Let's Create a Tote Bag in Any Size - Step-by-Step Sewing Tutorial

[@barbra429]

Thank You!! Absolutely Wonderful.

Thank You !! Thank You !! I found this measurement sheet to calculate and make covers for some boxes that I turned upside down to cover my sewing machines when I am not using them vs. using the fabric covers that came with the machines ( they look so much neater). But, after a few failed attempts at making the covers I scoured the internet to find the perfect measurements and came across your video. After seeing how you calculate it I can honestly say I am a little disappointed in myself because you have simplified something that I just could not wrap my head around. So, you have saved my day !! I have made two of them and they both turned out perfect !!

I have literally watched hundreds of You Tube videos on how to sew a tote/shopping bag; and, I haven’t seen any that are as concise and detailed as yours! You have helped me immeasurably. I have promised two of my granddaughters that I would make them totes for birthday/graduation and didn’t know how to create my own size and you have showed me how to do it effectively. Thank you so very much! I will gladly use your worksheets to customize the bags.

Rosie, I've been sewing totes for YEARS and never really got the desired measurements right. Your tute is a real eyeopener for me!!! I'm gobsmacked! No one ever mentions accomodation the seam allowances to the overall cut. Its so easy to confuse me as I get on in my years but this is a video that have have marked in several places AND I have downloaded the pdf worksheet! I can't thank you enough for sharing your time and talent with us. You inspire me to be a better sewist.

Hi Rosie. Thank you for the worksheet. I’ve used it and it is a great tool. Maybe in the future you can teach us how to modify the worksheet to add a zippered closure or recessed zipper.😁

[@nanettejernigan7338]

That would be wonderful! My first thought as well, after flying Frontier with one bag for a quick, cheap trip to Vegas

Thank you. Where can I find the chalk wheel you use. A link would be wonderful.

[@RosiesArtStudio]

It is made by Clover and you can find it anywhere. Try Amazon or a local quilting shop.

@@RosiesArtStudio - - Thank you 😊

[@beckyolencki4830]

Thanks for the tutorial and worksheet! I have never sewn on waxed canvas. What size needle do you use and do you use a special thread?

[@derrillcleary7682]

How do I print your work sheet pattern

[@arianafranco2199]

does it have to be in inches can i still do 10cm divided by two

[@ashwinikarve5106]

Excellent tutorial and thank you for the worksheet ..I am beginner in sewing and this worksheet will help me a lot ..just wanted to know what is the size of needle used ? Thank you ...Greetings from India

[@barbra429]

Do you have a Thanks button?

[@dankelley4703]

Thanks Rosie. Where do you find waxed canvas? What weight is used for totes and bags?

[@RosiesArtStudio]

I like to buy it from Big Duck Canvas and it is 10 ounce. There is more info in the description below the video.

[@dankelley4703]

@@RosiesArtStudio I found your link (didn’t see it before!) and used that. I think they are out of stock at the moment but I’ll use your link when they have some. Thanks.
