How to Sew a Tote Bag

[@Mickey-jn8hz]

The leaves were blowing in the wind, I love it. Perfection isn’t all its created to be, whimsy is much better and you my darling, have whimsy! Love it!

I always sew my straps on before assembling. I also sew pockets on my lining. Make sure your handles are equal distance from the sides . Love your bag, simple pattern but so pretty.

Super cute but how sturdy is it?

[@sewingwithcreationsps9131]

it is very sturdy I put my glass container for lunch in them and it holds very well

[@LisaLisa-zl9vu]

I think i can do this! lol So you used 1/4 inch seams throughout? Also, did you clip the corners of the outer bag at all? Is it necessary? Thank you.

[@hehasrizenful]

Hi LisaLisa Yes you can you got this, 😀 yes I used a 1/4 inch seam throughout, I did not clip the corners, you could it’s not necessary if you have a lot of bulk you can clip some of it off. I didn’t have a lot.

[@Mickey-jn8hz]

Wish you would have given the measurements of the front and back piece.

Hello.. I love the bags I am new at making bags and I have a question how would you add a zipper or velcro to keep the bag shut it there anyway you can do a video on how you would do that I watched other bag videos and you explained the instructions to where I can understand it I have a bunch of learning issues and the way you explained in your video was easy for me to understand

[@sewingwithcreationsps9131]

Hi @AuntRedsQuiltsandCrafts I am so happy you can understand it❤️😁👏🏽, thank you for watching, next month I will be working with zippers and you can use the video to make big bags and small one.

[@auntredsquiltsandcrafts]

Thank you

I have found that if you sew the lining 1/2” smaller than the front n back, it will fit much better-no bunching inside of lining.

[@sewingwithcreationsps9131]

@ellenpowell4155 you are so right I just seen this probably a couple of months back on crafty Gemini. If you have not heard of her, you should check her out. She really has some really nice videos but yes you are so right I tried it and I loved it. thank you for sharing.

[@ellenpowell4155]

@@sewingwithcreationsps9131 Very familiar with Crafty Gemini. She has great tutorials

[@RoeRoe123]

Beautiful but I'm watching you stuff bag in lining but the handles look about a quarter inch off. Maybe it's the angle of the camera. It's going to be beautiful 😍

Many people have said that the friction pen marks will reappear with cold, but come out permanently when washed.

[@hehasrizenful]

Hi Dakin I have heard the same thing I have been using them for a while now and it has not happen to me, if this has happened to any one please let us know in the comments and thank you in advance for sharing.
