Totally agree on the "everyone can use one of these" comment! I've made so many of them now as gifts. Sew on!

[@lornamatty3348]

Thank you Jess. Your tutorials are always clear and easy to follow. Quick question. If making the smaller pouch, what length would you cut the zipper tape? 7 1/4? Thank you.

[@Kaylibu]

I wondered this too

[@jannawhitten2473]

Thank you so much for this tutorial! ❤

[@denisescott8034]

I tried it and it was so easy, I have been sewing for two years and really wanted to try a zipper bag. I love how they turned out, I made two. Wish I could attach a picture. Thank you SO much for your wonderful teaching!!😊

[@laceysmothers9937]

I would LOVE to see you do the Making Backpack pattern. I adore that bag and I've been nervous to start it because backpacks are super intimidating!

Yes! I bought the making backpack pattern over a year ago and have just been too chicken to go it alone!

Yes, me too. I'd like for you to make this pattern.

[@maryannnewsham7714]

These are just so cute. They would make a nice little wristlet but they also would make a really nice crossbody bag. Just put two little loops and d-rings. Put a couple little pockets inside or whatever you want and you are good to go

[@christinemoore2661]

Very cute bag. I just love your plaid blouse...you look fabulous in that color.

[@OklaRoots]

Awww thank you!

[@dianeernest1660]

I love to watch your tutorials. And I would love to make everything you show. But one thing I love to make is a medium shopping bag that you can have a seat zipper on the top to use as a purse. I saw a tutorial that the Japanese made and you can’t understand them. Although they the pictures are good and they use their finger where you have to so but I would love to have something that you would make and it’s so easy when you do it. Again I love your show. Thumbs up on everything you do. Thank you Diane Ernest.

[@crislaurita5049]

Great video, like always!! Just one suggestion , when you top stich around the zipper , I would do the lining too because in this way the lining will never get cut in the zipper !! Just my 2 cents!

[@OklaRoots]

Good point!

So should we do this?

[@dagmarsefrova323]

Thanks again for the beautiful video. I have just a small note - I would recommend stitching with the main fabric and the lining, because it happened to me that the zipper caught the lining. Otherwise everything is great. I sewed a smaller version for face mask.

[@maryannnewsham7714]

I have made a pattern very very similar to this but I think I'm going to order this pattern and I'm going to try it out of cork fabric. I'll line it probably with quilt cotton or pul.

Hi Jess...could you tell me more about the fabric labels you use? What size did you order so you can sew all four sides? How do you choose the picture on your label? I've never ordered any before, and their page confuses me a bit...any help would be appreciated! Thank you...

[@lynetterhoads6284]

At 22:55, why do you pull the lining away from the bag when you do the top stitch? Usually you top stitich them together, right??

[@OklaRoots]

Haha yes, in many patterns we do. The goal is to not top stitch the side edges of the outer panel, since that creates a messy bulk. So often we'll top stitch the lining and exterior along the zipper, but start and stop before we get to the side edges. Another option is to just exclude the lining from top stitching, and top stitch along the entire top edge.

[@lynetterhoads6284]

Jess OklaRoots ok thank you. Can’t wait to make some.

[@corrinadicken8871]

How long is the zipper tape for the small pouch?

[@loveone347]

Can you use cotton Lycra for this bag.

[@OklaRoots]

Definitely! Just interface it with some woven interfacing first.

[@daisymaydew]

Quick question if I use canvas fabric would I need to interface? Planning on using a gorgeous blue canvas I got on the outside. Then some quilt Cotton for the lining. So would I need to interface or put Fusible fleece on any of my pieces?

[@OklaRoots]

You don't need to add the interfacing with canvas, but that fusible fleece does create a nice soft look.

[@daisymaydew]

[@darygal64]

Love your channel and videos! Been sewing for years, mostly craft stuff that’s why I love all your projects. Recently I started a pillow cover that I’m going to machine embroider and started thinking about pre-shrinking fabric. I used to think since I wasn’t garment sewing it didn’t matter. What’s your take on it?

[@OklaRoots]

It really depends on the bag you're making. Bigger bags with a lot of cork and vinyl, I don't worry about it because I won't throw it in the washing machine. Snack pouches, duffel bags, items that I know will get a lot of abuse... I will prewash those fabrics.

[@evanolan6922]

Do you make reusable Xmas bags

[@OklaRoots]

I don't, but I have a friend designing patterns for that very idea!

[@zzzzzz308]

I’m curious why woven fusible interfacing instead of non-woven. I’ve seen both being used on bags so is it just a matter of personal preference or does woven have some particular advantage? Thank you!

[@OklaRoots]

From my experience, non woven interfacing is used when you really want the bag to be firm. Woven interfacing is good when you don't want the fabric to stretch or fray, but still want it to be drapey.

[@zzzzzz308]
