I love, love, love this. Just bought the pattern. Thanks Jess for another great pattern and tutorial.

[@jillbruce3624]

Great bag and so versatile. Please do the small bag and wallet too.

[@ambergorham7108]

“Will you show me how to make one for myself?” “Go watch the video” 😂😂😂 sounds like dialogues with me and my children. This is so cute!! Can’t wait to make one for myself!

[@lisaneuscheler772]

Perfect for going to a farmer's market! I just ordered the pattern. Thanks for your awesome videos.

[@anjapoehlmann]

Jess, I've been watching your videos for months and thanks to you, I managed to make lots of bags that I adore. I love how enthusiastic you are about everything you make. Totally infectious joy!

[@sewhappysarahr8912]

I have been looking for a bag for travel for cosmetics, etc...like a train case. I think this may work with some heavier stabilizer! I am fairly new to bag making but feel confident that I could do this. Thank you for the zipper instructions, I want to use that technique in all my bags.

[@irenelepley9916]

I made this bag today! I had installed a zipper like this before so that didn’t bother me! I really like it, I put a lot of sewing tools in it, so when I get together with friend to quilt, I can grab it and go. I put in a really stiff bottom in it . Thanks for your videos!

[@marcejosev7865]

❤ awesome tutorial , as always !!!Yes please the extras !!!! Could you PLEASE make a tutorial for the Festival hip bag from the same designer ?

[@myrnarose5743]

I love your enthusiasm!

[@carrie9833]

Bought this pattern and made this bag after watching this video. Watched you make it 3 more times and just finished my first. It is absolutely adorable. It came together really quickly. Thanks for the inspiration.

[@lisaneuscheler772]

I'm struggling with getting the decovil to adhere to the jelly vinyl. I was sewing on the front pockets, it came detached and is all bubbly and wonky! I can't undo the pockets! Lots of cuss words were involved! Do you have a video about fusing interfacing to vinyl?

[@dirstelkelly7620]

Thank you! I used your tutorial to help with the zipper placard - I was getting very stuck with that. Mine looks great and I learned some things here too!

[@Loubie-Lou]

The fabric is hysterical!

[@chareseshinabery]

This is a great bag for knitters! I can see my bulky sweater project in that bag! I totally need this pattern! ❤❤

[@marygrace7538]

Such a fun project… Love Kandou patterns .. great video Jess and thanks for the discount code.. yes please to the add ons 💜

[@prariegirl72]

I would definitely like to see the other 2 projects! That would be an awesome replacement to my current sewing box! I would put my most used sewing tools in it!!

[@laurasmith6146]

This needs to be one of our Bag making Bee kits. 😂🤣 I love it! ❤

[@brendabrown4356]

Love it - just ordered. Romantic picnic for me & I think my 2 girls (25 & 26) will love it for there cosmetics.

[@OklaRoots]

Awwww I love those ideas!!

[@elainestephens5906]

JACKSONVILLE JAGQUARS !!! Hooray for you !!! THAT is a great bag and a darling girl !!!

[@suzierayne1737]

Thank you so much for showing this! I’m just about finished making one for my great nephew’s nursery goodies. It is so adorable and surprisingly faster and easier to make than I thought. Excellent gift suggestion!

[@pjinlaca5489]

Diaper bag is what I’m going to be using this for. So cute. Thanks for going thru the whole thing! Really helpful 🎉

[@mikeelliott4996]

Just purchased , can’t wait to make one or ten 😀 as always great tutorial . Happy Thanksgiving to you and your family ❤

[@OklaRoots]

Thank you! You too!

[@mikeelliott4996]

[@1anita1m]

It's beautiful, I love it! Your explanations and demonstration are so easy for me to follow. Thank you so much for sharing. ❤

[@marypatsoderbergsalo8610]

Drink on “snacks” 😂 - lol Just bought the pattern and spinning with all the ideas for this!

[@asmileisspecial]

Please do the extras too, I love this case!

[@annweitoish8856]

LOVE LOVE THIS!!❤😂🎉😊

[@paulaarchacki8200]

Thank you for this video. You helped me from losing my mind while making the lining!!!! Haha it came out beautifully 😅

[@pm_davidjones]

When I saw this, the first thing I thought of was using waterproof canvas for a gardening bag.

[@PeggyFlowersCreations]

I have several vintage sewing machines that I usually service. This would be great to hold all the tools I use.

[@OklaRoots]

Yes! Love that idea

[@Dinky333]

Hi Jess, FYI, Alot of us do this to sell or give as gifts. Speaking for myself I dont make anything for my work rooms i buy those. its less expensive. So please go on that as we are all learning here .I believe. I haven't sewn for years therefor there are alot of new items like Jelly vinyl or patterned clear vinyl ,soft vinyl and so forth. Deco light and heavy , I did use those but not a real good fan of them. But if you want a stiff bag or clutch /pouch then I would use those but if your going to Quilt most would like it soft. So please help us out and lets us know both ways. Your a sweetheart with lots of education and you have a good sense of humor. I have been watching you for a couple of months now. I like your take on the different styles and ways of doing things. Your daughter is so cute.

[@karenwilson2958]

This is a great Baby shower gift !

[@cindycrisman3414]

Fun bag and good for gifting. I think I will need to try leaving the lining open as I don’t have good luck in perfecting the outside closure

[@OklaRoots]

Great idea!

[@MerryMatrixBreaker]

I’d love a tutorial on the drawstring inserts!

[@pzzldmom]

Mila is so pretty... and just a duplicate of you!! I'm going to make this for myself! I'm going to lower one of the short ends and turn this into a dog carrier for my little yorkie...aka Elle Woods and Bruiser!! 👠💄👛🐩

[@penguinepenguin6193]

I suggested this one yesterday and here it is 😂 your just that good lol

[@OklaRoots]

You’re the magic!

[@LindaArmstrong-q7g]

I love this project and would like to see the addition coordinating projects. I was unable to get to the pattern website, any suggestions?

[@antheacanoville9873]

i love it can you give the measurement of the basket plls

[@bjc3045]

Your videos are awesome! Please do the videos for the other two projects!

[@carolinebrooke4502]

Fabulous Video Jess! Thank you so much for this masterclass in making the Crafter's Tote!

[@kathymalmquist901]

Yes, plz do the extra ideas !

[@antiquelady60]

I want to something for each of my family members (only 4). I'm thinking that with masculine fabric I could make this for my son-in-law and fill it with snacks and/or emergency supplies to leave in the car. (first aid, tire pressure gauge, flares, etc.)

[@lucyhavrilla8949]

REMARKABLE!!!!!! I WILL TRY THIS THANK YOU!❤

[@OklaRoots]

Please do!

[@createbeautifulyou]

Yes please to drawstring video! 😊👍🏼❤

[@maryannnewsham7714]

I can't wait to get this pattern and make this project. Can you please tell me where you get your waterproof water resistant and wax canvas. Thanks.

[@BNJBarber]

Love this bag and very grateful for the tutorial! Would it be possible to use a separating zipper instead of the style used here? I’m thinking of using one because it will be better looking and make access to the inside of the bag easier. Or not?

[@MEC03]

Mila is adorable. 😃

[@OklaRoots]

Awww thank you!

[@BNJBarber]

Hi Jess, still hoping you are someone can answer a couple questions. 1: Can I use a separating zipper instead of the style used here? 2: You said you used 100 wt poly in the bobbin. This surprised me as the 45 wt side would look so much better than the 100 wt side of the sewn seam. At any point did you switch to a 40-50 wt thread? Like on the strap? 3: which version of the two totes you showed had the stiffest sides? I want mine to have stiff sides. 4: What water resistant fabric did you use and where do you buy it? I hooe you will see this and respond. Many thanks!

[@elizabethsmith7662]

😊love this. cantwait to make it

[@georgycolson9671]

where did you get that fabric??? Love it!

[@chachi1160]

Do you have a pattern for scrapbooking supplies? Scissors pens etc. I’m going to try this for it see how it turns out. Love your channel

[@marcejosev7865]

😂 ❤ love you told Mila to watch the video to learn how to make it !!!!

[@OklaRoots]

😂😂😂

[@diannecarlos]

could you do it as a drop in lining

[@annweitoish8856]

I another wait to make one

[@radhanadevi]

Jessica I really want to make this tool bag for my daughter . Where can I get the pattern? I noticed you were saying pice E in the video . Is there a pattern I can purchase ?

[@catherinecharlwood4546]

Your videos are great. A little tip, to pass along, finger pressing is ok, but can be improved with a little roller. Quick, and they produce a firmer fold when you are ready to topstitch

[@OklaRoots]

Thanks for the tip!

[@lisaneuscheler772]

What type/weight of vinyl are you using for this?

[@sharonhenley2305]

Please tell us where you got the fabulous dog fabric you made the sample bag out of.

[@GABalvy]

It's from the new Tula Pink line called "Besties"

[@OklaRoots]

Yes this! It’s Tula Pink. I order mine from Fat Quarter Shop

[@LuvinaVasquez]

Has Mila starting sewing with you on anything? Does she want to take after momma and sew stuff like you?

[@melissafrentz9183]

What is a good substitute for decovil light? I can NEVER find it

[@Rebjacjul]

Sometimes I use a combo of decorbond on top of a featherweight interfacing, but it depends on what exterior fabric you use and what you’re making.

[@shannona6533]

Did you try Wawak? Recently they seem to have this in stock.

[@teresamonday81]

My husband paints. So I'm gonna make this for him to transport paints and brushes and misc supplies.

[@OklaRoots]

Awwww what a sweet gift!

[@flc9735]
