Hi Siah I am so glad that you show the entire construction of the bags you make. You show us one side then speed up the other side you don’t skip it you speed up the film it’s perfect. I so enjoy the care you show in your videos. I have see so many videos where they skip so much of the bag and them come back after every step is done. Thank you again for all your videos.
Thank you so much for those kind words 😊
You are amazing at taking a designers pattern and making it come to life. Even though you do some parts "your way" you don't change the sew order so much that it takes away from what the pattern designer intends. I love how you speed up when it makes sense but sew in real time when it comes to the parts that I am sure everyone wants to see how you accomplish it, like stitching the final top stitching around the top of the bag. As a pattern designer and lucky enough to have you do my videos I have to say that your one of the best out there. Thank you.
Thank you Elona ❤️
How much do you charge to make handbags like that I would like to have one karen May ps your hand bags are beautiful
Okay, as soon as I saw your bag, I immediately went and bought those strap connectors! Can’t wait till they get here!
I absolutely love this bag as well! Love the piping and the lining. It’s all gorgeous.
Omg, your intros are amazeballs, I always giggle everytime and appreciate the effort you put into it 😂😂😂 You’ve fast become one of my top fave bagmaking channels... and bonus... I had just bought this pattern on BF and I really like your example! 🤗🤗🤗 I just bought some 40m of some great “leatherette” bias in grey, black and a white so I’m fully stocked! I never follow bag patterns on the insides... I always just make a zipped pocket (usually for birthing thru too) and a slip pocket cos I can do them with my eyes closed now and it’s my style 🤗🤗🤗
😂😂😂 thank you so much!!
Such a beautiful bag with several interesting features! I love your color coordination, and the piping did give the bag an extra pop. A great tutorial, thank you, Cassiah 🧡
Well….I wasn’t sure I liked this pattern, but after watching you AND looking at all the other versions, I can see the diversity. It’s so lovely. I’m adding this to my list. Thank you Kassiah.
I’m so glad Cheryl! Thanks for the support 😊
Beautiful bag thanks God bless you
thankyou Siah, its a beautiful bag and stitched perfectly, Ive been watching your tutorials since you first started doing them and its great to see how much more confidence you are in them now from when you first started, I stopped making bags over a year ago now, I didnt make them to sell it was just for something to do , but I still love watching your tutorials, maybe this one might get me interested in bag making again, I like the style and shape of this, your videos are so clear on how to do things, and I like that you give advise on what you would do differently if you made it again. Thanks you so much for al the hard work you put into these, and for sharing it with everyone
I don't have a Kam press - I've been doing some research on it as I try to decide what to buy. I've heard some people say you have to use a bigger die than your rivets. For instance, if you have 8mm rivets, use the 10mm die.
Beautiful bag. I love your choice of colors!
Yep already sized up…. 😊
SiahSwag nails it again! Great video and beautiful bag ❤
Luv luv luv this bag!!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks for sharing
That is so beautiful.....omgoss I love it...love the gray with the coral color
Omg beautiful
I’m so glad you made this bag . I have been thinking about buying this pattern.
This is my next bag to make. Love it! Great tutorial!
This looks so good. I'm going over to purchase this pattern right now!
I found that by putting my rivet heads that show on the bottom plate and pressing the top one on the heads that are hidden helps a lot. I use the Green rivet press from Amazon with 15mm plates and I love it
You are an awesome teacher!
Love your bag n the colors are absolutely gorgeous. I LOVE YOUR VIDEOS.
Thank you so much!!
i love all your tutorials...you make everything looks super easy....now i only purchase a bag pattern if you have a video of making it...
Thank you so much!
great tutorial, Kassiah!...as always! I love the look of your bag...the piping looks amazing! Really pretty!!
Well done as you always do!
You could totally use up that big roll of ready-made black cotton piping that you bought on Amazon. Just lay it inside your vinyl strips, as if it was cording, and sew your own piping. You might need to trim it to the cotton stitching line but that is easy. Not wasted then. I doubt you will ever use cotton piping on a bag.
Thank you Kassiah! LOL I just purchased this one AND Kaya Papaya new pattern because of your awesome tutorials!!! You are my PRIME tutorial
maker LOL!!!!!
Awe thanks Kathie!!
Ooh, that is so pretty.
That Bag came out nice.. Good Job 👏
It's beautiful 😍❤
Really pretty
Absolutely stunning! If I ever get the chance to make this one I think I would like to try it with the piping👍 Great work🤩 as always thank you and stay well
Thank you Sarah!!! ❤️
kassiah, i had to purchase the cushioned one for my kam press! All is good. You can purchased a cushion one ☝️
Suas peças são lindas!!😍😍
1:20:06 I just finished the bag and I used a zipper foot butted it right up to the zipper (3/8”) and the zipper is still wavy. :/
I love this bag so much and your tutorial! Do you have to use zipper tape?
Hi Siah
Great tutorial and a super bag. You have also done a great tutorial on the Liberty bag from Needle and Anchor. Fairly recently Needle and Anchor have added an option to change the top closure to a zipper panel closure.
Do you think it would be possible to add a zipper panel to this Karola bag?
Thanks again for all the time you give for your tutorials, which are so helpful to novice bag makers.
I think the reason that they are making a mark is because there are different size die tops and maybe the one that you have is for an 8 mm not a 10 mm. Just an idea.
I have the same problem with my cam snap dies... I've started using the rubber cushion dies in my camsnaps press
Hi - where did you find the rubber cushion die?
I’ve been waiting for this one! Love it!!!! Do you think waterproof canvas is too structured for the lining? But love this!
No I used WPC on my first one and worked great!!
Try goldstar i got one wiht a plastic rubber thing that protect the rivets
wow il est trop beau
Would you share what nonwoven interfacing you used on your vinyl gusset pieces? Thank you
What a beautiful bag. Can this be sewn with a regular home sewing machine? I don’t own an industrial machine at the moment so I don’t know if my Brother will sew through the thicknesses of the vinyl. Cork fabric sews beautifully however. Any tips on this would be appreciated. Thank you 😊
Yes I was wondering...I have babylock brilliant machine
Great bag! One suggestion on the kam snap try using a larger die to set the rivets. I had that problem when my die was smaller so I got a larger one and now it’s good.
Yes I already have a bigger die on there 🤷♀️
@@SiahSwag hmmm that’s so weird.
Suas peças são lindas ❤️ Parabéns. Queria saber como faço pra conseguir as medidas ou o molde? Bjos
What rivet press are you using? There are so many out there.
😍😍😍
I love the video, really enjoyed making my one. Did u do the handle 4 inches longer than the large size handles
Yes I did them 28 instead of 24
Muito linda essa bolsa, Pena que não entendo o seu idioma😊❤
I love you videos! Thank you. Can I ask, how do you store your bobbins? I am trying to organize and looking for different opinions. Love, love all your bags
I just have them sitting on the side of my machine 😂
Could you advise what size cording you used for the piping? Bag looks great. Ordered it today. Thanks for such a great tutorial.
It is on my Amazon list www.Amazon.com/shop/SiahSwag
Your pattern pieces are always cut out so perfectly. Do you have any tips or tricks for getting really precise cuts?
Lol I actually just use my rotary for almost everything.
@SiahSwag @Teresa Everything Siah does is perfect!😊
What kind of thread do you use? You made a beautiful bag! I think this is one of the favorites you’ve made.
I use the Tex 70 bonded poly thread I sell on my website 😊 SiahSwagBags.com
Does anyone know what size cording she used??
I would like to know do you prefer the Chinese hole punch tool or the pliers hole punch and why?
I like the Japanese hold punch because I can get to the middle of a project. The other punch is great for straps where I have to do lots of layers. Hope that helps!
Hi Siah, have you done a tutorial for the Estrella? I can't find it 🥺.
Thanks
No I have not
I was watching Okla Roots you tube and she mentioned that if you use 9mm rivets, you should use the 10mm press so that you don’t get those marks. Hope that helps
I already do 😊
I love the shape, I wonder if you could size it down?
Yes for sure, I have seen it done at 85% and it’s awesome
Could you re recommend a place I can order my rival hole puncher the green thing
I got mine from Amazon, it is in my fav things list here www.amazon.com/shop/siahswag
What size piping did you use? Love your tutorials.
I made my own…
Kassiah, beautiful work as always! I have a Kamsnaps press and haven't had that problem - or maybe my old eyes don't see it.! LOL Have you contacted Judy at Kamsnaps? I know I have everything on hand to make this bag, except maybe the strap connectors. Do you think this would be domestic friendly with vinyl.? My machine can do about 6-8 layers of thinner vinyl - although sometimes that much with curves can create a problem. Beautiful, beautiful bag! As an aside, will you be carrying the large chunky zipper ends on your website?
No you can purchase those from Lauren Mormino though at MoreMeKnow.com
Is there enough room on the zipper tape to topstitch the zipper down toward the inside of the bag instead of up?
Yes I did that on my first one and it worked great
I see you use the bonded tex 70 Poly thread, do you also use that in the bobbin? or do you use something else. I want to make sure my purses don't come apart by doing it wrong. Thanks, V
Yes I use it in both, but that is because I have an industrial…. Some domestics can’t handle it.
I bought the Lauren special press from Gold Star Tool. She no longer recommends them. I was never able to make one hole with the press. I bought a Kam press and I use that for holes and Gold Star tool press to put them together. No marks on the rivets. You really don't need to press hard. That may be part of the problem. Have you contacted them about the problem?
I have purchased 2 presses from Gold Star with NO problems at all! I even purchased my Juki DU 1181N from them and was very pleased
You need a bigger die for your rivet press. I had similar problem. Get a die one size bigger than rivets. I have not had any issues since.
I already have a bigger die on there
I have the same problem with my rival do I need buy a whole complete set to just right with my rival to know what I'm doing
Someone mentioned to press it from the back and see if that helps. I’ll have to try that.
How do you cut out your pieces so precise?
I just use a rotary for most of it…🤷♀️
What are the scissors you’re using with the needle nose?
I think you are talking about the little Tula pink scissors I use…?
I live this bag. Is the pattern still available. I click on your link and it it wasn't

Buenas noches . Me encantan tus bolsos. Me podrias decir que material usas
Ella usa lienzo de agoldón and vinilo
Muchas gracias
A welt cord feet is a little better for the cording
Can you tell me about your machine and why you went with some other machine such as a Juki ? I have a semi industrial juki and it’s not great with say 4 layers of vinyl (straps etc) and I’ve got the hand made🥺 bag fever 😊
I mean why you went with the machine you have (we need an edit button)
I was able to compare and test out the Juki and the Kingmax and they felt totally similar, so I went with the one that was less $…. And I have not regretted that.
hi, im in the process of making this bag and I do have the same strap connectors but I am missing one of the screws do you by chance happen to know the size of those set crews so I can order some?
No I don’t.. I would contact who you purchased them through.
@@SiahSwag thanks for the fast reply. I got them at emmaline bags and just ordered another set
Could you tell me interface for vinyl you use like pink one or all vinyl in back please thx
I interfaced the pink one just because it was thinner
@Patricia Statham SiahSwag mentions she interfaced the pink vinyl with a fusible woven interfacing on low heat (wool setting on her heat press and only for a few seconds). SF101 is a fusible woven interfacing. She also mentions fusible fleece on the darker vinyl. Try to keep the fleece out of the seam allowance to reduce bulk. @SiahSwag, l hope I explained it correctly.
could this be made with crossbody strap?
Yes totally!
What is th weight of your canvas
11 oz ❤️
Hi Siah, I was wanting to ask if you would do a tutorial on the hippo clutch? Please text me or let me know so I can get this tutorial. You do great clean work. Thanks Sheila from Indiana
Is it Sfs101 husk asking
I don’t understand the question…
Buy dies for your kampess on etsy, i did buy there bc the original dies dented my rivets… etsy for the win 👌🏻🤓
Can you recommend a seller?
@@shannona6533 KKCStore 👌🏻 etsy.me/3yLQx42
Thank God for double sided tape lol
My KAM press also leaves marks, very upset about this considering I have over 300.00 invested in it and it literally ruins everything you press😡
I do not own a press, but is it possible to put a small piece of felt on the die so it wouldn"t leave any marks.
@@carolreiter6157 I think it is not designed correctly and if you don’t get the rivet exactly in the center it creases it.
Check out sailrites vinyl piping.
Thanks for the suggestion! I’ll go check it out!
Great video!
wow, hot bag :-) !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Lol thanks!!!
Press your rivets from the other side
Lol DUH RIGHT??? 😂. Great solution
I was taught to press the zipper first.
Yes I did do that actually
I hit it with some steam and let the zipper rest before installing it. Your bag is beautiful. I don’t even carry shoulder bags anymore, but I had to purchase this pattern. My plan which came to me while sleep is all leather. I have to just find the accent leather to go with this distressed leather I have. Still in the planning stages. I can’t get to cutting and sewing until early September anyway new lighting coming. Your intro is 🔥.
