I’ve been looking for an unlined drawstring bag tutorial for ages and this one is excellent. I wanted help on how to make the drawstring section well below the top edge using a single piece of fabric and this shows how! Thank you 😊

@alandacraft Месяц назад

Glad to hear it was helpful 😊

I have just sewn my first project ever on my brand new machine using scraps from old threadbare Peter Alexander PJ's - thanks a million for the easy to follow tutorial, it's such a cute bag....AND I MADE IT, it's a revelation! ;-)

Thank you for sharing your talent with world. You take the time to explain each movement in everything you're sewing. And I LOVE to hear you talk. LOL. I am from the USA in South Florida in a small town I grew up in. And we do not have any fabric stores in the whole county . I do alot of sewing. I learned to sew while in High School. And I am 69 years young now. I love watching you and many others and learning new things. God Bless you and continue sharing with the world. Thank you. And people say I have a southern accent , but I don't hear it.LOL

@alandacraft 6 лет назад

Thank you so much for such lovely comments Elizabeth. Goodness This really made my day. I couldn't imagine not have a fabric store to while away some time in. I'm guessing you shop online. Fabric.com have a lot of lovely fabrics. Good to hear that you love sewing, It's such a worthwhile and fulfilling hobby :)

@srahiam 4 года назад

Always be careful with frixion pens on things you make! The pigment disappears with heat, but comes back with cold. Careful with totes and things you could be making to sell, if you mark something on the right side it could always come back!

@alandacraft 4 года назад

Thank you Sarah. We do stress this issue on the website, but it's always good to have it re-iterated. If goods are being made to sell or show then I would think twice before using a frixion pen, but for projects for myself, friends or family, I use them all the time. And I actually haven't had a problem with the line showing even though I do live in a cold climate.

@mary-anneburt6411 3 года назад

I am a novice sewer about to learn knitting! I love this tutorial but how do you re-size to make it larger - sorry if this is a daft question.

@Studio7t7 3 года назад

There's no daft questions :) You choose what size you need it to be finished and add seam allowance. According to these instructions you'd add 1.5" to the top for the fold over channel and 1/2" to the side for the seam width ways. Hope that makes sense!

@alandacraft 6 лет назад

Thank you for your comment Cherryn. Happy you liked the tutorial. I also prefer to have the seam down the side. Although having it down the middle does allow for using up some scraps of lace to cover the seam, :)

Wonderful idea, have plenty of lace and ribbon scraps.@@alandacraft
