Great video, this was really helpful. Thanks.

[@CalebWhitten]

Awesome video man! I might have to get you to make a diaper bag at some point for Cailee and Lou!

[@SailriteWorkbench]

I think that would be a fun project! Ill add it to our list.

How did you get the stitch line on the flap to hit the rivet hole perfectly as shown at 7:10 in the video?!

[@SailriteWorkbench]

I just take it slow when I near the endpoint, and I use the stitch length adjustment lever to shorten that last stitch however much i need to ensure it lands right at the beginning of the rivet hole. Then I replicated that stitch again to lock it in place.That rivet will also help secure that stitch line once it is installed. I hope that helps!

No exercise needed after turning that bag inside out 😂

[@SailriteWorkbench]

I burned some calories for sure! But it's always worth it when it finally flips right side out!
