[@lauraashton2626]

One of my 1st solo sewing projects... gotta start somewhere. I just changed the back loop and overall size a bit. And I absolutely love it.

Thank you did a great job of explaining. I am ready to do the project for Christmas presents.

[@juliebetzel4528]

I have a ton of 1/4 inch elastic and have been trying to figure out what to do with it. I'm a relative beginner so this will be great for Christmas presents!!

[@beatricebalducci45]

Lovely project! Suitable for beginners as I am :)

Thanks for sharing this. I have a lot of fabric left from mask making so I’m going to use some of it to make some of these. So cute! Thank you 😊

[@kaarinasmith1981]

I love this tutorial so much! Thank you!

[@SewHungryHippie]

I'm so glad!

[@SusanSmith-hl3iv]

WELL DONE! Easy explanation. Thanks for speeding up tape when sewing etc. Who hasn’t run out of bobbin at the wrong time? I especially like the way you attached the elastic to the fabric before sewing the vertical seam. Also like how the handle was attached. I’m not a beginner, but this certainly qualifies as a beginner project. Another use for these bags: After washing my hands I dry them on a half sheet of paper towel, then I let it air dry. I store these half-towels in a bag like this for cleaning projects. I keep one in the kitchen and bathroom. Another bag holds small fabric scraps. I make travel bags too. I sew up the bottom and run a narrow ribbon or bias tape through the top casing. . Each one for a different purpose. I use one bag for panties, another for socks

[@user-yc7jr7of9y]

OMG yes! I am making these as well for my panties and socks. I also want to try this for wiping cloths for my kitchen. Thanks for the ideas! *hugs*

[@juanarodriguez9149]

I like your ironing board

[@bettyborders9463]

Looks beautiful.

[@SewHungryHippie]

Thank you Betty :)

[@satanslitlehellper]

Just made two of these following the video. Really love how you explained things, kept it simple and not too technical and right to the point and not condescending. I also really LOVED your tip about putting a pin at the end of the elastic to stop it feeding through, BRILLIANT!!!!!!!!!! Thanks for a lovely tutorial vid ^.^

[@SewHungryHippie]

Thank you so much for watching, I'm happy it was helpful!

[@trishnoel1635]

Just made one of these today. Love your instructions - they are so easy to follow. I’m making a couple more and may make them to sell at craft fairs.

[@SewHungryHippie]

Wonderful!

[@janicew5320]

Good idea to make a small one for your car. You could hang it on the headrest for those extra bags for quick cleanup of snacks and drinks we all have messing up the back seat

[@freedastrain8205]

[@SewHungryHippie]

Ciao! Thank you from ROME, ITALY! 🌞 Grazie mille! 🌞 Although now I usually use my cloth or canvas shopping bags I STILL have a ton of plastic bags that I utilize for various reasons, especially when I need a bag that is waterproof! So, this niffy little project is a great idea for plastic bag storage! Thanks! 👍 By the way - Stay well. Stay safe. Stay blessed! 🙏😊

[@SewHungryHippie]

Yay glad you like it. :D I seem to collect plastic bags no matter how hard I try to use my reusables LOL. Thank you for stopping by, stay healthy and safe, buona fortuna 2021!

I know I'm 2 1/2 years late, but thank you for this video! I had plantar fasciitis surgery for the second time in a year on my left foot, so I'm trying to come up with things to do. Just made one of these for my best friend (she has a new home) and now gonna make one for me!

[@SewHungryHippie]

I hope you recover quickly, that's a painful surgery. So glad you found this video, sewing is great! For me it's my sanity! 😄🥰🥰

I loved your presentation…..great job? What else do have info. For??

[@rebeccasena8258]

Thank you for sharing. I know I can do this. I have lots of mask material left over.

[@SewHungryHippie]

YES absolutely use that mask material up, have fun!! :D

[@robind8155]

So for the last seam can I use serger instead? I am having hard time on sewing through elastics😂😂😂

[@pamalagilbert3198]

Can you tell me the name of the fabric you use on your ironing board thank you

[@princesshannah8190]

love this! great way to use up fat quarters I don’t love 😂

love the soda bottle fabric! where did you find it? thank you!

It's by Ruby Star Society! www.aquiltingbee.com/shop/Fabric/Moda/Ruby-Star-Society/p/Pop-Blue-Raspberry-x44723677.htm

[@michelesalazar2045]

I like your version better than mine. I made several that are lined and take to much fabric ,if your selling them yours are faster and cost effective

[@jansalhoff8953]

Thank you so much. This is very easy to understand. And, I love that you've showed you are a "normal" seamstress...you ran out of bobbin thread :). Did you cover your ironing board? That fabric is adorable. How did you do it? Thanks.

[@SewHungryHippie]

Thanks Jan! Yes I did cover my ironing board, I have a free pattern if you subscribe to my newsletter (or it's one dollar if you don't LOL) ----and video tutorial for a mini board here on my channel. Here is the pattern for the regular and wide ironing boards: sewhungryhippie.com/collections/all-patterns/products/ironing-board-cover-pdf

@@SewHungryHippie I made it today! I'll share a photo on your facebook group.

[@melodywalls4693]

Good direction, What iron are you using? IT looks like a good size. TIA.

[@michellereynolds3171]

❤️ the tutorial!!!! Has anyone ever told you you look like Beth Dutton from Yellowstone!!!!??

[@SewHungryHippie]

That’s so funny- my college roommate told me that about Beth too, you really think?! 😂😂💓💓

[@arbiabrahimi4406]

Verry good ! Thanks you

[@suzansullivan3767]

Can you use the same method to sew down the elastic when sewing clothing such as pj bottoms or do you need to see the elastic piece together? I’ve never used this method before. Clever!

[@SewHungryHippie]

It can work if you do the elastic first, then sew the side seam together of the pant leg after, then the elastic is "joined" and there isn't flat space.

[@suzansullivan3767]

Thanks!@@SewHungryHippie

[@khushbuzkitchen2502]

👍👍👍👍😊😊😊

[@akualayla6998]

Lol remember using the smaller iron. 😊 It died...😂

[@margaretHaney-md5fj]

[@janicew5320]

This would be great to make with fat quarters.

[@MARY-tw7lh]

I have one that I’ve for over 10yrs...it’s still hanging in there🤣. I need another one to store plastic bags when I clean out my cat litter box🙀

[@christineswaim7449]

Would a fat quarter be big enough?

[@SewHungryHippie]

A FQ is 18" x 22" so it would be just an inch different, but it will work! (Measurements in dialog box are 19" x 22")

[@christineswaim7449]

Thank you

You don't have to be a seamstress to sew straight lines. You can sew this, it will be a better result.
