Jess, you always go above and beyond 🤩 I pray you know how deeply we ALL appreciate you not just for time stamps.. giggle but your encouraging, uplifting, you can do this .. love for your maker community. I know, I know I've said it before and I'm sure others say it too. But for those whom enjoy and glean from your hard work.. figuring out a good bag, deciphering the codes of which lay within the numbers pieces and places🤯 ( for someone on the other side of a BI. Trust when I say I know there are others that may not be able to do certain patterns because of such things and or other health restrictions😇you bless us all sweety). YOUR willingness to go for it just makes me smile. Rock my heads side to side slightly and say to myself "JESS...ROCKS!" so I just wanted to say THANK YOU... Y'ALL HAVE AN AMAZING WEEK, BIG HUGS & BLESSINGS TO YOU AND YOURS💞 🌺🦋🌺
Thank you so much Kathleen! You're going to make me cry! I could have never imagined how useful these videos would be. It's something I've become incredibly passionate about, and this community is just incredible!
@@OklaRoots Jess, sweety you are sooo very welcome! I feel the same. It's amazing😍 the hearts of those we are joined with as creators and makers. It still blows my mind Everyday in fact. You know that's not true. It doesn't surprise me in fact it takes my breathe away because it blesses me so deeply. It may have absolutely nothing to do with me in fact witnessing the kindness and unadulterated willingness of those joyfully opening their hearts n minds to take time from what ever they may have going on to make sure another can learn, grow and overcome something. Whether it's a snap or extremely difficult. It.. well my cup runneth over. I'm a woman of strong faith n generally leads of joy. And due to horrible health issues I've had so very many reasons to give up on others and anticipating just a lil kindness as human beings. To the point of never leaving my place because it broke my heart to see folks so broken, for what ever reason. That they couldn't beget a bit of goodness towards another. It certainly keeps me in a state of prayer for the hurting, broken and weary. So, when the good LORD brings you to a place where beautiful people such as yourself will shine joyfully, regardless what they may be up against in that moment, day, week..! Just that others may see, "This you shall pass" and that love STILL makes us the WONDERS that WE were all meant to be and ARE. On my part (and everyone else that had embraced you), you keep me inspired and excited to move forward in the blessings of all the amazing things stirring within. It's encouraging when I want nothing more than to create & do and the body thinks it's the last word and going to keep me down.. Not! In those moments you kind of want to give in because it could be easier than the fight. I've had mind to think, your miles behind in this or that so? Then there your are pushing past whatever else may be going on. Not allowing it to keep you from things. (I know there are maybe times you do n then shut off for a bit, I mean don't we all encounter the" 🖐 I'll be right back" moments. ( him great T~shirt idea lol) I'm encouraged with something new and exciting that I'll not only be pushing forward in what is planned but I'll be enjoying the latest soon as well. Is ok to getter done in my timing. I know I'm a bit wordy but its truth and well if you ever need it. I pray it lifts you up if even with just a smidge of joy and light, as your spirit is to all of us. Ok, now I'm a big ball bag 👁💦👁 oh my lol not my intent. But, When the Spirit moves me to speak or my big ol blessed heart can't help but to say Thank you lololol well😁 Hugs and Blessings 💞
Thanks for this tutorial. What a great bag for so many different things. Scrapbooking, painting, traveling, and I'm sure there's a few more ways to use it. You always have the cutest fabrics also.
I love that you went through applying the interfacing with all the pattern pieces. Sometimes for me just the cutting and interfacing is more daunting than actually sewing the bags. I also love that you go through all the hardware first thing . I am such a visual learner, I do also go through the paper pattern but with a video also its like it makes mistakes or confusion to the pattern almost impossible. Love this video. Thank you so much.
I'm so glad this helped Diane! I always have to lay everything out on my table and get a good idea of what I need to finish the bag. I'm glad those steps are useful to others as well!
I'm going to make one of these for my great niece. I know she will love it and I have the perfect fabric. I love your videos Jess. You do a fantastic job showing every step and explaining all the whys and why-nots.
You are so stinking AWESOME!!! So glad I’m following you… Always a pleasure to see you and your projects…can’t wait to start doing some of these projects!!! Again thank you. Be blessed
I have just discovered you, WHY? did it take so long :) ANYONE could learn to make a bag from your incredibly detailed tutorial, SO informative, THANK YOU. I am SOOOOO going to love watching many more of your videos. Again, thank you so much for ALL the details and for giving your time and energy FREELY , for many to enjoy making. EDIT, you are a fantastic teacher.
Thank you so much Nancy! I get nervous putting out some of these longer videos. But I just don't want to skip steps, you know? I really want all skill levels to make these bags.
Yeah. Love watching your tutorials! My favorite hack for hand stitching is to run the thread in beeswax to prevent the thread from twisting. This came from my sister who who hand quilted. 😁
Thanks so much for this pattern. You have no idea how many times I watched it and how much I enjoyed it. I finally completed my bag and I couldn't have done it without you!
@@OklaRoots I am obsessed with it!!!! And your tutorials! Lol. Going to send you a picture of my bag on IG, since I feel you held my hand through the process since I spent about 4 hours with you this weekend. 😂😂
Thank you Jess, for another wonderful tutorial. I especially loved that you showed how you hand stitched your binding. I always hand bind my projects, as, like you, I am not the straightest binding sewer when it comes to using the machine. I was so happy that you showed how you stitched over the vinyl, I was wondering if it was as straight forward as you showed, and it was, which makes me feel less stressed about binding that part. Thank you again :)
Hi Jess. This was such a fun sewing project. I made two for my sisters kids for craft or school supplies. They turned out so cute. It was hard to find specific fabric designs so I used iron on images to use on solid fabric. They turned out so cute. I wish I could post an image in the comment section for you to see. Thank you so much for the tutorial it was so helpful to watch while sewing.
Yes please looks amazing bag.... I could turn it into a sewing tool bag!omg I love with the princess vogue print 🥰❤️❤️❤️❤️❤️ they make great gifts for teens makeup and art supplies love it I’m get this pattern asap
I just bought this pattern, then I found out this was going to be your tutorial this week and waited to start it until I could watch you do it. SOOOOOO excited! I’m going to make one for my daughter, but I’m going to make one for me for art supplies and paint brushes!
Jess OklaRoots I’ve noticed your obvious love for Disney. We’re a HUGE Disney family, too. I have a gorgeous Little Mermaid fabric I think I’m going to use for the outside. I’ll post it on your Facebook when I get it done.
Jess your videos are AWESOME!!!! Honestly, none of the videos I've watched are as good as yours. And I am picky. I am almost done with my bag. I'll be sharing it at the group. Have a great day!!!! Hope the kitties behave today.
I love YOU, you are such an inspiration to us. This bag would be such a great bag for my crocheting supplies, hand sewing supplies, my daughters Diabetes "kit". I can think of so many uses for this really nice bag. I will try it after I get some more experience under my sewing belt. Thank you Jess. (and by the way-your makeup looks so very natural, I would not have though you have a whole bag of supplies!)
Awww thank you so much Dee! I think this is the type of bag that really screams "love" in gift form, you know? Whoever receives this as a gift is going to adore it.
you always do such an amazing job teaching the wonderful useful bags. I thank you for the slow details every step, as well as the tips from what you learned.. I must say I love seeing what fabrics you are using bc so many times people get stuck with a certain color or pallet and you seem to find the darn cutest fabrics ever. Ok that said, if you make another one, I have a suggestion, to make the bottom of the bag a bit sturdier for the in out Velcro spot you could add a 1/2" x 7.5" piece of your scraps of stabilizer to the opposing side (wrong side ) of the bottom. I think it might give just a bit stronger base, and perhaps keep the bag from damage to the cotton fabric. thanks again.. keep up the great tutorials.
I just discovered I have this pattern, and was gonna make it for my Granddaughter! I was kind of intimidated to try it. Thanks Jess you read my mind. I love when that happens! Bless you!
Thx so much for sharing all your time & expertise with us! I absolutely love your videos. I learned a new way to make the vinyl strap, I had not seen that before & its so much easier too. I had a tough time getting the corners straight but all is good in the end.
A tip I've come across for making sure the snaps line up right is to place both pieces together and rip the slits together or if that's too much fabric to place one piece on top of the other and trace the slits onto the bottom piece and then install male and female snaps.
Stretch the corners ever so slightly while you are going around them and the binding will practically jump into place on the other side when you fold it over.. It makes life really easy, even on quilts with scalloped edges. Here is another tutorial for ending binding so you can't tell that the binding was never one piece in the first place. I use this all the time. Even on purses. th-cam.com/video/0R6eercvs4A/w-d-xo.html
This is adorable. I've been looking for a bag to take lunches for my friends who work in offices, etc. so I would love to know the dimension of the inner bag and I would probably tweak it some so that the opening of the inner bag was bigger so as not to mush up the lunch. the outer bag part would be great as a placemat and use the brush/tool pockets for utensils and the vinyl pocket for napkins, wet wipes, condiments or whatever.
Yay I'm so excited for you to make it! Here is the link for the fabric (warning: it is a preorder, meaning it could take a few months before you receive it) foxandtots.com/products/vogue-princesses-fabric
Now that you have so many other materials you like to use (eg vinyl, WPC etc), would you make this again differently? Also would love to know what it’s like to birth…couldn’t find one on the socials without binding
for sticky vinyl, just dust with baby powder on the side that is sticking. yes it needs a little extra clean up at the end. you can also use tissue paper between vinyl and foot. i have a roller foot at it works very will. as for binding: cut on bias; cut wide enough that you can fold lengthwise edge to edge & it will be wide enough to wrap around to frontside; sew bias on back side first iron seam flat, flip over and iron binding fold, use plenty of steam to "shrink" edges around curves; when you are satisfied that binding looks even, stitch down with about 3-3.5 mm straight stitch.
Love this cute bag pattern, I bought the stencils and found some super cute fabric to start up! However, is it possible to sew this pattern without the SF101 or the 911ff? I wonder if the bag will be hard to use without it?
Your videos are so informative and clear instructions. Can you share a little more about how you "laminated" the material? Did you just buy some clear vinyl and it melted to the material somehow or is it special vinyl? Your link to the vinyl showed some kind of blue vinyl, so it was a little confusing to me. Thanks again, this bag looks great. I am making one similar and then I want to make one a little smaller for electronics for traveling and then a coordinating tote to carry it all with an inside pocket for an iPad. Nice for traveling And then maybe a coordinating handbag as well.
Any chance you are going to do a quilt block project bag for the BOM?? I have made a right mess of the 2 that I have tried to customize and I've signed up for (4) BOMs... I need some (adorable) organization in my life
Jess I love the bag and your tutorials. I have pretty much watched them all. Im ready to conquer zippers and binding. I love the disney princess fabric on this make up bag. I cant remember, did you say it was cotton/lycra? I have been on the fox & tots website, but dont totally understand the difference in materials. Thanks.
So this one was made using Cotton Lycra, but I typically prefer Cotton Woven. Lycra reminds me of legging material, and the woven is like quilt cotton.
Love this bag. If I get round to trying this, I might use KAM snaps for the bag to avoid risk of snagging as I can be very clumsy. Thanks for sharing 😊
I'm curious why you attached your binding to the inside of the bag first. I'm a quilter, and most quilters do the machine stitching to the top of the quilt and hand stitch to the bottom. It would also avoid having to hand stitch through the vinyl.
@@OklaRoots Sounds good. I just couldn't figure out if there was a more strategic reason for which side the binding was machine stitched.. You're hand stitching of the binding was beautiful, so I'm sure both sides looked the same. I don't usually do quilts with rounded edges that require a bias binding, so I was trying to figure out if there was a reason for what the pattern did, or if it was simply a 50/50 choice. This bag turned out beautiful!
I missed where the pattern comes from and how to get it. It looks like a download, but when I like on it it doesn't go to the download link. Am I missing something?
I bought the double sided tape. I noticed every time You use it is cut the film where you’re pulling the top layer off. I have yet to be able to pull it off ,pleases show us
Love this bag and the idea to use it as a kids craft bag! May I ask where you got the metal clips? The ones you use to clip the pieces numbers to the fabrics?
Aren't those amazing? They are just metal hair clips on amazon...or if you want the fun rainbow ones you can find them here: moremeknow.com/products/rainbow-metal-hair-clips?_pos=1&_sid=b17d09a8f&_ss=r

I just discovered I have this pattern, and was gonna make it for my Granddaughter! I was kind of intimidated to try it. Thanks Jess you read my mind. I love when that happens! Bless you!
Let me know how it goes Jan!
Would be a good bag to take to quilting retreats for sewing stuff.
Love love this bag! Thank you for introducing it to us.
You are so welcome!

Thank you!
Thank you for this awesome tutorial.
I love your shirt!!!
Thank you Lisa!

Amazing! 👏🏻🔥
You should make a video showcasing all the bags that you've made that you use the most

Great idea to stitch through the Velcro in large zig zag stitch. Can’t believe I never thought of that before.
I would have never thought to do that if the pattern didn't suggest it. I love when patterns give extra tips that you can use in other bags as well.
Love love love this ❤ 💗 💖
Thank you Stella!
How about magnets in the bottom of the bag instead of velcro? 😃
Love the bag and I'm thinking it would be great for the children to put Craft bits in and take out and about. Love it.
This is 100% approved by kidos.
This is adorable. I've been looking for a bag to take lunches for my friends who work in offices, etc. so I would love to know the dimension of the inner bag and I would probably tweak it some so that the opening of the inner bag was bigger so as not to mush up the lunch. the outer bag part would be great as a placemat and use the brush/tool pockets for utensils and the vinyl pocket for napkins, wet wipes, condiments or whatever.
actually, i followed your link and the pattern description includes the dimensions! yay!
I had not even thought of that and holy guacamole, what a great idea!!
Wow that is such a good idea. I would have never thought of that but thats awesome.
Que peça linda!Vc faz tudo parecer tão fácil...parabéns pelo talento e delicadeza!Beijos brasileiros no coração!
Muito obrigado pelas amáveis palavras! Eu amo compartilhar isso com você!
You make it look sew easy! Thanks for the tutorial!
Thanks for watching!
Hi from Montreal. Thanks Jess I love this bag I bought the pattern can wait to make it. Where did you buy your vogue fabric I 💗 it
Yay I'm so excited for you to make it! Here is the link for the fabric (warning: it is a preorder, meaning it could take a few months before you receive it) foxandtots.com/products/vogue-princesses-fabric
Love this 😍 another amazing tutorial and those prints are beautiful
Can we use a plastic zipper i dont have any zipper tapes on hand.
Yes of course! Plastic zippers work great!
That’s so nice
worth watch video good info
OMG that fabric is adorable and my nieces would love it! Where can I get it?
Love these
could you use the presser foot that folds the binding for you and just sew it on with one stitch with the machine?
You know I bet you could. I might have a binding foot, but I haven't gotten around to figuring it out yet. I really should!
Can you use Decovile heavy in place of the peltex?
Yes, definitely.
Now that you have so many other materials you like to use (eg vinyl, WPC etc), would you make this again differently? Also would love to know what it’s like to birth…couldn’t find one on the socials without binding
for sticky vinyl, just dust with baby powder on the side that is sticking. yes it needs a little extra clean up at the end. you can also use tissue paper between vinyl and foot. i have a roller foot at it works very will.
as for binding: cut on bias; cut wide enough that you can fold lengthwise edge to edge & it will be wide enough to wrap around to frontside; sew bias on back side first iron seam flat, flip over and iron binding fold, use plenty of steam to "shrink" edges around curves; when you are satisfied that binding looks even, stitch down with about 3-3.5 mm straight stitch.
Love this cute bag pattern, I bought the stencils and found some super cute fabric to start up! However, is it possible to sew this pattern without the SF101 or the 911ff? I wonder if the bag will be hard to use without it?
Your videos are so informative and clear instructions. Can you share a little more about how you "laminated" the material? Did you just buy some clear vinyl and it melted to the material somehow or is it special vinyl? Your link to the vinyl showed some kind of blue vinyl, so it was a little confusing to me. Thanks again, this bag looks great. I am making one similar and then I want to make one a little smaller for electronics for traveling and then a coordinating tote to carry it all with an inside pocket for an iPad. Nice for traveling And then maybe a coordinating handbag as well.
Also thanks for going so slow on the binding, I was clueless and mine turned out well.
Thanks for the video:)
Any chance you are going to do a quilt block project bag for the BOM?? I have made a right mess of the 2 that I have tried to customize and I've signed up for (4) BOMs... I need some (adorable) organization in my life
That's a great idea Kimmie! Let me see what I can come up with.
Love that for a make-up bag and you totally had me until the hand sewing 😮 But how do you carry it, is there a strap for the whole thing?
Jess I love the bag and your tutorials. I have pretty much watched them all. Im ready to conquer zippers and binding. I love the disney princess fabric on this make up bag. I cant remember, did you say it was cotton/lycra? I have been on the fox & tots website, but dont totally understand the difference in materials. Thanks.
So this one was made using Cotton Lycra, but I typically prefer Cotton Woven. Lycra reminds me of legging material, and the woven is like quilt cotton.
Love this bag. If I get round to trying this, I might use KAM snaps for the bag to avoid risk of snagging as I can be very clumsy. Thanks for sharing 😊
Mama Banana I was thinking of using 2 or 3 strong magnet snaps.
The Wandering Wife oh, magnet snaps would be much better, quicker & sleeker! Very clever 😊
Great idea! I love the idea of magnetic snaps as well!
I'm curious why you attached your binding to the inside of the bag first. I'm a quilter, and most quilters do the machine stitching to the top of the quilt and hand stitch to the bottom. It would also avoid having to hand stitch through the vinyl.
Thanks Debbie! I was following the pattern :)
@@OklaRoots Sounds good. I just couldn't figure out if there was a more strategic reason for which side the binding was machine stitched.. You're hand stitching of the binding was beautiful, so I'm sure both sides looked the same. I don't usually do quilts with rounded edges that require a bias binding, so I was trying to figure out if there was a reason for what the pattern did, or if it was simply a 50/50 choice. This bag turned out beautiful!
Amazing bag
Thank you! 😊
Can I sub Decoville Heavy for the Peltex?
Yes definitely!
Great for a makeup artist
YES! Oh my goodness, this would be such a great gift for a budding makeup artist as well.
I missed where the pattern comes from and how to get it. It looks like a download, but when I like on it it doesn't go to the download link. Am I missing something?
Nice video!
Wow I love that colorful zipper...which brand zipper it is ?
I bought the double sided tape. I noticed every time You use it is cut the film where you’re pulling the top layer off. I have yet to be able to pull it off ,pleases show us
I am wondering what kind of foot you have , I love it!
That little skinny one? It's a "zipper" foot for my Juki. amzn.to/3k4aCvS
Thank you for sharing your knowledge and talents with us! I’m excited to get this pattern and make it!
You are so welcome! Let me know how it goes Stephannie!
Love this bag and the idea to use it as a kids craft bag! May I ask where you got the metal clips? The ones you use to clip the pieces numbers to the fabrics?
Aren't those amazing? They are just metal hair clips on amazon...or if you want the fun rainbow ones you can find them here: moremeknow.com/products/rainbow-metal-hair-clips?_pos=1&_sid=b17d09a8f&_ss=r
