I just love how fast you make your bags...Your incredible! I bought this pattern last night just by watching you make this...they are really cute, and I love fast projects!

[@shirleyroeder6134]

My GOODNESS Lauren! You sewed that SEW fast you made my head spin!!! Well done!!

[@TheMaggiemay77]

Does anyone else love the clickity-clack sound of the Juki machines? I just love the sound.

[@jayd6307]

Love all your videos. Would you mind sharing what changes you made to the patterns. Is it just the 1/2 inch on the front center panel? TIA

[@caramagrowski320]

Just finished making my first Devon bag. It’s a great pattern. Had a little trouble using zippers by the yard, but all said I’m going to make a few more. I live your tutorials and watching you sew. Hopefully the next one will go a little smoother. Always look forward to your upcoming tutorials.

[@EnlightenedFlamingo]

Really enjoying your videos! I'm new here, so I'm going through watching them at random. You really turn out some great stuff. I like to think one day I'll get there. I'm a noob, so I'm making small simple things right now like a glasses case & zipper pouches. I'm in the process of slowing getting materials for bigger & more detailed projects eventually. One day I hope to purchase something you've made! You seem to like a lot of the same things I do, so I love seeing your room, too! 💜

[@cynthiakirby6490]

Thank you for sharing what you charge. It makes me feel good about my prices.

[@LaurenMormino]

Glad to hear you say that! I was a little worried about mention it, but I think it helps for us to talk about that sort of thing!

[@cynforrest]

Lauren Mormino Very reasonable. I wouldn’t do it for a dime less!!

[@georgycolson2729]

What Juki Machine do you have? It looks like it'll get through the vinyl easily!

[@violetwilder5922]

Ordered the snips, you always have the coolest sewing gadgets.❤️

[@barbmckillop5162]

Thank you so much for the Great video on the Devon pouch. I was reading a lot of pattern difficulties so I hesitated on purchasing it. Appreciate you making it look so easy. Can you tell me where you got your little snippet scissors, love how convenient they are. Thanks again for the great video. 💕💕

[@juliefadz6339]

Its just crazy to see how skillful you are!!! Love your tutorial..

[@rubyshrivastav9639]

Wonder ful stitching I like your bags

[@LizMcDon]

Lauren. I bought this pattern because of you!! I made one yesterday. It is so cute. It will be Christmas presents for in-laws. I used cotton fabric as the vinyl has not yet arrived - ordered this because of you to!!! For cotton fabric, do you use fusible fleece or decovil light for the back of the pouch. The one I made yesterday I used fusible fleece but only woven fuse on the front pieces. Thanks for your input!!

[@LaurenMormino]

I actually haven’t made one in cotton fabrics but I would probably just use Wovenfuse and the waterproof canvas for lining!

[@FleurdeLinda.Stitches]

I followed along and made one with my own measurements. Bought the pattern and followed her measurements. I did not like that there was at least 1 1/2 in on the top zipper panel! I made it with cork and it’s too pricey to have that much waste.

[@LaurenMormino]

I completely agree. That’s one thing that frustrated me about the pattern.

[@jeanettedaub4368]

I enjoy your videos, they are so helpful and informative! A question about the double sided tape you use, does it gum up your needle when you sew through it? Thanks and can’t wait to see what you’ll be sewing next 🤗

[@cyndiehuntsman2979]

Ok Lauren, I just got my pattern. Wish me luck, you make it look so easy.

[@carolinej3661]

Your "explanation" from 4:53 to 5:03 about trimming the pattern pieces was NOT clear at all. Why not just tell us what you did to trim each piece down, or why not just share the dimensions above? This is a video by someone who has made this item so many times before that they don't realize how many details they are not explaining or leaving out entirely. Fine for any of you who might be experienced sewers, but not so great for those of us trying to *learn* how to construct the item step-by-step.

[@LaurenMormino]

It’s a paid pattern. I cannot give out measurements

[@tatterededge]

I have seen these all over Etsy & have so much fabric because I’m a quilter, that I’m going to get the pattern & make my own. I such at zippers, so your video gave me the confidence that I CAN do them. I will just follow along with you when I make mine. Thanks for the great video! I will check out your zipper pulls.

What are the metal clips you are using please. They look like hair clips. Do they have teeth on them or just smooth?

[@LaurenMormino]

They’re smooth I have some Available at moremeknow.com

[@pollynelson4138]

Could you please teach us how to make your wristlet strap. I cannot get my vinyl to look like your strap. Thank you. Polly

[@angelscott7409]

Can you possibly do a video on how to cut from the sheet of vinyl?? I tried and tried but could not get it all to fit on 1 sheet so I just cut it 1/4 inch smaller on all pieces.

[@meganverley5727]

What Juki do you use?

[@penelope-oe2vr]

Thank you for sharing the website for the vynil! Totally going to get this pattern and make these as an affordable item my friends can buy from me. *squee* and I like basting my zippers with an Elmer's glue stick it keeps them from being wavy. Works for me and it's super cheap, I stock up on them when back to school sales are going. And I prefer using rubber cement rather than double stick tape. Rubber cement in a squeeze bottle.

[@cameliamanriquebravo7371]

Hi, can you use zipper by the yard? Thx!

[@LaurenMormino]

For sure. Just be sure to cut zipper tabs

[@Brineytoes]

I love the design and just finished my first bag. For succeeding bags I will also just cut out those front panel pieces separately instead of cutting apart the one large piece as described in the pattern. I found that very messy to deal with the trimming afterward, so I won’t do that again! Just to make it simpler I will also make templates for faster cutting because this is a bag I will want to make for gifts, and as a wristlet as well as a cosmetic bag for my backpack. Another modification I will make is to add zipper tabs on the main body zipper. I prefer the neater look and tabs makes the sides easier to sew. I like to Iron the interfacing on the fabric before cutting out the pattern pieces. It’s much faster than cutting outer fabric, lining, and interfacing separately. Thanks for your tips and the video! If I hadn’t seen this first I might not have bought the pattern, even though I am a very experienced stitcher! I have recently become. A very low-vision stitcher, but a huge magnifying LED lamp keeps me enjoying my favorite activity.

[@sarahleigh1502]

Awesome!!!Just found you today and love your tutorials. I also viewed some passed live video's. Don't want to stop watching but must retire. Just so you know you've already taught this seasoned seamstress, quilter, and bag maker several things to help my bag/purse making easier. Thank you Lauren. I'm going to see you FB page too. Looking forward to viewing all you tutorials and visiting your website.

[@maryhuber8189]

Hi Lauren, I'm going to make these as Christmas gifts. Your video is awesome, thank you. How many bags can you make using the vinyl glitter (just for one side) I'll be using other material for the front. I'll be purchasing the roll, fyi. Thanks in advance :)

[@cindyfox7082]

I learn so much from your podcast. Yours turn out BEAUTIFUL and mine turn out looking like crap. But im still trying. Im not giving up yet

[@spongebobisthebestanime2575]

hi lauren, how are you doing ? love what you are doing , you really are asombroso. because of you i purchased the same machine you are using ,,, i have watched your video how excited you were before you get your baby. i am going through some problem figure it .... would you show me what kind foot you are using to sew your zipper , are you using zipper foot or the foot came with it. finally, what kind of setting are you using at the back of the machine and other setting ,,,, please, please i need your help. so glad you are out there .

Do you think it would be possible to add credit card slots to it?

[@LaurenMormino]

Absolutely!

Olá boa tarde, quais as medidas por favor, muito linda, mas seus vídeos não tem legenda, obrigada 😘

[@tracytorchon7762]

Hi. Where is the black and white fabric from?

[@Brandi62]

How much did you trim off the pattern pieces? Was it all of them or just certain pieces? I have the pattern butI don’t like to waste expensive cork or fabrics. Thanks!

[@LaurenMormino]

Make one out of cheap fabrics and measure how much you trim off. Then subtract that from the pattern pieces.

[@lisavaughan2901]

I have a regular straight stitch Juki that I love, but need something heavier for leather. What model do you have, and does it work on vinyl & leather? Tired of skipped stitches because of fabric that's too thick.

[@LaurenMormino]

Juki 1181N

[@michellemacdonald3850]

Thanks for sharing very helpful and pleasant. You do great videos. Question can you direct me to where you also purchase that honey colored faux leather in the tutorial? thanks.

[@didirikk]

Thank you so much. I have the pattern but I really like your tutorial. You rock!

[@SewGigi]

Hi, I am a newbie, so, want to know, can I use my regular sewing machine to make these? If so, what size needle should I use since the material is heavier. Thank you

[@kriskiana9904]

Thank you for this great tutorial that makes the pattern so much more easy to follow. I have such a hard time following just regular patterns since I’m a beginner. The videos really help put things into perspective. I love my punk broidery too, I’ve been ordering from them a lot but I have tried several times and I cannot figure out the puzzle of getting one sheet out of it. Do you have any tips on how to lay out the pieces to get just one pouch from one of the vinyl sheets?

[@miannecatindig5477]

hello. thanks for the tutorial. may I ask what kind of fabrica did you use. what fabric is the brown one? thanks

[@ingec2563]

I need that little mermaid pouch😍

[@christinevickers7357]

Great demo

[@erinhampton1405]

I wonder where I'm going wrong with my topstitching 🤔 do you have any tips for a nice looking top stitch over the vinyl. Is there a certain thread I should be going for? I am using the largest stitch length. L•O•V•E your videos. 💕

[@LaurenMormino]

Hmm. Are you using a Teflon or nonstick foot?

[@tamiminor4450]

You have started a craze!

[@karenpalmer9988]

Are you using wovenfuse and Decovil light on the front fabric piece? If you are, what can be used in place of the Decovil because I have never used it, and don't have any... Thank you!

[@LaurenMormino]

Hi Karen! With the knit fabric I used I did add decovil light BUT with just a woven fabric woven fuse is all you’d need!

[@sabrinawillis182]

Watching you with your Juki made me take the leap. Will you share what size needle you are using for your bags. The one that came with my machine seems awfully big.

[@LaurenMormino]

Size 19

[@craftyridge]

Thank you for the great video! I just worked up my first one and also noticed the extra that needs to be removed. Other than that it works up cute and super fast!

[@StephRenee812]

Where did u get that pretty flower fabric??

[@Brandi62]

So are you using a # 5 zipper?

[@LaurenMormino]

Yes

[@dianne20010]

Is that leather you use there

[@LaurenMormino]

I it’s vinyl.

[@thestitchywife]

Hi Lauren, first of all THANKS for great videos. You make it so easy for us to follow and you focus on all the right thing-great teaching. I was just wondering one thing-do you use any interfacing for this specific little bag/pouch-if so-where and wich? Thanks again for all your work. Have a great day!!

[@LaurenMormino]

Thank you Elisabeth! I used decovil and wovenfuse on the accent fabric in the middle, but I think wovenfuse would be just enough!

[@gracefaithandprayer4469]

I really like the wristlet straps, and your pouches are very cute!

[@LizMcDon]

Will you be carrying other colors in the vinyl premade straps? I really need some lighter colors such as white, pink, etc. thanks.

[@LaurenMormino]

Hi Elizabeth! If these current colors do well I will!

[@vanessamorang7944]

For the ones that bought this pattern are you going to give us the measurements you used for this? I'm not good at figuring all that out yet!!! Thank you!!!

[@JudyHart1]

Vanessa Morang that, unfortunately, would be stealing the creativity of the pattern designer, that’s why Lauren doesn’t give measurements. The patterns are copyrighted.

[@suryx13]

Where can I get the pattern for this bags?

[@atlladyleo1]

What materials did you use for this? Also, could a home machine handle it? I can't afford an industrial like yours!

Why not top stitch the outer to the lining? Just curious😳

It can create a very bulky side seam and really isn’t necessary

[@Jmzblondable]

Hi Lauren! I'm joining in on the Devon Pouch swap and was watching for some insight as to how these come together and while I know you cannot share the measurements of the pattern pieces (copyright etc) can you share how much you downsized in order to prevent waste? I'm planning on using vinyl and would like to cut the pieces the correct size the first time. Thanks for your awesome videos!

[@LaurenMormino]

I would just suggest making one and measuring what you trim and subtracting that from the pattern measurement. Hopefully that makes sense!

[@Jmzblondable]

@@LaurenMormino yep, I reviewed the pattern and thought the same thing. It looks like there are only one or two pieces that look like they will need to be adjusted, I was thinking it was the whole thing! Thanks!!

[@deenster808]

Hi! Just found you and love what you do! Your top stitching on this is REMARKABLE! while I’m sure your skill has a lot to do with it, does it also have to do with your type of thread and/or your particular machine? I NEED that kind of top stitching in my life!! 😊

[@LaurenMormino]

Thank you! I use a TEX 92 thread which is fairly thick. That definitely helps with top stitching!

Hi Rose! no problem! I'm using a repurposed clothing item for my center fabric actually! You could use vinyl or leather or cotton etc. I do ship to canada!
