how to sew crossbody bag with zipper pockets + card slots - SALI crossbody bag project

[@aimee-made]

I just made this bag and I love it! Your instructions are so easy to follow, and I love that you are very specific about seam allowances and things to watch out for (like making sure the zipper teeth face the lining when sewing the entire bag together). It’s these little reminders that helped make me feel successful! (And I didn’t have to rip anything out and do-over!!) ❤

Thank you so much for a great tutorial. I made this bag for a trip I took last year to Europe. It’s the only bag I have used since! I like this so much that I have to make another one to replace this one that has worn out! Thank you!!!!

[@LeslieKingcraft]

Just made it and it turned out beautifully! I love the top zip method! I added an inside zip pocket instead of a slip pocket. Thank you again and again Yoan!

[@YoanSewingStudio]

Glad to hear that Leslie, great idea on adding inner zipped pocket instead ❤️

[@nanniibee]

I made the smaller version for my daughter some time ago as she needed a bag to go to a concert that was big enough to hold phone, cash and keys but too small to hold alcohol Yesterday I wanted to make it bigger for myself ... jumped straight onto your channel and tahdahhhh wish granted 🧚‍♀️ making today. Thank you again for sharing your wonderful talents free of charge. You are amazing 🥰

[@YoanSewingStudio]

I’m so excited about this! Could you change the design to make it a zip around wallet? I love the size and the strap and think it would be awesome for travel!

[@GloriaHasberry]

Hermosas 😊 gracias Yoan ,abrazos .

[@kategraceewing1029]

I love this bag I am going to make this bag and make the card slot in my purse and I am going to be making your one wallet with the I'd slot

[@cleme2558]

In the pocket with the card slots, can you put card slots on both sides, instead of the rfid fabric? I made your other one like this but made it an inch wider. I also added a slip pocket on the back outside panel. Love it., Now I want to do the card slots.

[@asheryl1966]

Thanks for the tutorial.

You're welcome Sheryl!

Thank you! 😊

[@cathyellington7599]

If I use a number 5 zipper do I need to make any adjustments? I have made so many of your patterns and I love all of the patterns. Especially love how you keep your printed instructions to only a few pages. I have bought other patterns and I never use the instructions because I always follow the videos but have to buy whole thing to get pattern. Only need three or more pages but get 30. Thank you for doing such a great job teaching.

[@YoanSewingStudio]

Hi Cathy, no you don't have to, though you can slightly increase the seam allowances to scant 3/8" when sewing the zippers, since size #5 has wider tape. Thank you for your kind words.

[@beckyschlatter3654]

5:29 This is the perfect bag for me and I have cut out all pieces to begin. Only one question: If I use lining fabric instead of RFID blocking fabric, will it matter which way fabric faces, front or back? Thank you.

[@YoanSewingStudio]

If your fabric has the right side and the wrong side then yes, you need to lay the lining fabric right side down. Have fun with your project ♥️

[@cathyellington7599]

How would you do the main zipper closure using #5 zipper tape by the yard?

[@YoanSewingStudio]

Download the PDF cutting instructions here : bit.ly/3vFqRqS I also added RFID blocking fabric (panel 6), but it's optional, you may use the interior fabric instead. Hope you enjoy this video ❤

[@carolcross2000]

Love this bag. I need to make it slightly larger - is there an easy way to do this

[@mariaeugeniabalcorta7810]

Plis en spanish directions. Thank you

[@laurineideconceicao2581]

Bolsas lindas

[@jBphotos2007]

Was wondering if you think this would get too bulky to sew if I use blue jean material? I'm not super experienced with sewing but think I could definitely make one. Your video explains everything so well. Thank you for this super cute design! Any thoughts would be appreciated!

[@YoanSewingStudio]

yes you can use jeans material, just leave out the interfacing :)

[@kimberlyeverett8979]

Thanks Yoan! Always such great tutorials! Would using a 3/4 inch D ring and swivel hook work? That's just what I have on hand. Thanks

[@YoanSewingStudio]

yes, shouldn't be a problem, just adjust the strap measurements accordingly :)

[@user-ol2lr5wm1i]

How can I print the step by step tutorial?

[@sofiarodrigues3371]

Só entendo em português, Esse idioma não sei.

[@Novascotia101]

Would this bag be large enough for an iPhone 14 pro max?

[@cheetagurl5585]

Can you faux leather or vinyl instead of canvas for the bottom panel?

[@YoanSewingStudio]

Yes, somebody did use vinyl accent with no problem

[@user-jg9dt3bv3t]

👌👏👍
