Empress Tote with a fabric panel

[@BATFAERY]

So, here I am! Just turned 70 years old on the 6th of October. I thoroughly enjoyed watching and learning you put together this Empress Tote. My daughter and I have endeavoured in bag making. Thank you for sharing your knowledge and person. You are a joy. You made my 70th birthday fun. I have watched you since before you painted that sewing machine green. (I watched you paint it, too.) I live on the Space Coast in Florida & have seen almost all launches from my front yard.

Love it, while your doing it I thought some piping in between would look pretty too.

I love the green color of the vinyl! Beautiful project!

[@BagmakerBarb]

Your bag is gorgeous! Thanks for the great tutorial! ❤️

I love how you entertain us. I’ve been making totes with panel inserts and you gave me another idea how to do them. I like to take people’s photos of their pets or family and put it on a bag.

I just bought the pattern! I am very excited to see what I come up with! So many possibilities, but not enough time! You are such a great teacher! Thank you for creating the videos! I appreciate you and all you do for us!

I'm thinking about turning that panel into a big front slip pocket. I plan to make one this weekend

[@gloriamccallum5447]

That is so pretty it turned out amazing

[@Shelly_Rie]

Love it. Don’t forget to sew the zipper pocket shut (unless I missed that bit). I’m cutting out my Empress now 😊

“Smidgy bit”… May now be my favorite thing to say… 😊

I reduced mine to 80% so I could use the vinyl included in the kit. Love it.

I like it a lot that you have 'your own' fingernails 🙂 Great bag! I love it.

[@SeamsLegit]

My false ones were excellent stilettos though ;)

[@SewFelicia]

With the seam squisher, it is a fantastic idea but I don’t habbe hand strength so I use the custom flat plates from Dreamy Bag Hardware in Tasmania in the rivet press and it works the same. And can use them to close fobs

[@helentrexler2570]

So pretty!!

Have you seen the Bat Company Bag? Looks like it could be up your alley. It’s by Hollow Bag Creations.

[@4golfing]

total fun night. could you advise how you do your logo on the vinyl pls? just love the bag thanks. also where did you get pliers and do they have a special name?

[@SeamsLegit]

There is a video in my embroidery playlist that shoes me doing it

[@narellemyors2080]

Where's your little roller thingy? Would it have helped with the cargo pockets, etc?

[@SeamsLegit]

Definitely would have!

[@narellemyors2080]

Why no more fake nails?

[@SeamsLegit]

My real nails need a rest. They are paper thin.
