[@conniel.4601]

One of the easiest ways I’ve seen to sew this bag, thanks.

[@SewMuchMooreInStore]

Enjoy!

[@michellehale8962]

I like this pattern and your instructions. Just the right amount. Thanks for the reminder and placement suggestion for label. I always forget to put it on!!

[@cathynuytten798]

This is the exact bag pattern I have been looking for for a month or two. Thank you so much for the free pattern and excellent tutorial! I will be making these for my husband and son for Christmas! New subscriber. Can’t wait to watch other videos you have made! Thanks again!

[@SewMuchMooreInStore]

So glad you found my video and pattern. Enjoy!

[@wandahoffberg9261]

Love your style of teaching.

[@michelec1962]

Great bag! I've made it several times. I use duckbill scissors to trim the excess fabric by the zipper!

[@SewMuchMooreInStore]

That’s brilliant 🤩

[@Noricocin]

Wow! I learned a new technique today!! Never seen a handle applied in this step! Thank you!!

[@SewMuchMooreInStore]

Noricocin I’m so glad you found this tutorial useful. Thanks for watching!

[@kateppp132]

I LOVE this tutorial! very clear instructions and beautiful finished product! i tried it out for myself with a fun UF themed fabric and it came out great thanks to your help! Thank you sooo much!

[@SewMuchMooreInStore]

Kate Padron I’m so glad you enjoyed it! Thanks for your kind words 💞

[@markwilliams1824]

One of the best I’ve watched! Love the carry handle too! Nice finishing touch 💙👍🏼

[@SewMuchMooreInStore]

Glad you liked it!

[@5678asdfzxcv]

Very nice !!! Easy to follow !!

[@lindalai9092]

I love the drop-in lining

[@SewMuchMooreInStore]

Thank you for your kind comment! Much Appreciated!

[@BeatlesFanSonia]

Fantastic!!!!! A million thanks for this video!

[@SewMuchMooreInStore]

Thank you for your kind words! Happy Sewing!

[@ScottTurnerformeindustrious]

Such a great tutorial! Can't wait to try making one! Thank you!

[@SewMuchMooreInStore]

Thank you for your kind words! Happy Sewing!

[@tinapankow394]

Thank you..loved it

[@carlatolentino7716]

Perfect I’m actually making one with that material for a gift

[@ProudGrammaMe]

Excellent tutorial. Enjoyed following along with you and will make probably a few of these. 👍👍. Always appreciate your tutorials and IG stories. Keep them coming.

[@SewMuchMooreInStore]

Thank you for your kind comment! Much Appreciated!

[@BeatlesFanSonia]

Ok, I made this! I used vinyl for the inside in one continuous piece. The part I couldn’t stitch on the machine when I put in the lining, I glued in place instead. I just gave it as a birthday present. It was perfect!

[@kateppp132]

I used vinyl as well! very perfect for durability and easy to wipe down

[@SewMuchMooreInStore]

great idea!

[@sharonarmstrong4578]

This is wonderful. thank you

[@anitaclayton6817]

This looks really easy. Thanks for great instructions.

[@lindafrazier4763]

I love your professional construction ! You have a special talent for teaching .... I did wonder about measurements for a longer bag..Do you have a suggestion ? Thank-you

[@SewMuchMooreInStore]

Linda Frazier I’m so glad you found this tutorial useful. For a longer sized bag, simply add a few inches to the existing measurements. Happy Sewing!

[@eliduryea77]

Well done!! 👏Can't wait to try thanks!

[@SewMuchMooreInStore]

Thank you for your kind comment! Much Appreciated!

[@maisawesome7005]

Very nice indeed!

[@maruguerrero4437]

Wowww!!! Hoy descubrí su canal y me pareció muy interesante! Y ese Necesser esta fabuloso !

[@HeartlandMakesAndOutdoors]

I have watched this a few times started out with a leather bag, didn't work, so trying again tonight with brown canvas, see if I can get it to work with canvas, the leather was too thick for the folds. So trying again. Thanks for posting and have a blessed week my friend. Dale

[@SewMuchMooreInStore]

thanks for your comment! Have a great day!

[@donna57]

Great tutorial

[@SewMuchMooreInStore]

Thanks! I hope you found it helpful!

[@lovelygirl1730]

Cute bag and my name is nicole too

[@SewMuchMooreInStore]

Thanks Nicole!

[@anainmazatlan]

Excellent tutorial with clear instructions. Thank you!😊 Only comment is to maybe leave out the background music when you're doing the instructing. It's just a little distracting. 🤔

[@josephina4792]

Agreed, I had to lower the volume and use close caption.

[@TinaPankow-do1vw]

Thank you

[@poohbear101]

That’s a very nice bag, turned out well. This is the first tutorial I’ve seen where the lining is sewn separately. Is there an advantage to doing it this way that I missed?

[@SewMuchMooreInStore]

I’ve found there are a few types of preferences with bag making. Drop lining (this tutorial), turning right side out, and raw edge. It’s all a matter of preference. 💕

[@BeatlesFanSonia]

Love love love this video! I couldn’t get the supplies list or sizes to cut the fabric though!

[@SewMuchMooreInStore]

BeatlesFanSonia the supplies list and measurements info can be found on my website: www.sewmuchmoore.com/makeup-and-shaving-bag-tutorial/ I’m glad you liked the video 💝

[@BeatlesFanSonia]

Sew Much Moore In Store thank you!

[@janemiley2323]

Thank you, thank you!! Excellent clear stress free instruction, best ive seen. 20 out of 10. 😁

[@SewMuchMooreInStore]

Wow! Thanks so much!

[@franciscamartinezrabal329]

Que bonito! Me ha encantado Muchas gracias

[@SewMuchMooreInStore]

De Nada!

[@GCC808]

Awesome tutorial!!! Thank you!!!

[@SewMuchMooreInStore]

Thank you for your kind comment! Much Appreciated!

[@titchsmuts7033]

hi Nicole, i love your shaving bag, have made a few! I have a question? Have you every made the exterior fabric measurements larger, ie: 15" x 19.5". Obviously I would have to enlarge the interior fabric too.Titch (Australia)

[@SewMuchMooreInStore]

I’ve taken the same design and made it several different sizes. My pattern will only give you the instructions to make this specific size but feel confident in playing around with adjusting a size to suit your own needs.

[@barbaracarnevale1765]

Loved your tutorial, but would have appreciate you showing the measurements of all the materials needed.

[@SewMuchMooreInStore]

Thanks for your comment! You can find the measurements in the pattern. The pattern is listed in the description of the video. Here is the link also: www.sewmuchmoore.com/boxy-pouch-sewing-tutorial/

[@sheilafraser5438]

Great tutorial, love the music 😀

[@SewMuchMooreInStore]

Thank you for your kind comment! Much Appreciated!

[@carlatolentino7716]

I’m using that same fabric and canvas as the inside for the duffel bag, the toiletries bag I want to make it a little firmer so maybe fleece and canvas for the inside

[@SewMuchMooreInStore]

If you want stability, the best thing to use is sew-in foam. Something like soft n stable

[@claudettebettis9463]

Love your pattern and directions but could not find how to get the pattern.

[@simonbanks6641]

Great video cheers :)

[@geauxdoe1]

Love your video. I’ve tried to make a bag, but my quilting machine keeps breaking needles when I see over zippers. Any advice?

[@SewMuchMooreInStore]

Try using a denim needle.

[@naokimura3605]

Loved it

[@SewMuchMooreInStore]

thanks!

[@evetteogden]

That is the coolest moving sewing machine feet I ever saw! What brand/model sewing machine are you using here?

[@SewMuchMooreInStore]

Evette Ogden that machine is an Industrial Juki DU1181N. I make allot of bags, so it’s great! You can learn more about this machine right here: www.sewmuchmoore.com/industrial-sewing-machine/

[@jeankeith7309]

What were the size of your small temples that you used to cut the corners? I love your bag? Going to make one of those! ❤️

[@ames0596]

great video!

[@SewMuchMooreInStore]

Thanks so much!

[@ismatshamim5550]

beautiful

[@SewMuchMooreInStore]

Thank you so much!

[@lavettabelzer4189]

Where are the dimensions? This bag is perfect size for what i want to do but what are the corner template demensions

[@SewMuchMooreInStore]

There is a link in the description of this video that takes you to the pattern which is listed on my website

[@judykennedy165]

Hello again, I couldn't find the measurements on your website??

[@JHejza1]

Love it!

[@SewMuchMooreInStore]

Thank you for your kind comment! Much Appreciated!

[@mklofanda5280]

The seam allowances are not clear...the lining zipper edge is too big without folding over the 1/4", then fold over another 1/4"...other than that...a beautiful bag and video instruction!

[@SewMuchMooreInStore]

Thanks for the feedback about seem allowances. I will need to go back and do an update on this pattern to make it more clear.

[@lezlig4570]

Could you add the lining at the same time you are doing the outside bag instead of making separate then adding it in? Just wondering.

[@SewMuchMooreInStore]

That is a different type of pattern. This is a drop in lining.

[@susan1098]

I absolutely LOVE this tutorial. I’m going to make this bag tonight. Can you tell me where you got your labels from. I would like to add them to my sewing projects 😊thanks.

[@SewMuchMooreInStore]

Susan Kellogg, I used a custom tag by Dutch Label Shop. You can get 15% off your custom label from Dutch Label Shop (Coupon Code: sewmuchmoore15)

[@susan1098]

I just found some on Amazon . 25 qty for $22.00. Is that a good price? There 1/2 wide. I just learned how to sew via utube 3 weeks ago. I love this bag and going to make it for my brother in-law for Christmas. Your tutorial was excellent! I just subscribed and turned on my notification bell 🛎 on.

[@SewMuchMooreInStore]

Susan Kellogg get whatever labels you like. I’m not familiar with the ones you are referencing. Love hearing about your sewing beginnings. That’s awesome!

[@judykennedy165]

Hello, what are the measurements for this shaving/makeup bag???

[@janetmcadamsbailey1874]

is this considered a Drop In Lining? Nice job.

[@SewMuchMooreInStore]

Janet McAdams Bailey yes! Exactly!

[@mariavann8183]

Can you please give the exact measurements for the outer fabric pieces? I have the sewing PDF, is it one fat quarter cut in half? Sorry, a little new to sewing.

[@SewMuchMooreInStore]

You can download the pattern for free. It just hit the link below this video.

[@CarlaFox-x3u]

What is the size of the square cardboard template you used for the cut-out corners? Thanks.

[@SewMuchMooreInStore]

I think it was 1.5 inches

[@margaretmurph3609]

Making the bag but what is the seam allowance

[@christinakannemeyer8641]

Hi there. I was looking for the measurement to make this bag but cannot access the site. 😢

[@SewMuchMooreInStore]

Try again. The site is available.

[@mamipautu1225]

I love your sewing machine i wonder how much those cost.

[@SewMuchMooreInStore]

I love it too! I created an entire article series about this machine. You can start here: www.sewmuchmoore.com/industrial-sewing-machine/

[@francoisethepot9414]

I would sew the lining with the main together the first pouch I did I sew the pouch first and put the zipper total disaster a bit what you did

[@SewMuchMooreInStore]

Francoise Thepot that is certainly an option. Your seams would se exposed in the inside, so that is why I showed the drop lining. 💝

[@carriefeylee630]

What is the inches on little cardboard for the corners?

[@SewMuchMooreInStore]

That is really up to you, but all the sea summers are listed in the PDF pattern ❤️

[@mariamason3062]

Which Juki do you have? How much do you love it?

[@SewMuchMooreInStore]

I currently own multiple Juki‘s. The one I used to make this bag was my industrial Juki. Here is the link to learn more: www.sewmuchmoore.com/industrial-sewing-machine/

[@LebecEgirlSews]

Thank you for the video. Do you have a video for your pin "bowel" in this video?

[@SewMuchMooreInStore]

If you are referring to my little fabric basket - I think I just followed a tutorial to make mine. I don't think there is a video with the pattern - sorry! fabricmutt.blogspot.com/2016/02/the-pixie-basket-tutorial.html

[@albafernea9330]

I don't really get to know how do you add the big white strap also the hand stichin by the sipper don't quite get to understand.

[@SewMuchMooreInStore]

Be sure to read my article for additional info. This is linked in the description of the video. If you still have questions or confusion, please let me know. I want to help you!

[@leannadodman1602]

is that wadding you use to hold its shape

[@SewMuchMooreInStore]

I call it quilt batting. I have linked a complete list of materials that I used for this project, just below the video.

[@manuelachristen8671]

Hi how big is the fabric ??? And the corner ? thank you for your respond . Manuela

[@SewMuchMooreInStore]

Manuela Christen check my website for the measurements www.sewmuchmoore.com/tag/shaving-bag-tutorial/

[@titchsmuts7033]

Can you tell me what seam allowance you did on both exterior & lining?

[@SewMuchMooreInStore]

Titch Smuts just follow the pattern instructions and it will turn out fine 😊

[@Wannaloom]

Sew Much Moore In Store I also didn’t see any seam allowances. I have the printed cutting measurements but there isn’t any seam allowances on that. I also didn’t see a reference to the seam allowances on your blog photos? Do I need to look elsewhere? Thanks so much. I’m at the part where you start to sew the bottom together and don’t want to mess up.

[@bethbilous4720]

what is the size of your cardboard cube?

[@rockinrobin2326]

Great tutorial but I was curious about how you tacked the lining down. I understand how you did it in the video but you added that you tack it down so it doesn’t shift. That was a step you mentioned but didn’t show. Thank you

[@SewMuchMooreInStore]

rockin' Robin thanks for your question! To prevent the lining from shifting, I will flip the finished bag inside out and add a couple stitches to each corner, ensuring that each stitch goes thru the batting. Hope that helps!

[@rockinrobin2326]

Sew Much Moore In Store thank you! I wasn’t sure if it would show on the outer fabric but if I just catch just the lining and batting then I see how it could work. (I’m still learning)

[@judykennedy165]

So this bag is made from 2 fat quarters??

[@janidemaree9704]

It needs pockets

[@SewMuchMooreInStore]

Great idea! You should add some!

[@janidemaree9704]

@@SewMuchMooreInStore I wish I could figure out how to do that I guess it would have to be a patch pocket.

[@SewMuchMooreInStore]

@@janidemaree9704 I recommend doing an inside zipper. Check out my video on the diva wallet. I’ll show you how to insert a zipper on that video.

[@janidemaree9704]

@@SewMuchMooreInStore That does not help me when I do box ends

[@SewMuchMooreInStore]

@@janidemaree9704 I was thinking you could do an instant zippered pocket on one of the sides. Or even both sides. I don’t think you’re inner pocket would be obstructed by the box ends.

Wow, what a great tutorial especially for beginners. I’m anxious to give one a try and also the free motion quilting. Do you happen to have the pattern for the little clip holder that you probably made in your video perfect size I’d love to make one of those too, thank you for sharing.
