Hi Jenny (from another Jenny, but in Australia), I'm guessing you probably won't see my comment as this tutorial was made 7 years ago, but I wanted to acknowledge what a great teacher and fabulous person you are. I haven't dkne any sewing for 40 years, but you have inspired me to have a go at making a tote (and a zippered pouch I watched you make in another of your tutorials), and some project bags for my crocheting and knitting projects. My sewing machine died 40 years ago, so I am hoping my late grandmother's sewing machine still works. It's almost 50 years old so fingers crossed lol. I absolutely love your long tutorials, so thankyou for being you, and helping me through my 'blue days'. Big hugs from me to you xxxx

I don't think they read the comments Jenny B. But I did 😊. I'm working on some tote bags myself and it's always great to get some tips and a refresher course- visual. I hope today isn't a blue day for you.🙏🩷🤗🇨🇦

I found, in making this project, if you use interfacing on the pockets before you sew it together, it makes the pocket a big sturdier. LOVE, LOVE this tutorial. Matter of fact, I love all of Jenny's tutorials. Have learned so much.

I had seen this before and thought why make one so big. Now I belong to a quilt guild, and what a great bag to use for workshops and outings. Will hold my cutting mat and pressing board and fabric - everything I'll need. I think I'll make a couple inside pockets too for my rulers and things. Thanks Jenny. Your videos are the greatest.

Your instructions are so easy to follow. I love your laugh, and the way you say be careful and don’t cut your bag, or make sure your cutting mat doesn’t have fabric underneath the piece you are cutting. It makes me think this is something you may have done. I know I have to remind myself to slow down or I will get careless and end up having to redo something. Thank you so much!

Jenny. You continue to make things easy and fun for us. I have never been interested in making a bag since I thought it would be too complex. ThAnks for pro ing otherwise. I am a forever fan of Missouri Star. Have seen you in person twice, have a subscription to Block magazine, love the "daily deals", and have your KZbin site on " favorites. Love what your family has done for that small.town too. My long-term goal is a trip to your new Retreat facility along with lots of local shopping. God bless you and your family .

Jenny I'd like to thank you for getting me back in the groovy of sewing again. My second project had me so overwhelmed I dropped sewing for over a year. Watching this video on how easy projects can be got me back into the game. I'm finally finishing my second project and going to make this tote and two zipper pouches (from your other vids) matching. And the machine pad! I have enough scraps after two projects to make that cute pad. So from me to you Jenny of Missouri Star. Thank you.

When I make my bags, I leave the opening at the top. Then when I turn it inside out, I fold the opening down to the same size as the seam and it totally disappears when I stitch around the top of the bag and looks very finished. I will definitely make some of these charm square bags.

Jenny; I have seen this video a little while ago, and recently I tried to make the same bag, less the pocket , Sadly my materials that I chose were not enough to be full length as yours, but using the same method except for length I made and fastened in the bag, when I made the inside piece I wanted the overlap of inside material to be sewn in at top and folded down, for a look I wanted, silly aye? After that was done I sewed in handles several lines for the firm handle. For a first-ever quilted bag, I am happy. But you inspire me to do well. I will do 2 more to use for shopping. I am happy I can go to youtube and watch your videos to keep learning. You are so patient and kind. Thank you for all you do to help me and others. Jean one of your millions of fans.
