Fantastic video!!

[@peggybray5450]

Have you tried the Tex 70 thread with an 18 needle works great I love this pattern and a lots of your patterns I’m new at making bags your videos are so helpful thank you so much

[@CountryCowDesigns]

Thanks. I haven’t yet. But I will be very soon

[@jackyf3505]

This was my first bag just over a year ago (plus the zipper closure) and the results were so good I made another one immediately! I got so many compliments on them which gave me such confidence right from the start. The only error I made with this one was I sewed across the top outer edges of the front exterior pocket before I basted on the foam (I didn't have rivets back then). As a result the foam wasn't anchored within the body of the bag so it tended to move a little within the layers. Not critical insofar as no-one else noticed it (or even quite understood when I pointed it out) but it's worth pointing out for other bag makers perhaps. Love your patterns, videos and the whole Country Cow vibe!

[@CountryCowDesigns]

Thank you 😃

[@sonialovesewing2396]

Jo, I know u will hit a Bigger home run with this clutch...I absolutely love & can't wait for it 😍 The tutorial u just did is it the same tutorial for the smaller u hv next to it? Thank u so much 💫

[@CountryCowDesigns]

It’s the same process for each size bag. You just need to adjust the pattern pieces as explained in step 1 👍🏼

[@sonialovesewing2396]

Thank u for a quick response

[@sonialovesewing2396]

@@CountryCowDesigns I forgot to add to the comment b4 when u mention about the tension of your HD9 sewing machine. Forgive me if I misunderstood but I hv the HD9 also. I learned that when I was having problems with the tension I hv to fiddle with the bobbin instead of the tension knob most of the time. I hope this helps

[@CountryCowDesigns]

@@sonialovesewing2396 thanks that’s really helpful! I was just wondering if I need to adjust my bobbin tension more so I’m glad you said something 😁

[@juliepearson5880]

Hi Jo love this pattern just a quick question about snipping into the sides I’m a bit paranoid about cutting too far could you sew the sides just down to the 3/8 seam allowance rather than snipping?

[@CountryCowDesigns]

Yes you could. But you will end up with bulky seams which won’t look as neat. Glad you like it

[@juliepearson5880]

@@CountryCowDesigns thanks Jo appreciate you always take the time to answer. I’ve learned so much from you 🩷

[@patriciastobbart9516]
