Most of us would fall at these things to. The Internet just creates such high expectations that are rarely achieved! Even things that maybe look extremely easy may not be. The point is to encourage not criticize.

Unwrapping….Same each color…. 😠

Amazing

I love seeing how increadibly proud you are of what you made. Makes me wanna try something new too to gain just that feeling. How hard would it be to make a fannypack do you think?

I LOVE how excited you are about making this bag! Great job! I love that bag it’s beautiful!

Just do two it three tubes of wool n tie the top.. so many hats in the shop have a tied top! And your perfect at making pom poms for the top.

If this is your first time having roasted marshmallows then you must try s'mores! 2 Graham crackers with the roased marshmallow and chocolate bar in the center as a sandwich

I can't laugh without it. Hurting it was so funny watching your face. Try to figure out inside out for the lining. It looks good.

Well done sweetie xxxxxx

I think its great. Absolutely love the multi coloured material. Xx 👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍👍

Ant that is bloody brilliant for a person who hasn’t sewing lessons. I had lessons and it’s better than I could make my lovely. Seeing you so proud of it is wonderful and rightly so that you should be so chuffed with yourself. You have done yourself proud. ❤ How is your nose now ? All healed I hope and what were the lab results nothing horrible I hope ? I can’t wait to see what you make next sweetie ❤❤ 👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻👍🏻

So so proud of you! You're really learning so much! Also agreed that stuff you make yourself is always better and more special than anything you can buy Great work remembering to add hemlines to the pattern, and to start cutting at the edges of the fabric! You did a great job connecting the lining and awesome work remembering the double fold hem on the lip of the bag! I'd say putting the more waterproof layer on the inside was the right choice. Just makes more sense usually for the handles, you can always do a top stitch along each side of them to sew them flat, if that makes sense. Normally you could iron them too but not sure if this fabric would melt or not Pins are tough, I never got the hang of them so I use clips too. Even my friend who is good at pinning prefers the clips for a lot of things We have a needle cheat sheet for what needles to use with what fabric. I could always send that to you on Instagram if you like! Also congrats on your nose thing being removed! I hope it never comes back

Oh good, I thought, he's got the sewing machine out again. Sorry, typo, I meant 'Oh God!!' 😜 I think you'd need a special 'foot' for your sewing machine, called a walking foot, for that type of material (oil cloth I think it is from your description). Great thinking and working out stuff out, and doing the prep. You did an AMAZING job Ant. Agree re the handles, but who cares! You made that bag yourself, and it's FAB. Off to Tesco you go for some posh apples lol

That came out awesome! I learned how to sew by sewing barbie clothes 😂 my mom was a saint and had way more patience than i gave her credit for!

I love it! it came out so good Ant! you did right making the more rigid/waterproof fabric the liner. you want it to do the work of keeping things from leaking and keeping any messes that could potentially happen out of sight. and the outer shell stays pretty and shows no sign of the chaos inside. Kinda like us anxious people! lol! My first ever unsupervised sewing project was a set of puffy valance curtains back in the day lol. Great job Ant!! Oh! ETA: for your patterns, use large tracing paper, it's thinner and more flexible and easier to work with.

It looks fabulous! I love the little trim matching the handles. I'm so impressed with how you're figuring out all the mechanics as you go, rather than using a pattern. I can't wait to see what you make next! Now if you want to take it to the next level, if you have identical pieces to cut out, rather than cut them all out individually, you can layer or stack the fabric and cut them all out at the same time! But beware: if it's a piece that has a shape that isn't symmetrical, you will need to worry about right side and wrong side of the fabric. But once you figure that out, it will make the cutting part a lot faster!

I was just about to say I've never seen you so excited about a project, when you said it yourself! I love it! Such nice fabric, & super practical. What a wiz you are!

I am so sooooo SOOOOO proud of you right now. Well done Ant! So good to see you excelling at something you have wanted to do for so very long. I love watching you put your learning together as you go. Thank you for taking on all that your fans have been telling you. When you mentioned seam allowance, I smiled. That is one beautiful reversible lined bag and I would use it for apples for sure! Can’t wait to see what’s next. Big love from my house to yours.❤ 19:17

Hey Ant, congratulations on your amazing bag success! 🥳🥳 You definitely need to parade it along the beach to get lots of envious looks! I hope you're all fully recovered from your surgery - sounds a bit of an ordeal!

Ant i have been watching your videos since your marble mugs video I think like 5-6 years ago. Might have been a short maybe? I am so amazed at how far you have come. Watching you grow as a youtuber has been so much fun. You should be so proud of yourself! I know Im proud of you (dont know if I have a right to be but I am LOL). Your videos always brighten my day and I thank you so much for that. Sending ya lots of love!

❤❤❤👍🎉🎉🎉🪡🥰!!!

I am just done. You capital "Worker", really got the job done. I need a vest.

Love your bag Ant. Well done! Also love the fabric designs you chose.

17:45 I fucking LOVE how you were feeling yourself! Go Ant! 🥳

Amazing job Ant! You have every right to feel passionate about your bag, go on and revel in your glorious success! 😊 it's been really cool seeing your sewing skills progess and I really like the fabrics you chose too! Hope you have a great weekend!

Well done Ant! Well done.

It’s so nice seeing you so happy with it! And it looks great! I want one 😅 Have you thought about selling them? 🤔

Fantastic job, Ant! You’ve come a long way. Congratulations…I’m so happy for you. 😊

So proud of you with your accidental reversible apple-hobo-beach bag! Bravo!! It's so fun to shock yourself with an over the top success 😊. Glad your nose has been taken care of too.

Wow way to go Anthony! That bag is really cool and a good size. I’m not very good at sewing but I’m going to give that a try. Thanks

OMG !!! I am sooo happy for you ! that looks amazing :) Congratulations on your very functional super HOBO Chic bag !

your euphoria at a successful project was infectious. i'm so happy for you. and it looks lovely!

That turned out so great! I love the pattern. It's so fun. You really did a great job. I also love that you're wearing your orange glasses!

Great job! 👏👏

You make My day❤❤😊 love your bag 🎒

You are a “Kinetic” learner, (so am I), you learn by actually doing. Reading instructions or watching someone demonstrate isn’t as effective a way to learn

If you're feeling confident with your sewing, the ultimate challenge would be a long furby 😂

AWWW!! I'm so proud of you Ant! It looks REALLY REALLY NICE!! I actually like the handles where they are - more comfortable on the shoulder than if they ere on the ends (but I am weird when it comes to bags lol) I love what you made hun. Great job!!!

Bloody lush that is! When's your Etsy store opening? 🤪

Textiles? Sewing machine? Anthony Crammen? Well done !!

Look at you Ant! You flippin made a lined tote bag!!! Go you!!!! You did an amazing job! Hope you have a great weekend Ant!

Great job!!!

What a brilliant bag 😍 proud of you! It's definitely giving beach vibes 🏖️

BTW I smelled delicious 😂😂😂

I love how the Thumbnail says "Tote!?" In German this is as if there would be written "Dead people!?" 😂 I'm happy you had such a huge success! The bag looks great!😊💕

Omg look at you! I'm so proud of you... That looks flipping fantastic... See patterns make things so much better!

Great job! I’m so excited for you to use it! I think it’s confidence boosting to watch someone else make something. You’re amazing Anthony❤ ❤ 😊
