How To :: Necessary Clutch Wallet Sew-Along :: Finishing The Wallet

[@SerenaKaye]

💚🖤 I am so excited to make one, I'm sure I will be rewatching repeatedly but that's ok since you are a wonderful teacher.

[@juliedaniels3397]

I’ve now made over 85 of these but had a couple year break in between my last 2 wallets & all the rest. I got burnt out on making them, but now am back to it. Thank you so much for these videos. I was able to refresh myself on how they’re made & finally made one just for myself! Thank you so much for these beautiful, well organized instructions with the best hacks for the NCW.

[@wendypassalent4426]

Hi. I commented a month ago that this series was amazing. Today I just finished my first NCW and I am even more thankful for this series of videos. I don't think I could have completed this without your help. (Or if I did, it would have been accompanied by a lot of tears and ripped out stitches.) Thank you again!

[@liletteautrey8481]

Really well done and you are a very good teacher

[@wendypassalent4426]

WOW! this series of videos was amazing...thank you!

[@conniel.4601]

Your instructions are great, very, very helpful. Thank you so much.

[@oscar6443]

Hi Sian. Love, love your tutorials. Love your mum’s smile, and your dads humour, and you are so pretty. I have spent a lot of hours watching, what I see as a happy house hold. Keep up the good work. I’ve not been dressmaking for a number of years but watching You I have been sorting out my fabrics, and will get back to it again. I’m 73 years old so know rather then later would be a good idea. Thank You

[@liletteautrey8481]

Thank you for sharing. It is easy for you to make one to match each of your big collection of shoes we can see on display

[@MegaMiguy]

Thank you so much, you did a wonderful tutorial, without you my wallet won’t be finished.

[@karenhoward6439]

Been wanting to try this wallet for a while but the pattern totally flummoxed me!! Your videos de-mystified it for me - thank you. Will feel much more confident giving it a go now.

[@MultiCaro2011]

I so enjoyed all the five segments of the NCW tutorial! Very well explained and very precise! Thank you Sian 😊

[@angelamcgowan1253]

My first NCW was a smashing success , thanks to these videos.

[@rosemcginty5119]

Your series of tutorials for the NCW is the absolute best l have seen on KZbin. You are very thorough and precise. I really enjoyed watching. I have the pattern and will be getting a rivit press. Thank you for sharing these wonderful tutorials.

[@lauramendoza801]

I just made my first one. Thank you. I watched all the videos and followed along to a perfect bag. I’m a happy girl. I wish you happiness in all that you do.

[@fredacott3886]

Excellent tutorials. I’ve watched different ones and yours is the best!

[@lorrainemurphy2258]

Thank You for sharing, can't wait to get my pattern

[@teresakeogh9572]

Brilliant videos very well explained easy to follow thank you ❤️

[@sallydingle321]

Hi Sian, fantastic tutorial 👍. I think we all want to make one now. That rivet press is amazing and might have to go into my birthday list😉. Thanks again for putting such a lot of hard work into this tutorial and well done for fitting it in before your holiday, which I'm hoping is going really well for you and your parents. Looking forward to seeing you back soon 😘

[@jonavin2361]

Thank you so much for these fab tutorials, you really are a brilliant teacher and everything is really clear, concise and fun to watch! Huge thumbs up 👍 I hope you, the FWF and QQ are having a wonderful time on your holibobs 🤗🤗🤗xxx

[@StitchedUp]

Hey Sian, just wanted to say a MAHOOSIVE thank you for your NCW series of tutorials, I followed them all yesterday to create my flamingo bag and they were so useful, well executed and really helped me to create my masterpiece lol!, I see what you mean by them being addictive, I can't wait to make another, desperate for a rivet press now though xx

[@serenbeck]

Have just completed my first, but not last, NCW. Your sew-a-long made the whole process quite straightforward. Thank you for taking the time to share your experiences and skills with others. It is much appreciated.

[@tinafisher]

just made my SECOND NCW thanks to YOU, I would have never had the nerve or been able to understand the directions as I seem to be a visual learner. THank you, going to make a bunch of them for Christmas presents, love the tutorial, love you and your family, oh and that cat, she's such an overlord!

[@cr8tivecarbaholic]

Love the double zipper pockets and rivets! Great tutorial. Thank you for all you did to produce this for us.

[@babsh3553]

I did it. I did it. THANK YOU so much. I am super proud of my finished NCW. I couldn't have done it without you. Bxx

[@NannyZ3]

Thank you so much. Just completed my first NCW with your help. So pleased with it 😊🧵👏

[@nancyjones8285]

Excellent tutorials. Thank you so much Sian. I wouldn't have been brave enough to attempt an NCW without this and now I'm excited to get on and make my second one!

[@reneeligay9300]

Just finished my second NCW with following your videos, thank you so much, I love watching you everyday!

[@constanceblanchard7608]

Out of all the NCW tutorials I've seen, yours is the most comprehensive and concise. In other words, the easiest for my OCD aspie brain to understand. Thank you for doing this series! I saved the entire thing to a playlist so I can watch it when my pattern arrives. One thing: do you think you could do a specific tutorial on installing twist locks? It would be SO helpful!

[@annbuck7644]

All the Thank you's. Just got to get a few new bits and ready to roll

[@chrisdavis8139]

Thank you for the help you gave me through the great videos. I've made several of the NCW wallets but haven't made any for a while so it was great to follow along with you and appreciated the wonderful tips you shared along the way. It was relaxing as you have a very calming voice. God bless you!!! Have a great day!! Chris

[@rebeccarichardson481]

Thankyou so much with guiding me through my very first NCW. Your easy to follow I suctions and guidance made it so worth while. I'm so happy with how it turned out xxx

[@Rythemic]

thank you so much, great tutorials. I've made this clutch and am planning my next. I've been sewing over 50 years and I've learnt some great new tips from you - pinking scissors to do your notching! how simple (why didn't I know that! lol).

[@lynneozzyblackbeard]

Hi Sian! Just wanted to say a big thank you very much for making this tutorial!! I've wanted to make this purse for ages, and would never have worked it out by myself. And I definitely will be making more! Lynne xx

[@laurajones4088]

Sian, this is such a great tutorial! Throughout the entire series, your instructions are clear and thorough. Love the "Sian method" of constructing the bag. I've not made one yet, but it's definitely on my list and I shall refer to this series when I do. Thank you-well worth the wait. Hope you and the parentals are enjoying your holiday.

[@brendapatel703]

Hi Sian. Fabulous sew along! I am now the proud owner of a gorgeous wallet. Really clear instructions, and I am thrilled with the result. Am cutting out my second one as we speak. I'm not on instagram so can't show you, but lovely in Batik fabric. Thank you soooo much. Xx

[@annelindstrom4041]

Thank you SO much for all these tutorials. They are amazing. Watched all of them - now ready to make it!

[@colleengarcia159]

I have seen many tutorials before and this the BEST! I have ever seen thank you for sharing I made my very first wallet!

[@SewManyFabrics]

Yes, definitely must make this bag. I can't stop thinking about it! Sister offered to buy a pattern for my birthday next month so this will be it. Now I need to collect all the other bits. Thank you Sian!

[@suedouglas4959]

Sian what a delight. I did not look at the instructions once. I love learning how to do something by watching and your tutorial was excellent. Off to buy a rivet press now! Thank you so much.

[@pinkstar8907]

Thank you soooooooo much! This was my first time on a sewing machine in a while but I followed your tutorial and made a wallet that I'm so in love with. I shed a little tear when I finished because I normally give up on stuff like this. I never even looked at the instructions because your videos were so great!

[@lisa101lisa4]

Thank you for taking the time to do this. I really feel inspired to make one now x

[@michoumakes]

Wonderful tutorial. And the rivet idea is so much better than sewing down the sides which I did initially. Thankfully I have a press so I shall be using that instead of the sewing procedure. Thanks ever so much Sian. Great viewing from start to finish.

[@AdirondackRuby]

Hurrah! I don't know why, as I have no intention of ever sewing one myself, but I watched each part of this sewalong. Seriously so impressive how something that looks so complicated and daunting can come together with such ease. Considering all the work you put in, I'm surprised you don't charge more than you do!

[@suesue929]

Ditto! Watched every part but I can never see myself making one as I know every ‘Ask me how I know?’ would be done by me and I’d probably be divorced as well. Incredibly organised and informative with impressive end result. Why anyone would thumbs down these videos is beyond me.

[@SasszeOne]

This has been an awesome tutorial from beginning to end. I as so intimidated by this pattern but you show it step by step and so clearly. I love this pattern and I am not afraid to sew plenty more now. I will be buying a press though for the rivets that would be very helpful. Or using my vintage machine to sew through the layers in the end. Thank you so much!

[@Lisapittsburghnurse]

Best tutorial on KZbin Thank you very much!

[@bellepoupee61]

Very good tutorials, I really like the fact that you put that extra stiff interfacing for the top and the body, that you so much for this I am pitting your tutorial in my files! I made only one so far but my next one I will do your method. Have a wonderful day! Christine

[@user-vx6tc8mv9y]

I have just found your channel and watched all the tutorials on the purse, I aim to give this a go with my basic beginner abilities, your tutorial is great so has given me the confidence will be following them again once all pieces purchased so I can pause and play at my speed. Thank you for this much appreciated.

[@denisequail3779]

I wish I had seen these before attempting my first one, or my second and third ones!! Fourth one should be so much better now!!! Very good tutorials, clear and precise, easy to understand. Thankyou. :)

[@greentree202]

Thank you so much for these videos! I made my first NCW today and I love it! I will definitely be making more!

[@myralorraine]

I can see why they’re sew addictive to you, they’re beautiful!

[@racheldeasey7584]

Great thanks Sian!,!

[@kathleenshepherd1557]

Thanks for a great video tutorial from start to finish, been wanting to make one for months, now after watching it doesn’t see so daunting, so fingers crossed, with help from your step by step tutorial I might just manage one thank you 👍😁

[@lorrainebradshaw970]

It took me a while but I have now finished my first NCW!!!! Thank you so much for this tutorial, it really helped!!! I am excited to do another one. :)

[@maureencullen1008]

That was incredible.An excellent tutorial that made me realise and appreciate the amount of work involved in making the clutch wallet. Beautiful and professional wallets.Thanks

[@erinpaulgaard4481]

Great tutorial 👍🏼worked out better than I imagined ... thank you so much ☺️

[@myriannilavargasvera4742]

Hello.....I am writing to you from Peru...I bought the pattern to make this bag and your videos helped me a lot to understand how to sew it.......I don't speak English........regards myrian

[@KittenishBehaviourSian]

Estoy tan contenta de que el video haya sido útil. (I hope google translate got that right!) 😊

[@kristenbradley5737]

Thanks for the great sewalong. I’ve got my bits on order and can’t wait to get started x

[@cherriesnhoney]

hey sian, that was a great sew-a-long, you did very well...so clear with instruction and easy to follow. thanks for putting it together:)

[@andreeclinger7659]

⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️. Fantastic video series!!! Your tutorials are wonderful and very detailed!!

[@helengilkison2034]

I loved the five episodes - you are very thorough and patient. Than you for a job well done!

[@spiritwings4592]

Excellently done.very precise in directions and I enjoyed all of them. Love the step by step. Even a newbie could do it this way will definitely show my daughter who has never used a machine. TKYSVM

[@doxiemom70]

Thank you for this series. It really helped me figure out a few things on this pattern. I love the adjustments you made too.

[@user-vx6tc8mv9y]

Yay just bought NCW pattern it’s 2mm short of 2.5inches so will see if I can change on hubby’s computer later. Next job order interfacing and bag hardware. So excited.

[@biloxipinto62]

I'm working on the nessesary clutch wallet watching your video.. U r awesome thank u for making these videos.

[@JavaLikeHomesteading]

Love it I'm getting the pattern tonight. You truly made me think I could do it

[@boulevarddufil2410]

thank Slan for this interesting tutorial, very clear and pro, every detail is here, you teach very well, Thanks again ! bizz , Sylvie

[@karenedwards242]

When I made this my machine didn’t like sewing thru all the fabric and I did not have a rivet tool so I applied permanent fabric glue on the sides and clamped it along the sides and let it dry. So far so good I have used it about three weeks now and have not had any problems with it coming apart.

[@kittenandgoat]

I have just got the pattern for this - so many new things to learn - thank you for helping

[@StitchedUp]

Fabulous Sian! I have purchased the pattern and waiting for my fabric can't wait to get started xx

[@gertrudewelsh781]

I love the parrot one.

[@elisabethv.1974]

Merci beaucoup pour vos vidéos très bien réalisées donc très compréhensibles. Je vais pouvoir continuer cette pochette sans problème.

[@catherinecharlwood4546]

Loved your series! Thank you

[@SewNaturalDane]

Yep, i am definitely buying this pattern after my pattern no buy. In the meantime I'm going to save up for a rivet press, figured since I have jeans on my list and a few other projects it will be well worth the investment. Thanks so much Sian, i enjoyed watching this sewalong. Of course your NCWs are beautiful and bonus I already have one to refer to when I make mine 💜💜😁

[@annerankin1191]

Just did a face to face course on this. Your videos were much clearer. (I heard about them at the course...)! Tx

[@george40ish]

Thank you so much! I love your personality and teaching style. I appreciate all the effort you put into making these tutorials. I am wondering if there is a way to make this clutch just a wee bit bigger...

[@robynrobinson4348]

Thank you thank you thank you I am going to start tomorrow.

[@aimeekluiber]

Wonderful series, Siân! I have never thought to use my press to close the sides with rivets. I hate sewing those side pieces! (Although I'm not sure I have the dies for rivets...I usually use mine for grommets). Thanks for your hard work!

[@shameemanafees7240]

Thank u for sharing with us. going to try one

[@margyslater4985]

You look so gorgeous today and more “wizardry” with your machines!❤️😀👍🇨🇦💋

[@kimbutterworth1555]

Thanks for an excellent tutorial

[@laurievickery1694]

Wonderful tutorial!

[@meggraham4974]

Wow great tutorial. I watched it all the way through and decided you have the patience of Job. I do not and although you did a marvelous job throughout I will not be attempting this. Thank you for sharing though. Love watching you.

[@junemadgwick7590]

Thank you these have been really helpful.

[@juliaarnold890]

Fabulous tutorial thank you for sharing xx

[@janetkingshott8965]

Thankyou so much for the tutorial you explain so well i am in ore of you 😄

[@Apairoffluffysocks]

Awesome. I have a snap press that I use with my KAM snaps - I might just invest in the parts for using rivets. I know my machine would not handle that much bulk for that last part.

[@ingec2563]

Awesome tutorial!!

[@sandyheller5438]

I’m so happy. Thank you 👼

[@eleanorfitzsimmons2040]

I actually think I could do this now. One FYI, if worried about zipper pockets slipping since you can't pin, you could use 1/4 inch double sided tape on the edge of the opening underneath.

[@barrynanahu996]

Love your tutorials ... Thank you for sharing ♡ Will you be doing a tutorial on installing a rear pocket on the new pleeeeease??

[@175muffin]

Just finished making my first not quite as good as yours lot to learn, but your tutorial is great 👍 when I came to the end my machine did like like the sides so ended up sewing them together by hand, as my hand held one did not like it either. 😮thank you

[@EllenMHelms]

LOVE your videos!! Between you and Debby Hunker’s videos, I feel thoroughly educated ❤️ I made one NCW a couple years ago but want to make more. Thank you so much!!

Hi there, wonderful video collection, I can't wait to make my first one. I did buy this exact same rivet press, it came with absolutely zero instructions and the two pieces you showed in the video. I was wondering if you had any type of rivet tutorial and where you purchased your rivet punch. I am a little paranoid about using it and ruining something i made. Help.

[@KittenishBehaviourSian]

The sellers have a KZbin channel which give you all the demos 😊 kzbin.info

[@gladysshirey8672]

@@KittenishBehaviourSian OMG i love you even more now!!!!! THANK YOU.

[@alicallahan6038]

Just love making the NCWs and plan to give them to the ladies on my Xmas gift list. Since I'm planning to make a number of them I think it might be wise to buy a rivet punch like yours. Please advise what it is actually called and what size rivetts one should be using with that particular model. Thanks, Ali

[@suecberry]

I cant wait to make one! I have a rivet press - but none of the inserts 🙄 now I dont know where to get them from - any suggestions?

[@gertrudewelsh781]

I should have watched the videos BEFORE I made my bag. LOL I really wish I had a press.
