What size needle for faux leather and what foot did you use or any specialized equipment?

[@ritamcv]

Such a great little bag. My grandkids will love it for their phones, etc. May I ask where you got the beautiful faux leather?

[@LindsHandmadeDesigns]

I highly suggest MyPunkBroidery for vinyl. They have so many choices to choose from (it’s actually overwhelming lol) but I like that they offer vinyl rolls which you’d need for a body strap.

Lynn question please, my printer printed the pattern out at one 16th of an inch off do you think I can still make the sling without worrying oh the size. Thank you

Lovely bag, I'm going to make it in cork but would also like to try leather. Where do you purchase your leather?

[@LindsHandmadeDesigns]

I really prefer to pick out leather myself after touching it and looking it over to see if it’ll suit my needs so I have a local Tandy leather to me that I get the majority of my leather from

[@margiecastonguay517]

So option b is vanilla too.. you can't make it with cotton? Thanks Lynn

[@LindsHandmadeDesigns]

Right. The edges are all left raw so it needs to be made using a self healing textile like cork/vinyl/leather.

Hi. Can you please tell me what brand the Flip Lock die is? Not having any luck trying to locate it. TIA.

I bought a set of the punches that have all different shapes and sizes from Amazon. This is the one I purchased:www.amazon.com/Shape-Hollow-Cutter-Leather-Handmade/dp/B01G84OSUE?pd_rd_w=FwKjv&pf_rd_p=654426bb-d9e0-46ff-b0bb-c0819dce172b&pf_rd_r=WAJ96W7WNX35SXHV43Z0&pd_rd_r=56477a7f-43bf-4910-b2f9-60baa962b255&pd_rd_wg=owlfX&pd_rd_i=B01G84OSUE&psc=1&ref_=pd_bap_m_rp_1_sc

Will this hold an iPhone 8 Plus. Thank you.

[@LindsHandmadeDesigns]

Absolutely! That’s the size of my phone. (Sorry I didn’t see this comment sooner 🥴)

[@martahaight439]

great tutorial! where did you get such a huge roll of DST?

[@LindsHandmadeDesigns]

Wawak!

Where did you get the press plate for your Kam press?

[@LindsHandmadeDesigns]

One of the members in my fb group was selling them but I’m not sure she is anymore. I know Debby Hunker with Doodabug creations is out of Canada and she has some. I believe someone told me that Kam HAS these plates for their press too 🤔

[@kathydavis8033]

Please,,,, where can I find the side anchors?? I have my sling and strap finished but no side anchors!!!

[@LindsHandmadeDesigns]

I got mine from Ningbags.com. I know bagsbykat, and Emmaline bags also carry them. 👍🏻

[@kathydavis8033]

Sorry to bother you again. Is there a SVG link for this pattern?

[@LindsHandmadeDesigns]

Can you message me on Etsy and I can set up a custom listing for you for just the svg file if you’ve already purchased the pdf pattern.

[@maddienaidan]

How much vinyl do I need? The 3 sq ft confused me sorry

[@LindsHandmadeDesigns]

I saw your comment on Fb. A roll of vinyl 12”x57” would be perfect since you need the length for a body strap 👍🏻

[@margiecastonguay517]

Can you give finished dimensions linn

[@LindsHandmadeDesigns]

It’s roughly 5”w by 8”h

Where did you get your ruler with the curved end to cut a round corner. Thanks
