How to sew a Wet Bag - with Billette's Crafts

[@collef1136]

I DID IT!🎉 you are such an amazing teacher!!!! Thank you thank you thank you from the bottom I’m my heart. I have never used a zipper before. I’m still in shock. It’s pretty good. Beyond thrilled. Thank you for making my day. I’m new to your channel and because of your teaching I’ve made 5 pads so far and this wet bag. You are a super star ⭐️ in my books. 😘❤️🙌🙏🏻❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️

[@billettescrafts]

Great job!

[@collef1136]

I’m so grateful for all your videos. I’m new to wearing reusable pads. First week!! Going well. Thank you for sharing your talents. 😘❤️

[@robinmazariegos1]

very nice, one of the best tutorials on wet bags

[@ElizRodriguez1]

i really love the tutorial. i always use the exact size for the zipper. From now on i will use a longer one. I would love to see a kids pajama tutorial

[@BraidsbyAshleyA]

It’s crazy because this morning I said to myself I should make wet bags to sell with my pads. And then about an hour later you uploaded this. And the only reason I even became a cloth pad maker was because your shop was closed to purchase from. so I said this must be the universe telling me to make them. And I followed you pad tutorial. And now will be following your wet bag tutorial. I’m very grateful for you thank you so much for posting your tutorials.

[@billettescrafts]

Your welcome dear! Good luck with making pads. My only advice even though you didn’t ask for it 😂 is to beware of custom orders. They can burn you out quick because it takes away from your creative flow. It’s okay to make what you want to make, when you want to make it and your customers will still buy from you. Choose beautiful fabrics 👏

[@BraidsbyAshleyA]

@@billettescrafts when you say “custom” orders. How custom does it get in the cloth pad world? I don’t really have anything custom I can do right now. Other than sizing.

[@ponderosalr6234]

Very nice work and clear and concise instructions. Can’t wait to give it a try! 😄

[@billettescrafts]

Yay!! Show me pics or ask for help if needed 🙂

[@xWaffleHaus]

All of your tutorials are fantastic! As a new sewer (I just started this month!) I am so thankful for your videos! I can’t wait to make all of these re-usables! This wet bag made me think: what if you made a larger version (like, 5x the size) to use as a reusable “garbage” bag to keep in your car? For road trips! Just so it’s not sitting on the floor or on the seats. :) Could also use this same concept to make cases for reusable utensils/straws. Ok, enough rambling...you’ve inspired me!!!

[@billettescrafts]

I’m happy that your happy! Yes so many uses for a wetbag 👍

[@Eli-pg6qb]

Thank you so much! This has been the easiest tutorial to follow. ❤

[@idareandevers9211]

Good Job my wet bag is on its way, thanks for information.🤩

[@tinanicholls5988]

Hi This is my first time watching your tutorial,I'm no sower,I dont have a sewing machine,would like to try making something tho, I love your video on reuseable make up pads,great advice from you hun,thank you

[@emilyxadrienne]

Thank you for this amazing tutorial! I can't wait to make my own and customize the fabric :)

[@TTimeConscious]

I just sewed some pads, they are a bit wonky, but I am learning. Just feel so grateful for your tutorials. ❤️ Now I have to gather some courage and try to sew a zipper!!! You are an inspiring teacher, thank you for all the effort and work you put into your channel. 🙏🏻⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐

[@billettescrafts]

Thank you 🥺😭❤️👏

[@collef1136]

You can do the zipper!! Follow her video while you do it. So easy. First zipper installed. I was so proud of myself. Super easy. Try it.👍

[@claremartin8633]

Thanks for sharing

[@billettescrafts]

Welcome!!!

[@StitchesAndGrace]

Great video! I was planning to make some for my Etsy shop (StitchesAndGrace). I’m thinking I may do just a pretty PUL tho and not another layer. Thank you for uploading this tutorial, it came just in time😀

[@billettescrafts]

Your welcome! I’ve done one with just the pretty PUL layer and I did not like the way it looked. To me, the edges felt unfinished and I wanted to pick my own fabrics to use 👏

[@suzieburke6237]

Thank you. Very nicely done..

[@emilyslittlebooknook-8043]

I can't wait till my fabric comes so I can start making these and pads for Operation Christmas child /myself

[@alldaymusiclover107]

Hi! I know it was 2 years ago but how did it go? I was approached, by a small group member, to make some pads and pouches for our Operation Christmas Child project this year. This is my first time doing this and I think Billette's videos are excellent. I made a couple of samples using flannel for my topper, batting for the core and PUL for the waterproof backer fabric. I also added 2 layers of t-shirt cotton fabric because (in my searching) another video showed it this way. I would definitely appreciate any comments, tips or suggestions. Thank you in advance.

[@starcreativestudio01]

Found it! Thanks! 💖

[@nikkideleon4787]

Hello! I just found your channel and I am so excited that I did! Quick question about the bag. Why didn't you sew the waterproof fabric to the pretty fabric? I feel like I would get annoyed that the pul could twist or move around. Was it for a specific reason?? Thanks! 😊

[@billettescrafts]

I like to be able to air dry and wash and pull the inside layer out a bit to dry it

[@kameamepopcorn9660]

Bonjour from France. Merci ; D

[@GrammaPatriot]

Love this! Where can i buy “pull” fabric from?🤪

[@billettescrafts]

Etsy.com I buy mine in bulk on a bolt on Amazon

[@kerryclark7170]

Thank you so much.

[@cassiepena1892]

Where could I get the zippers from?? I am going to try to make these soon and I just need zippers!! Thank you for this video! ♥️

[@billettescrafts]

Try the shop zippit on Etsy 👏

[@cassiepena1892]

Thank you!

[@celyguzman7149]

I will like to learn how to make a wet bag for my cloth pads with a hanger

[@ginam3940]

The waterproof fabric is really hard for me to feed through the machine. It's a little easier on the serger. When you sewed the zipper in, did you use a zipper foot? I couldn't tell, but it didn't look like you did.

[@billettescrafts]

No I didn’t use a zipper foot. Just go slow and don’t get frustrated. The PUL can be tricky but stay patient😁

[@mikaamberthekittens6368]

Which sewing machine do you use?

[@SoniaScrapbook]

what is the name of the waterproof material for the lining, is it still considered fabric for sewing? Not sure how to search for it to purchase. I'm new to sewing and confused so I appreciate the guidance. Thanks in advance.

[@billettescrafts]

P.U.L. Amazon or Etsy. Yes it’s waterproof and is considered fabric 😛

[@SoniaScrapbook]

@@billettescrafts Got it, thanks!

[@tinavanvliet2225]

Where would you buy the inner water proof fabric? What is it called?

[@billettescrafts]

PUL. Polyurethane laminate. Etsy or Amazon

[@celyguzman7149]

Where did you get that pul fabric with out print?

[@billettescrafts]

Amazon

[@romeoromeo1211]

[@amorgan824]

Does this work wth ripstop nylon?

[@billettescrafts]

I’m not sure, give it a try

[@kathyreichard7029]

What is a wet bag

[@billettescrafts]

Waterproof lining. Allowing for carrying of soiled items

[@jacksongrandma]

I'm laughing so hard at myself. What a dummy. I've watched your directions twice and I was trying to figure out what "pull"l fabric was. It took the longest time to hear " pool". Thanks for the fun.

[@billettescrafts]

😂

[@martinjones5725]

nice...but ewwww....lol

[@billettescrafts]

Why eww? You could use a wetbag for lots of things. swimsuit, dirty clothes while traveling, cocaine... you know, everyday stuff😉🥴

[@martinjones5725]

@@billettescrafts lol....i did think of something you could make though.....a heavy duty work apron.....more heavy duty than your "egg" apron....maybe made from canvas, or the like.....more for a guy to wear ya know......

[@BraidsbyAshleyA]

@@billettescrafts I’m dying you said COCAINE 😂😂😂 best use of a wet bag yet.
