Leslie, I loved your tutorial….very informative. Love the pattern and the simple construction. Thank you….looking forward to seeing more of your designs and tutorials. 😍😍😍

Congrats on your first pattern! Tutorial is easy to follow. Well done!

Thanks for the video I really like your pattern, and congrats.

Thank you!

This looks like it will be fun to batch sew. I've been looking for a drop in lining bag to try also, so perfect timing! Can't wait to try this! 👜

I made this today and it’s so cute! Very easy too and I appreciate that. I have two questions. Do you have instructions for adding a recessed zipper and is there modification for the strap connectors or somewhere else to get the connectors bc they’re very expensive with the link. Thanks!

[@LeslieKingcraft]

Wow! Great pattern Leslie! Can’t wait to make it 😊. A question - could I do a zipper closure at the top and turn the bag out instead of a drop-in? My topstitching is atrocious and I invariably ruin this final step of drop-in patterns 🙄.

[@JoleeleeCreations]

I'm sure you could! Let's work on your topstitching though! Where do you struggle? What machine do you have

[@tammiestapleton9433]

Awesome❤

[@cm5142]

Any option for a tutorial without commercials for those of us who bought the pattern?

[@JoleeleeCreations]

KZbin Premium offers videos without the commercials. The small commercials help out the channels with a tiny bit of extra funds to help offset the cost of creating the videos. Thanks so for your support!

Love the video, and the pattern --- dislike the music that plays.....I would rather hear the clicking of the machine, to me it is soothing....... yeah I am different

[@JoleeleeCreations]

Thanks for the feedback. Feel free to check out the extended version video, there is no music in that one :)

[@simonelynch9872]

You might want to decrease the music sound, it jumps out at us. I'd rather have no sound at all when you fast forward your stitching. Otherwise, nice video.

[@JoleeleeCreations]

I totally understand! It normally is very soft, I'm not sure what happened-- and I can't edit it once it's been uploaded 😭 So sorry
