Lola Crossbody Tutorial

[@wendysolomonson1827]

I really like this pattern. I'm amazed at how nice the lining fits in the bag, that does not happen often without adjusting the seam allowance. And the divider is something my customers have been asking for.

[@pattischockert5666]

I just made a large Lola. Thank you, thank you!!! You are an excellent teacher, I just can’t believe I made this Lola. Thank you again

[@gerrybford]

Very late to the party! You popped up on my KZbin feed and what a fantastic tutorial. It made me feel I could make this bag without the pattern! Thank you so much. Now subscribed , liked and added to my favourites. From across the Pond in the U.K.

[@SewManyCreations]

Thank you! The pattern is availble on my website when you're ready 😊

[@agovernale]

So happy you have a tutorial! I am on my way to get the pattern. I am "visual" learner and soooo thrilled you show how. Great instructions!

[@williamaustin4422]

Just finished my Lola! The tutorial was great! Thank you Jess! I love it ❤

[@bonnief8448]

You voice is great for video. Easy to see what's happening to. Will go get your pattern.. Good job!

[@QuiltedPigPhoebe]

Thank you for the great tutorial. I watched the video before buying the pattern and then again before getting started. The pattern was great, but I really appreciated the extra tips. My bag turned out great!

[@lindajohnson3126]

Excellent tutorial. Clear and concise so that even a beginner can make this bag. Thank you so much!

[@SewManyCreations]

Thank you so much!

[@marilynm.329]

This bag is so versatile! Bought the pattern today….off to my sewing room.

Hi, just found your site, wow, thank you for all the tips and tricks, clear and concise and easy to follow. Luv luv luv ❤️

Great part and tutorial!!

[@vernahernon8559]

Love your tutorials! So many patterns, sew little time 😀🌞

[@susanfinn7653]

I love the pattern but have not mastered the recessed pocket. I have an adorable purse but I think I am going to take out the recessed pocket as mine did not come out well.

[@beckymoffitt7705]

Thank you, I just bought the pattern😊

[@michelecullen7995]

Love this bag! Thank you for your helpful tutorials 😊

[@cherylgonring418]

Great tutorial. Would be nice to mention what size/type needle and thread to use. I'm looking forward to making my own Lola. Thank you!

[@SewManyCreations]

I use a 90/14 microtex or topstitch needle and Aurifil 40wt thread. 😊

[@pennyblake3501]

Could you do the 45 degree angle method to attach the two strips together? I had noticed that you did in other handles.

[@SewManyCreations]

Yes of course you can! I don’t typically join any handles that way but I’m sure you’ve seen other do that. Whatever you prefer!

[@rosihancock4]

Hello, new to your page and I want to make this bag, but it would be my first. Do you have more detailed video with measurements? I love the divider and pockets! Ty ty

[@SewManyCreations]

No because this is a pattern I sell. You would need to purchase it to get the measurements.

[@mehr6362]

Hi your tutorial is amazing I love it. Would you like to make a wallet making tutorial.

[@mjp5129]

I have trouble with decor bond. When I turn my bag, it wrinkles. Can’t seem to iron it out. Could be I’m not using enough heat??

[@alisawright1155]

I've seen bag makers put interfacing or E6000 behind the handmade label. Is that something that you recommend as well or does it not matter that much?

[@SewManyCreations]

You absolutely can, it won't ever hurt to add more security to a piece of hardware. I typically don't for tags because they aren't weight bearing but again, never hurts to be safe!

[@alisawright1155]

@@SewManyCreations Thank you for replying! I'm new to bag making and it's always good to get multiple views and techniques so I truly appreciate your help!

[@valeriekushner5003]

Where can I get the metal Hand Made tags?

[@pamlarkin5405]

It would be very helpful to use fabrics that look different front and back. I have listened, watched, followed and still put the 2nd back piece on backwards. Ive taken it off twice, thought i finally had it but no. Beyond frustrated.

[@SewManyCreations]

@@pamlarkin5405 if you read the steps in the pattern while working it will tell you exactly how to line up your fabrics (right side up, wrong side up, etc). The free tutorial that I provided is to help assist.

[@pamlarkin5405]

Yes, I appreciate having the video assist very much!

[@heleneikerenkotter2950]

When you made the strap , sewing the two pieces together in a diagonal would have eliminated bulk beautifully .

[@princess-sofyiamandy9958]

It would have been so helpful to put a link to the pattern itself for people like myself who are a bit on the slower side
