Lovely bag, perfect for a prom clutch without the strap!
Perfection. I love watching your videos. I’ve made one of these already as soon as you posted it, and now I’m making another using recycled jeans. I will post them soon. Thank you.
I have just finished the Harley - it is my first attempt at a proper bag. Thank you so much for your clear instructions, and tips to make the process easier.
Thank you so much for this free pattern. I just printed it out and watched your video tutorial. Superb stitching with lots of tips and guides to make a beautiful, professional looking bag. Especially, thankful for the mention of the wide mouth sliders. I have the regular ones and made a strap for another bag, and it does not work. I thought I did something wrong. Also, on the boxed corners, I always encounter the same issue, now I know it's not me and what side to stitch from. You are truly amazing and so talented,🥰 and I appreciate that you sewed this bag on a domestic machine, since that's what I have.
I just watched your video, fabulous, and then I discovered the pattern was FREE- Oh my that was wonderful news. printed it out and going to make this asap. thank you again
I so appreciate you going over how to install a turn lock. I am thinking about doing one. This is so helpful!
Beautiful job Leanne 👏👏
You have great tips for removing bulk from seams that I haven’t seen before in other videos.👍🏼
I'm a bit late to the party 😂🎉 Thank you so much, a great tutorial 😊❤
Thank you Leanne. I love your tutorials.

Awesome tutorial looking forward to making one, thanks for the pattern very much appreciated 🥰
Gorgeous!
Love your bags !!
Great!
I love your fabric choices! The bag is simple yet elegant
thankyou so much 💓
Amazing. Love it.
Love the bag! Wondering if you can give advice on how I can add a recessed zipper to this bag. Yes I want a zipper closer and the flap!
Great fabric choice and tutorial for the Harley crossbody bag, what form do you use and needle. Thank you for sharing
So cute!! I can't wait to make this!! I am wondering, if I use decovil light rather than foam, should I clip the corners of the decovil?
I haven't made one using decovil myself but I would cut the corners yes to reduce some bulk where its not needed
Great bag and tutorial. How long and wide is the strap that you made?
awesome sew......can you share where you get your materials? the vinyl, thread and etc? what kind of machine you are using? your top and bottom stitch is so perfect
Hiya, I use moon thread on my Janome HD9. This one is made using faux leather and quilting cotton
What is the best stabilizer for this, especially with vinyl? Decovil or foam?
What type of fabric and which needle size did you use to sew it? Thanks.
This is a mix of faux leather and cotton. I've just used a standard 90/14 size on my machine
Thank you - would that be the same as marine vinyl?
In your directions on page 12 there is an abbr. DST. what does that mean?
Double sided tape
Hi Leanne.This bag looks lovely.How do i get the pattern if i dont have facebook ?? hanks Nicky
I have emailed the pattern to Sew Modern Bags. Hopefully they'll have it up on their site within the next few days
@@craftedbyleanne1549 Thank you so very much
Good news, it's now up on Sew Modern Bags website sewmodernbags.com/product/harley-pouch-free-with-video/
Hi Leanne. Wondering if you could advise on interfacing please? I'm planning on using a cotton and a faux suede that has a sort of soft thin cushioned back and is fairly flexible. If I use woven interfacing on the cotton only, do you think it would be ok once I add the foam, or do I need something else to structure the cotton do you think? Thanks in advance
Interfacing will be perfectly fine with the cotton, no need for anything else and the foam will give it the great structure
@@craftedbyleanne1549 thank you for your quick reply!! I look forward to making this.
Thanks for the video Leanne, can I ask if you have any recommendations on where to get foam from ?
I get mine on the roll wholesale from S.e simons and it works out nearly half the price. If you can find a wholesalers and use a lot of foam I do recommend it
What kind of sewing machine do you use? The one I have struggles with multiple layers.
I now have a HD9 as I know it will sew everything I need it for
What kind of thread and how much tex?
Very nice. Thanks! What machine did you use?
Hiya, I have a Janome HD9
What type of thread is used to sew vinyl and artificial leather, and what is its number? Can I find it on Amazon or Ali Express?
I use moon thread, you can get it from amazon as a multipack of colours. A lot of people do use tex threads
@@craftedbyleanne1549 thank you
Can you tell me what kind of thread you use, and the stitch length?
I use moon thread or gutterman. On my machine I use a number 3 to sew together and around a 4.5 to top stitch
@@craftedbyleanne1549 Leanne. Moon thread is what type of thread? Polyester? Tex size tot size? Needle size I guess size 16? Topstitch or Learher? Thanks from Australia.
Love your tutorial. Can you please tell me what that marking pen is you are using?
I use a frixion pen. I would however advise not using on fabric where it will be visible
What size paper do you print this on ..I did regular letter size but the pattern seems a bit small
What device did you try and print from?
@@craftedbyleanne1549 I print from a printer
Sorry I mean, do you print from a laptop or ipad? certain phones and tablets do not print to size but make sure you print at 100% actual size
@@craftedbyleanne1549 I downloaded the file to my email and then I forward the file to the printer shop then they print from there computer..
I would check the test square, if it is wrong ask them to print it again
What is mat under your sewing machine called x
I cut up an old thick yoga mat. It works wonders on my ikea table
Can I ask Leanne where you get your vinyl?
I get my Mora faux leather from Sew Hot. Emmaline bags also stocks it
What foam do you recommend
Personally I like to use Style-vil
When you place the flap on the body, how much space should be on each side of the flap? I think my flap might not be wide enough
Going on memory I think 3/4" either side of the flap
I was thinking about making a “ one” piece flap and front panel…due to the pattern of the vinyl. Would this work by taping the pattern pieces together and just making one cut?
For the flap you can just use the flap lining piece. For the bag body you will need to cut off 3/8" from where the centre seam would've been and cut on the fold or tape 2 together 😊
@@craftedbyleanne1549 Thanks so much. I have some LV vinyl and didn’t want to try to match up the seam.
@@craftedbyleanne1549 Would it work if I took both front panel pattern pieces , place together and cut 3/8 where the seam would be then tape together? I have a LV vinyl and don’t want to cut two pieces and try to match. I’m a newbie lol
Or do I just tape the two body pattern pieces together and cut as one. So sorry to confuse you
@@craftedbyleanne1549 I think I understand…you mean tape the left and right body pattern piece together. If I do this do I still need to cut 3/8?
Soooo, I cut 3/8 off the right body pattern piece and also the left before I tape them together to cut my vinyl?
