😅😅😅🙈this is so helpful … i was doing it all wrong and wondered why it was tearing !!😃😊thank you for this easy and clear tutorial !

[@jeannie82024]

wohooo, thank you! I was so intimidated that I stayed away from projects that called for magnetic snaps

[@jennymason7123]

Great tips and clear instructions - thank you so much!!!! I've never used these before but your tutorial really helped me and avoiding some basic technique errors!!

[@Laila816]

at 4:09 thank you! I watched two other bad videos before this one, and I felt the prongs were wrongly done, they bent them outside, instead towards the middle. And to use a fleece in between is a great tip!

[@Laila816]

​@Marble Arts ah I see, but at the other 2 videos, they didn't use any kind of fleece or cardboard support, only the thin main fabric, and bent the prongs outwards, looked very fragile, the fabric won't last long, the way they did, anyways thanks.

[@dcwatashi]

If you bend the prongs inward like she did in this video you are going to have extra bulk that is why most people bend the prongs outward

[@BATFAERY]

Excellent ... you've given me 2 more valuable tid-bits. Thank you, Janelle!

[@andiehelen5715]

Great! Clear directions and good visuals. Thanks for this tutorial

[@stephenkohl2452]

Why thank you for the video and making my life a little easier

[@carolinacrossstitcher]

Thanks for a wonderfully helpful video! I was unsure how to proceed but now you’ve given great tips!

[@JanelleMacKayEmmalineBags]

You are so welcome! Glad it was helpful!

[@ritacantrell738]

Great tips thank you. Great instructions also.

[@sth.777]

Thank you for this concise video! Just what I was looking for! :-)

[@cindycolvin2916]

Thank you much for sharing this tutorial. I had know idea how to install them

[@ashsaraswat3471]

Thanks Janelle. What a great tutorial! And I just had to go to your website to check out the pattern for that featured wallet because it was so cute, and came across a tote that I'm now madly in love with and purchasing the pattern for.

[@MagnoliaRose1946]

Thank you for the tutorial!!!

[@JanelleMacKayEmmalineBags]

You are so welcome!

[@sonnels57]

Great tutorial. Thank you, now for some shopping!

[@Lisaf825]

Hi so do you need to just repeat the same process for the other piece?

[@LifeBetweenTheDash]

Perfect. Simple and to the point. Many thanks.

[@keelymantoufe4926]

Thank you for video

[@marthahumphrey3849]

Excellent video!

[@dcwatashi]

Why do these videos only show you how to install the one side the magnetic snaps have two pieces male and female so why doesn’t anybody show you how to do the female part?

[@JanelleMacKayEmmalineBags]

Hello! You would use the same method for both the male and female ends - your pattern should have the measurements for placement.

[@dcwatashi]

@@JanelleMacKayEmmalineBags I should have written my comment a little more descriptive. I don’t have a pattern but what I meant to say was if you’re making your own cross body bag for example and you want to have those snaps how do you determine how far down the female snap has to go to match up to the male snap
I guess that is what scrap fabric is for!!!
😺👍🏻😹🤪

[@marionstuart1376]

Thank you ❤

[@gyorgyiconable6377]

Hello Janelle, do you have the pattern for the bag you are demonstrating on?

[@JanelleMacKayEmmalineBags]

HI! Yes, I have the pattern for that, but because of commitments to a club that it was released in, I cannot sell it publicly until Dec 1, 2018. It's called the "Road Trip Wallet" and comes in 3 versions, 2 sizes. It will be sold on the website, emmalinebags.com in both printed paper and PDF versions. I hope that helps!

[@gyorgyiconable6377]

Thank you! Looking forward to it!

[@thatsfunny2051]

So helpful. Thanks.
