.
This was really cool!
Such a cute bag! My 2 year old granddaughter will LOVE it!!
I love this! I can see making it as a basket for silk or paper flower bouquets. Great for any type of gift basket. Fill it with anything for a special occasion, Get Well, birthday, hostess gift, any holiday! Make it with novelty fabric that fits the recipient's personality. Unlimited possibilities! I have to make one today! I know my granddaughters would love an Easter basket from this also. Thank you SEW much! Love your videos!
Awww...so cute. I can just see my little granddaughter carrying around all her little treasures in this little tote bag. And it's so very easy to make! Thanks!
Fabulous. Thank you ☺️
Very cute!
It looks a bit tricky to do. It's one of those projects I have to think about awhile. I ran into the same thing when doing vest panels many years ago. My brain keeps telling me "it can't be that easy". Magic tricks! Isn't it funny! Thanks for the vlog, I'm going to go prove to my brain it works by making one!
Sue Pfeiffer:I know just what you are talking about. My very logical brain keeps going over the picture with pattern drawn and comparing to finished product. Then says no way that works. Isn't it ridiculous what torture we even do to self to sew. This bag is just too cute.
The first time you have to turn it right side out you have to do it through the handle which was quite a struggle for me. You have to roll all the material up to push it through. Since I get pain in my hands I doubt I will make another. They are cute though.
I’ve made 2 of these and your instructions are spot on. Thank you.
Thank you for another quick, adorable project! Your videos are so easy to follow!
Never fluff videos coming out of you! Functional projects
OMG, cutest bag ever! I can see filling it with sample-size hand cream, soaps, lip glosses, candy, incenses, flower seeds, and other treats for surprise "goodie bags" for friends. I'm heading to my studio to make one for an aunt.
Just finished one this size. It'll hold 3 half-pint jam/jelly jars. 😁
Love this. Made for my grandkids last year. They turn out cute.
Oh my goodness Laura, I love it! Thank you so much.
Absolutely fabulous! Now going to look for your new book. Thank you from Debbie and Dexter-Dog my silly, shy, rescued Chihuahua companion living a quiet crafty life in southern California. 🙏👍🌈🏄🏡🚴🎃🌻🌲💐💝😄
Thank you so much Laura! This Easter Bunny needs to get busy making these little bags.
This would be awesome for sunscreen and bug spray in the car during the summer months. Cleaning cloth and spray cleaner caddy, organizing socks and underwear in drawers, hair products, any beauty products! Salt and pepper mill holder, tomato sauce and mustard bottles... Oml it could hold a couple of jars for pens and crayons! The possibilities are endless! This is the perfect project for the fat quarter bundles I bought recently, sew easy, thank you!
I just made my first one and it's gorgeous! I used a fleece interfacing, because that's what I've got at home, so the bottom seams are a bit too bulky to sit my salt and pepper mills in, but you bet I'll find another use for it! So I'm off to my fabric supply store this week for some thinner stuff lol
Great bag! This would be perfect for me to carry small items while using my cane!
I a, trying to make these today. It’s my first real project.
Thank you for this cute little bag. I enjoy your calm straight forward instructions. So easy to follow.
That’s just perfect. I found some super sweet Easter fabric in my stash.
I would use that bag for various art and craft projects.
How fun! Love this project! Thank you for sharing.
💝✂️ I discovered a way to sew faster and easier even as a beginner, I talk more about it in my channel, I hope it helps those who need it. 🌺😍
So cute! Going to make several as gifts for goodies!!
That is adorable. You always make the cutest things..
Love this! I will have to watch several times to make sure I do it just right.
Thank you Laura for this great little bag. Clear tutorial, beaut idea. Of course I want to make more!
Very cute! I plan to make some for my Grandchildren. Thanks for this super cute idea. 🐣
Another great video thank you
Cute little bag ! Thanks. 💗💗💗
So cute, just made one up, really lovely design, I’m sure I’ll be making them for my granddaughter in a years time, can see her now toddling around with one all cute in her Easter dress with her bag to match. Thank you 😊⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️
What a great basic pattern, which can be made any size, it seems. Thanks.
Super cute! I need a little basket for my new Granddaughter - this is perfect!
Thank you so much for your podcast. I love your bag. I will make one for myself and also give away to friends. All the best.
My first thought is to make one for each sock in progress. Very cute!
Great little bag perfect as a gift
As always Laura , thankyou x, very very handy little bag to make , l can see many reasons why l will be making lots of theses , ( from Australia )
Just too cute! I think even I can make this! Thank you!
What cute fabric. Love the little bag
This is so much easier than another basket I made some time ago. I'm thinking of making a bunch of Christmas-themed baskets to fill with fat candles as hostess gifts.
I love that fabric, so cheerful.
Just made 3 of them. Going to fill with Easter items for gifts. Thank you!
How wonderful, Laura! I have a bag like this that I bought for knitting, because I didn’t think I could make it! Your tutorial showed me I can! I am ready to make some for Easter! I love them! Thanks so much!
Perfect timing!! Making one in the morning! Hubby is in hospital and keeps misplacing phone, remote, bed control.. going to d-ring this to the side of his bed
Absolutely darling! My next project!
I think I would save the two half circles you cut out and make a cute little pouch out of it, so that way you could have two items out of one fat quarter....
Wonderful! Thank you
Love love love this easy and cute bag!
Yay!! I’ll use it for cosmetics as we have. Small bathroom
Thank you, Laura. Easy, cute and useful... Just what I like! ♥️🧵✂️📍
