Y'all are so amazing 🤩! I started with the soap saver bags because my daughter makes soaps. I've made the Teloujay several times! I'm newer to Bag making, so I need time to catch up 🤗. Blessings 🙏🌴
I love your tutorials! Have you ever thought to do a bag-along? Like a quilt along you could breakdown the bag making in four-five components. For someone like myself who works and has little time for making items.. these sew alongs to do projects as this help to complete in smaller sections and the sew along helps to keep my place. I dont have to figure out where I left off.
I am going to buy this pattern because it has a magnetic snap placement on it and I think all bag patterns should have the magnetic snap placement. thank you so much for this beautiful bag tutorial be blessed.
I Like that you do tutorials on either a domestic or semi industrial but I would love to see you do more on Beasty. I love watching Lauren because she sews on an industrial and I really enjoy watching industrial machines power through 😂 and some beautiful top stitching
Jess, you do great in-depth tutorials. And Jo creates amazing designs! What a great combination. Also, I really like your new table! Thank you for taking the time to do the tutorials!
Country cow designs pattern are the best!! Add Jess to the mix (best tutorials ever) and you get the most Awesome result!!!!! Thx for the tutorial Jess!! Ok, Ok. Ok. Going to go cut a Muerqo tote!!!! Thanks Country Cow designs!!!
I really like your tutorials,your camera work is fantastic ! The way you explain things even a novice sewer will have the confidence to “give it a try”. Thank you so so much,I really appreciate you 👏🏻👏🏻🌺
Thank you so much for these! Everything I have learned about sewing has been from you! Thank you also for briefly explaining the difference in machines. I’ve been struggling with my Singer machine and now I know why 😅
Would love this bag even more if a zipper panel could be added for top closure. I know it could be done just don't know how lol. Love the tutorial as always. I enjoyed watching you do it on a domestic since that's all I have.
I have a Bernina 440 (among other machines). This is similar to your Bernina used in the video, and the walking foot is amazing! I do prefer the Juki 2010q for bag making, especially when I use vinyl/faux leather.
Theresa, is this kind of Juki really working much better than the Bernina with a walking food for vinyl and those things? I ask because I thought the Juki 2010q is not a machine for heavier material and you MUST have an industrial like the Juki 1181 or 1451 to do such work. So why do you feel better on your Juki instead of your Bernina with the walking food? Or am I wrong? Is the Juki 2010q for heavier material? Sorry, if this question sounds stupid…, always thinking „yes, I need an 1181 or 1451a and „no, this is not necessary“ . Can’t come to any solution…
Absolutely love this. The good cork is far too cute. I’ve just cut out the pattern. I plan on making when in annual leave next week. Thanks for tutorial for the always lovely country cow designs.
Would you please share the materials you used for your first bag? Where was your vinyl from, what type of material was used (black) for the sides and handles? I love your tutorials and I’m looking forward to making a heavier bag. Thank you so much.
I love your tutorials! thank you for being so detailed! I do go crazy when you clip though, you don't always put the flat side down and the OCD in me goes nuts lol
Love the bag design and Awesome tutorial and that background music was lovely, had a Stevie Nicks/Fleetwood Mac vibe. I need to get my hands on that magnetic snap press too.
Lol Jess, for the first time I beat u to it ☺ I'm on my third one in making this bag. It came out so pretty like yours. Going to watch the video cuz I no I can learn some tips from u...Thanks 👍
I need a bag for my flute and a music folder, plus some other books, bottle of water. My flute can stick out, but the bag needs to be pretty stable so it doesn't fall over with the flute in it. I love this bag. I'm wondering if it would be big enough? If not, do you do another bag that's bigger with no center divider?
I love this pattern. Your instructions are great. I like that you put the seam width and stitch length on the video - i pause on that every time when making from your tutorials. I don’t see a link for the rings or strap ends, and I would rather purchase from a small shop if that is where you got them. Thanks for this great instruction.
You are the best at these bag making tutorials. Thank you for taking the time to share. I did purchase a Juki 1541s. Well my hubby got it for me last year for my birthday. I haven’t used it yet. I’m quite intimidated. I did watch your video when you had first used yours and it put my mind at great ease about using mine. I plan to make this very bag for my first industrial Juki project. I have a rivet press but not a hole puncher. Do you mind me asking where you purchased your green hole punched?
I love this bag! I love pockets on my bags too. I’m new to making these bags and you make it look so easy. It’s all the hardware you use that scares me. I’m not sure how to apply all the snaps closer and other hardware using that tool. Although, it’s a great video showing me. Thank you
Thanks Lana. That is encouraging to me with BabyLock se1900 domestic machine. I want to try this pattern with WPC on outside and inside and cotton for feature, but maybe will do marine vinyl on outside solid.
Hello I was wondering if you can make a 1940’s messenger bag tutorial called Brancaster Messenger Bag there’s a pattern but no tutorial 🤔 I’m a beginner and would love to purchase this pattern from you… I made several bags using your tutorials. Easy beginner friendly to follow. Thanks so much for all your tutorials
Thank you for once again for this tutorial - it helped me with choice of fabrics and method of sewing. Would like you to do the Konin Bag by Country Cow Designs. Keep up the good work.
OMG i have a few Swoon patterns i would love to see if you can do on your channel... there's the ANNETTE SATCHEL HANDBAG & COMMUTER TOTE, CHARLOTTE CITY TOTE & BLANCHE BARREL BAG.... I also saw two really nice ones from RLR Creations: TRENTA BUCKET BAG AND VESPERA TOTE W/ REMOVABLE POCKET POUCH. if you do walk throughs on this i am so there. I am looking for the perfect every day purse.. not too big not too small. these are amazing and you know Swoon so well. looking forward to more goodies.. thanks Jess
I just made this bag and it was perfect...until I sewed the drop in lining. I had so much extra exterior fabric! Any ideas what I did wrong or how I could have corrected it?
I’ve never seen a drop in lining done before, I can see why people don’t like them, has disaster written all over it.. Either way, the top stitching is my trouble area. I wish my Juki TL had free arm capabilities. I currently precariously perch my machine on a stack of big text books from getting my Masters in special Ed, of course, which I never used again. Oh well, at least they’re good for something. Great tutorial, ready to take a whack at drop in lining. 👍
Why is the stabilizers in the lining and not the main? I was jw if it’s gonna make a difference. I’m following the directions as the pattern has it but jw if the next one I put the stabilizer on the exterior of it’s gonna make a difference? Lol it’s just curiosity.
I love the vinyl that you’re using on the bag that you’re showing on your video do you sell vinyl if you do how can I see what you have and order some.
Hello! Your videos are great! I am learning how to sew and watching you videos has made me less intimated to use zippers now. One question, how do you cut your fabric so perfectly? Do you have a video on how to cut fabric? Thank you!!
This is a beautiful bag, and your video is amazing! I wonder if the pattern could be reduced in size a bit to make a smaller shoulder bag. Thank you Jess!
I love this bag! Thank you for the awesome tutorial!!! Quick question, last couple steps with the drop in lining - do you think you could bypass topstitching the 1/2 inch fold down and just let the tape keep it down? The reason being I don’t know that I could get the double rows of topstitching perfect enough once the final topstitching was done to connect the interior and exterior. That’s a lot of perfection pressure. :) thank you again :)
