Yay...I think you're in my head...yet another pattern I've on my cutting table..just love to sew with you Kassiah.

The construction is very similar to the Boronia Bowler Bag, which I love, but on a smaller scale. Thanks for another wonderful tutorial! I will definitely be purchasing this pattern after seeing how cute this bag turns out!!

[@4golfing]

What a really unique bag. Doubt if I could do it with this video. Some tricky areas. Thanks for another entertaining of video watching.

[@cherylwhitcomb9178]

Thank you Kassiah. This is very similar to the Blue Calla Baronia Bowler, which I made recently. The pattern is written similarly for finishing on the corners….but Celine’s video has an alternate solution to finish without the binding. It’s kind of cool. Love how this turned out. I so enjoy watching you. I learn something every time.

[@justynatan4408]

Great bag, your color combo is so pretty!

[@SueZeeQue]

This design is AWESOME!!!! I love everything about it!! 🥰

Omgosh! I LOVE this bag. My regular machine is in the shop and I was able to make it on my Old Lady Singer "Tradition" which is the most basic machine out there. Thank you for a great tutorial!

[@KelleAnnRN]

I cannot WAIT to make this! thank you for your wonderful tutorial!

[@patricial2462]

Great tutorial with tips! I bought the pattern and will be making it soon. I agree that a stiletto is a very helpful tool when attaching zippers on a curve. Wonderful fabric choice. Love this pattern and how yours turned out! Thanks for taking us along.

[@ParchCraftAustralia]

Ooh it's a very cute little bag! I always love Suzanne's patterns. Terrific tutorial as always and your hair today? 10 out of 10! Lindy

[@benalilee125]

I made this bag the other week, the card slots I omitted instead I added pockets that can hold sanitizer, mini lysol spray, toilet seat covers (get them at Target pk for $3) and some mini packs of tylenol. Teacher Life bag.

Yay, can't wait to watch it! Another one from my list.

I think it’s good to see the mistakes. Especially knowing if you twist the zipper it’s fixable without ripping it out.

[@homedecor3257]

Nice idea my friend 🤗 🤗 👌👌👍😘 stay connected 👌

[@stephaniebabin2441]

Oh boy, figures I'm a bit late on this but maybe you will check back. I am just starting this bag and am getting all caught up on the different interfacings. I have never worked with decovil light but did order some (hasn't come in yet). However, I am making the bag out of a heavier, tapestry type material; which I work with quite a bit and generally use a fleece interfacing. I guess I could just wait (God forbid) and try the decovil on a scrap but I am wondering if two layers of interfacing is warranted on heavier material maybe just the decovil light?? Maybe I should just be patient (not!)

[@Quilt4Joy]

I love it ♥️

[@bjworksit1174]

Cool intro video!! 😄

[@jlfilbeck]

This is a great bag. I downloaded my pattern and excited to make one. Is there SVG files by chance.

[@juliawanyoike1694]

Hello thank you for taking time to make and share this great video. Did you have your labels made from someone or did you do them yourself? If so would you please share where you had them made. Thank you.

[@lanafultz4988]

Is there any way to put the zipper only on the top instead of all around? Other than that I love this pattern.

[@SiahSwag]

I’m sure there is a way to do that…

[@candacekramer4802]

I love this but I’m exhausted just watching you. I’ll put this on my to do when I’m more skilled.

[@MyChicalatina]

Hello. It’s a beautiful bag 🥰 but What about the wrinkles? Is it easy to get them away? Thanks 😊

[@SiahSwag]

Yes iron with Teflon sheet over it 😊

[@lisamoore8408]

I successfully made this bag but it wasn’t easy to do the bottom. It was very difficult to birth it and turn it right side out. I used real leather on the bottom and when turning it right side out some of the stitching came out and I had to hand sew it back on. I also forgot to put the D rings on and had to use the seam ripper yet again. I made a second one and top stitched the bottom of the line with matching thread instead of struggling to turn it inside out. It’s an adorable looking bag but a lot of work and hard on the hands.

[@aliciaoneil9277]

I am new to making purses, this is very helpful, I do have a question how did you make you label to go on the front of the bag. Love your videos.

[@bopgirl8]

new to bag making but have been sewing for many years. wouldn't it be easier to leave the zip apart then join once it is attached.

[@SiahSwag]

Yes you can do that too

[@yvonnemorgan7765]

Love watching your video’s although I do have a question when adding the zipper pockets etc do you change your walking foot over to the walking zipper foot ? Or just leave the zipper foot on ?

[@SiahSwag]

I change.

[@elainen2636]

I wish you would add items to the bags after you're done to have a better idea how much you can fit in some of these smaller bags. The bottom seems like it holds a lot but with the zipper closed it seems that everything will poke thru. I love the bag and you're video is great.

[@SiahSwag]

Great idea! I’ll try and do that next time

[@mimzyriepensell1423]

Question, I know this is from a year ago and I didn't read the comments if this has already been suggested. is it possible to box the exterior prior to doing the lining? Then pull the lining bottom through the lining zipper pocket and box the lining....no facing at all....or am I way off on that as a possibiity?

[@patriciachochon8519]

For your strap how wide did you cut it to use 3/4 hardware? Please and thank you. Your videos rock.🥰😘

[@SiahSwag]

It should be 3 inches wide to start with

[@almaherrera1830]

Great tutorial. How wide and long did you cut the vinyl for the straps?

[@SiahSwag]

Just the length of the vinyl which is usually around 54 inches

[@fabiola5762]

Hello Ms. Kassaih! I was doing research on machines. You do great work. I looking at not spending a lot of money. Your machine does well from what I can see. Would it be worth the investment. I want to get an industrial by the end of April.

[@SiahSwag]

I love my machine, totally worth the money I spent.

[@4golfing]

Wondering if it would be possible to do a type of french seaming on the box corners. instead of the strip?

[@SiahSwag]

Yes of course if your machine can handle the layers, but remember you have the zipper in there as well…

[@amybland9679]

When you go to a smaller needle size…do you need to make adjustments to your machine? Tension, etc…

[@SiahSwag]

Nope, everything stays the same for me

[@juliekennedy1296]

We all have lives, and lots have dogs! Can I ask what made you decide to make you tube videos? I’m just learning and am thinking of documenting it. Maybe just for me or publicly. Just looking for opinions that’s all. Hope you don’t mind me asking ❤️ learning how to use an industrial machine to make bags I have been sewing on a domestic for years. Clothes, quilts, pouches and bags!

To tell you the truth, it was watching other videos and thinking to myself, I think I could explain this a little better…

I usually make than the length of my vinyl which is 54 inches

[@SiahSwag]

[@sewTeri]

Kassiah, what size thread are you using on this bag and the top-stitch length? The bag is beautiful.

[@SiahSwag]

I use a Tex 70 poly thread from my website, and around 5-5.5 for topstitching.

[@denisegerle]

HELP!!! I want to make my strap in one piece like you did. How wide do I cut it? 1.5 inches by length of the strap?

[@SiahSwag]

If you want a 3/4 in finished strap, and no raw edges, you cut 3 inches by the length of the vinyl roll

[@seetraceysew9946]

How long did you make your vinyl strap? I know the pattern calls for sewing two shorter pieces of cotton cut on the bias to make a longer strap. The width of my vinyl is 54”. I could buy the correct yardage to be able to get the length, but that is a lot of yardage for just a strap. Do you think 54” will be okay? I know it’s considerably shorter than the pattern.

[@SiahSwag]

I make my crossbodies the length of the vinyl so usually 54 inches 😊

[@gopeggy]

Did you use 1 inch hardwere or did you use what the pattern recomended?
