Let's Sew a Classic Canvas Tote by Rosie & David Patterns

[@vn3734]

You are the BEST sewing instructor I have ever had! Thank you for your soothing voice, helpful hints, clear, concise instructions, excellent pictures we can actually SEE as you're sewing, and the time you spend showing each step! The fact this is a FREE pattern is the "icing on the cake"! Thank you!

[@evachallen4447]

This is so great, thank you Rosie!! Am looking to sew something similar to L.L. Bean's Boat & Tote bag, and think this is a perfect alternative!

[@lindaphillips1481]

Cute! Cute! That zipper technique is the jam! WOW!

[@esworden]

Thank you! I learn so much from your tutorials! I have 2 questions: 1. What is the advantage of using a continuous zipper? Is it function, esthetics, or something else? And 2. What type/weight of thread are you using? I really appreciate you telling us the details, like stitch length and seam allowance.

[@cathyjencks5107]

Your videos are always so detailed and clear. Thank you! I’ve learned so much watching you.

[@kelleymckell]

Thank you! Love this classic look. Old school canvas with ticking - so good! You have once again managed to reinvent the wheel. So many times I wondered what in the world you were doing only find myself saying , "Aha! Now I get it." LOL Thanks again. :)

[@RosiesArtStudio]

Thank you once again for your kind comments and thanks for watching!

[@debbiewhite3270]

Loved ur video. I'm teaching a friend to make a bag & this is something she can follow. TY

[@Kera.S.]

I have been wanting to make some canvas totes to put some Scrappy Appliqué panels on. This couldn't have come at a better time! THANK YOU SO VERY MUCH ❣️ 🤗 💙

[@RosiesArtStudio]

You are so welcome! Thanks for watching!

[@LebecEgirlSews]

Thank you so much Rosie !!! I have always wanted to learn how to do the recessed zipper. I noticed how well you lined up all the stripes...looked great! Sure shows your experience!

[@RosiesArtStudio]

I can not take credit for lining up the stripes…that was purely by chance…lol. thanks for watching!

[@LeslieKingcraft]

Thank you Rosie! You are so generous with your talent and time 😊

[@RosiesArtStudio]

You are so welcome! Thanks for watching!

[@sheilawarner6277]

This is a beautiful bag I have only been sewing for about a year I've never made anything with a continuous zipper but your videos are so helpful I'm definitely going to try this one 😊

[@RosiesArtStudio]

I am glad to hear you want to make the bag. Thanks for watching!

[@Clearymartin]

I'm so glad this came out so I can make one for my soon to be future daughter in law! She will love this style for their honeymoon trip in April!

[@RosiesArtStudio]

I can’t wait to see yours! Please post pics in the FB group. Thanks for watching!

[@Clearymartin]

I finished and I uploaded to the FB group! Going to try again and this time make the handles longer and maybe do some embroidery on the both pockets! Thank you so much, learned a lot of new things! Carol

[@janelaffan7274]

That is a super bag and your teaching method is simply the best as Tina sang. I most certainly will have a go at this once I have made the other patterns I have of yours. Thank you so much. 😁

[@sallystapleton4237]

Thank you Rosie for another wonderful pattern and tutorial..you must have been reading my mind as this is something that I have been wanting to make for ages as a travel bag. If they come out okay I will post on Facebook 😱🤣 xx

[@deike9361]

You have the best videos!

[@RosiesArtStudio]

Thank you for your kind comment and thanks for watching!

[@grandme1234]

You are an awesome instructor. Thank you

[@DebieBodjanac]

Why is my lining coming out so baggie? I thought I measured correctly for the lining pieces. Thank you Rosie for a wonderful free pattern and detailed video tutorial.

[@dianaviera6228]

I love that! I can see this being a cute lunch bag! 💜

[@judyjaspers1313]

Great video!

[@RosiesArtStudio]

Thanks and thanks for watching!

[@sshear57]

I love this tote. Plan on making one for me but my granddaughter wants a very large one. She has two youngsters (yep I'm a greatgrandma!) and needs almost a suitcase when she goes anywhere with them. Do you think I can enlarge this or do you have different sizes? Thanks so much for your clear and concise tutorials.

[@CraftyLoops]

What a lovely bag! I am pretty new to bag making and I've never seen a zip done this way before...it's fantastic! I would love to make this bag but I don't use facebook. Is the project sheet only available for Facebook users? Sorry to be a pest. This tutorial is fabulous. Lee xx

[@Sewlady718]

I love all your videos and this is the only one I haven't made yet, but it's on the list. Question for you....what do you use to mark your lines when you don't use the friction pen? Thanks.

[@barbarayannatta9558]

Rosie love your patterns & watching your videos. But my question is about your iron. I’m in need of a new one. Can you please tell me what brand you use? Thank you

[@suzannem2880]

Thank You for all you do. Is there anyway to get the pattern without being a facebook member? I have some of your other patterns and I'm never disappointed. Thank You!!

[@RosiesArtStudio]

if you send me a message via my website I can get you the worksheet.

[@boonedogglepip5463]

I really love your tutorials. Thank you so much for sharing your time and talents. I am not on Facebook. Would you consider making this pattern available for purchase elsewhere?

[@RosiesArtStudio]

If you send me a message via my website I can get you the worksheet.

[@boonedogglepip5463]

@@RosiesArtStudio Thank you sew much, Rosie!

[@darylperry6985]

Thank you for the video Rosie! The wrench pops up when I click on the Project Sheet though and nothing in the FB files either, so cannot find the Project file unless you fix the link or add to files.😢

[@MGM-ej8wx]

Great video. 😊 Can this be sewn 100% on a domestic sewing machine?

[@gwennlee4028]

Why do you change machines? I love this bag and will get canvas for it tomorrow and hope it is domestic friendly. Thank you so much.

[@cledesma2409]

Rosie, I didn't see how you made the corners on the outer bag?

[@RosiesArtStudio]

The folds in the bottom crests the boxed bottom.

[@jaytopham8514]

Hi Rosie. How are you? I really love this tote pattern and would like to make. However, I have followed the link for the project sheet but it doesn't seem to be working. I also tried to look on your website for it but I cannot see it there either. Could you advise how I get to it please? Many thanks

[@cherylwhitcomb9178]

Thank you Rosie. This bag is so practical and attractive.

[@ohquilter1291]

The link takes me to a page requesting me to log in or create an account? Log in to what? Create an account for what? If it's a fb group what am I logging into? I had fb open so I'm confused.

[@indikaruwiniseneviratne8225]

If I need a little bigger one how should I adjust the measurements?

[@galejohnson8086]

Does your juke 1541S go around tight curves well?

[@RosiesArtStudio]

yes it does.

[@suestrain6843]

Rosie I can’t seem to find the project sheet to download can you help me please

[@RosiesArtStudio]
