Your tutorial was excellent! Your directions were clear and to the point. I’ve been sewing for 65 years, but someone who is new to sewing would have no problem following your tutorial. Great job!!!
37 people have no respect. I can't believe they thumbed this down. the amount of creativity and time it took to make this video is amazing. thank you for sharing!!!
I said the same thing.... I'm like yal haters there is absolutely nothing wrong with this video she literally gave you every step and every peice of material she used...
This tutorial couldn't be more perfect unless you were physically sitting in my home teaching me! Your calming voice and detailed directions made me a new subscriber! I hope you have more tutorials like this one! Thank you for sharing your sewing 🧵 expertise! Be safe and healthy 😷Take Care! Happy Holidays!
This looks easy for me. It’s be a long while. I want to try first with canvas and faux leather. Before I use real leather. You make it look easy I would like to see how to make a small zip makeup bag or a small bag for medical device.
I bought a tote bag pattern off of Etsy and immediately was lost when I got the directions. So, I came to TH-cam to look for answers when I stumbled across this in-depth tutorial. As someone who only knows basic sewing skills, I was thrilled to find an easy video that catered to someone wanting to make a tote bag that wasn’t flimsy! I literally had this tutorial playing from start to finish and created a beautiful bag in 5 hours! Although it seems like a lot of time to some, I’m thoroughly impressed with myself 😂 I’m already starting my second one of the day. Thank you so much!
I made this bag this afternoon, and I’m pretty inexperienced ( I’ve been sewing 7 months) and it took me about 3 hours. It turned out fabulous! Love this tutorial! Thank you, btw... this is an excellent size to use as an everyday purse!
Thank you for this! I started sewing a similar bag from Pinterest but couldn't figure out the directions or the photos with it. Finally finished it tonight as a present for a friend thanks to your video.😄 The only difference is that I made my own handles from the extra fabric I already had.
This is possibly the easiest tote, perfect size and perfect way of explaining everything. I beg of you to teach this exact tote with a recessed zipper. PLEASEEEEE!
I just finished my first bag thanks to this video. The only real difference with mine was I added a window in the outside panel for a dye sublimation print of my friend and her husband and then put on the interfacing to give it stability. She loved it. Thanks so much Svetlana!
I'll be making this one this weekend, actually 2 one for a dear friend, and 1 for myself! Can't wait for the next video! Thanks so very much, ANOTHER awesome tutorial!
Such a great step by step tutorial. I’m thinking of making my own bags to take to the grocery store, which would save from using so much plastic bags. Thank you!
I just found your site today. Your the first seamstress that I could follow and understand your instructions from start to finish. I hope I get a new machine soon and I will be making these bags. By the way. I love your accent, it's very nice.
I have been watching videos for a while on tote bags, and finally chose this one. My project came out so well using your great step by step instructions. I have already made 2 more and look forward to using other patterns of yours! Thank you! 😊
This lady is amazing. I’ve been sewing for many, many years and still learn something new each time I watch her videos. She is fabulous explaining everything. Thank you so much. I enjoy your video and love the bags you make. So professional!!
Love the detail in your tutorial Svetlana! One small tip, before you close up the lining seam in the bottom, if you sew a couple stitches on the wrong sides with the corner seams matched it anchors the corners in place so they don't shift inside. This helps if you make them washable or if you make them reversible.
You are a fantastic teacher...clear, step by step instructions with clear visuals. My sewing group recommended your tutorials and I see why. Definitely making this. You’ve got another new subscriber! Thank you! 💕
I’ve just made my first tote bag ever using your wonderful tutorial. I used a lovely linen/cotton fabric with blue anchors and a navy duck canvas lining with navy leather handles. It’s turned out gorgeous! I’m thrilled. Definately the first of many and I now know what my “secret Santa” contribution will be at Christmas!! Thankyou so much for your patience and excellent teaching xx.
I just bought your pattern and am so excited to make this this coming weekend. This tutorial removed a lot of the fear I had about making this. Thank you so much! I love your blog too! xoxox
Love your step by step guide ❤ Love the way you explain ❤ Love your voice and the clarity ❤ Love the bag ❤ Thank you very much indeed for sharing your expertise and creation 🙏🙏🤗
I love you for sharing such a nice and easy video. With your help I was able sew my first handmade cloth bag using old saree to gift my sister. She’s liked it and gave blessings to you. Stay blessed 🙏
Thank you for such a well explained tutorial. I love your attention to detail, and explaining every single step! You don't assume we know something, you show us each step. I for one, really appreciate that! Thank you! Plus, I love your sweet voice, and could listen to you for days. Thanks again
I know this video is a few years old, but I just really wanted to say thank you! These bags are super cute and your tutorial was very easy to follow. I love how beginner friendly it is, and you did an excellent job explaining the process, unlike a lot of other videos I’ve watched. I’m making a few of these as Christmas gifts and was about to give up on the idea when I cam across your video. Thank you again so much for being so wonderful!
Thank you so much!! I just made my mother in law this in a jacquard and quilting cotton lining for her birthday (Just After Christmas ) thank you for giving me the confidence that I can make it- and yes! Everything matched up beautifully!!
I'm glad TH-cam recommended this channel to me. Your instructions are simple and easy to follow and your editing is great. I'm looking forward to watching more of your content. =)
Omg....i could listen to you for days hon.... Sooo pleasing voice and an EXCELLENT tutorial in general!! I have TONS of ideas. Thank you - thank you :)
Amazing as always. I personally like leaving the opening on a side seam as opposed to the bottom seam because I like my lining to sit as flat as possible on the bottom.
I am a long time seamstress/quilter. This tutorial was absolutely excellent. Well explained. Had fun following you along. These make great girlfriend Christmas gifts.
I’ve seen tons of tote bag videos and I found yours to be the easiest. I believe it’s because of the way you explained so clearly. Thank you so much. Not everyone is gifted with teaching, YOU, definitely are!!! Thanks again.
thank you. my grandparents were tailors. thank you for sharing your talent. it reminds me of my childhood memories surrounded with fabric, rulers, scissors, patterns and manual sewing machines. i feel excited watching you create bag! I am inspired and want to learn more from you😊
You are amazing! I am a new sewer and this project was easy to follow because of your explanations and the demonstration of each step. My family will enjoy their Christmas presents this year! Thank you.
You are so thorough in your explanation, yet simple! Thank you for an amazing tutorial. Your video got me excited about getting back into sewing again and I’m following you now and making projects with you! ❤
Thank you so much! My future MIL asked me to make her a big tote bag just like this! ⚘And of all the instructors/teachers I've come across in my 46 years of off and on sewing (mostly quilting), you are the absolute best!👏 You are very clear, you speak gently, stay focused and you're organized! I really appreciate you! So I subscribed to all your videos! 👍
I found you on TH-cam last year and made several of your bags. You are simply the best instructor I’ve watched. I’ve ordered the instructions for the various sizes of the chubby Totes. Thank you for making these videos.
Thank you. You are very clear in both your verbal and visual direction. I just completed my first-ever sewing project. I changed the dimensions which was right for my purposes and I used a second-hand quilted material as the outer fabric, which made the project a little more challenging than I would have liked, but your instructions got me through. Great tutorial!
This is the Best tutorial for making a Tote bag! I was a beginner and this is so easy to follow! I have made 5 or 6 totes now using this tutorial. The lady is so sweet and very easy to follow. Thank you so very much!
Just finished making a bag following your tutorial, and it has come out amazingly! Thank you so much for such an easy understanding and well instructed video!
Sveltlana I love your bag designs and have purchased some. Your videos are awesome and very easy to understand. One suggestion I would make about this video is pressing the top edge before top stitching. It is really helpful to get that crisp edge. This bag is a great beginning for experienced bag makers too, because you can add all kinds of details to it like inner slip pockets or zip pockets or an exterior slip or zip pocket, so it's a really great bag as a starting point. Thank you for the video!
Thank you for your videos ❤️ my grandma instilled the love of sewing in me when I was young. I just started sewing again as an adult and I wish she were here to teach me since I barely know much. She passed away when I was 14.. So thank the Lord for guiding me to lovely teachers, like you on TH-cam! Thank you!
thank you for the detailed tutorial. I cut it out yesterday evening and sewed it this morning. I am so proud, it is a beautiful tote. Will use this to sew more totes..
Utmost congratulations Madam! Excellent tutorial, so easy to understand and follow. No loud music like most of the time that cut your enthusiasm, thus stop looking at the video before half-way... Bravoooo.........
I made this for my 89 year old mother for a Christmas gift. It turned out so pretty! I used an old woven belt from my son's closet for the handles, she LOVES it! Thank you for sharing your talents!
Just followed the instructions to make this bag and it couldn’t be easier. I’ve made it for my daughter to carry her works things to and from. Hope she likes it. Thank you so much for the tutorial, it couldn’t have been easier.
I’ve been sewing for a year now. Mostly bags and little pouches. I’ve followed a number of people and tutorials on TH-cam to learn. I still struggle. After watching just two of your, very well explained videos, I see exactly what I’m doing wrong! Thank you so much for the wonderful information. I love your channel!
Hello. My job requires me to carry a clear bag if I want to bring things for myself and this pattern is so darned easy. I work for a security/event staffing company and our next job is to work a football game in Kansas City, it will be cold and I will be working outside, so now I will have a bag to carry my hat, gloves, scarf and lunch in. I will be sewing my bag by hand and for the sake of durability, I'll make the liner with the same clear material as the litter body. I'll be using a clear shower curtain for the bag and handles, and upholstery thread. Thank you for posting this pattern, I love it!
Thank you so much for this tutorial. I have been able to make an amazing project bag for my knitting following your very clear instructions. I used some faux sheepskin and lined it with an upholstery fabric and attached two handles to the outsides with rivets.
i didn't have the PUL fabric, so i used a waterproof table cloth that had a fuzzy back as my interior. THANK YOU this was quite easy and easy to follow. AWESOME.
Your tutorial was excellent! Your directions were clear and to the point. I’ve been sewing for 65 years, but someone who is new to sewing would have no problem following your tutorial. Great job!!!
If you sew the bottom invisibly, it can be reversable. Thank you.
37 people have no respect. I can't believe they thumbed this down. the amount of creativity and time it took to make this video is amazing. thank you for sharing!!!
I said the same thing.... I'm like yal haters there is absolutely nothing wrong with this video she literally gave you every step and every peice of material she used...
It must be the jealous seamstresses thumbing it down. I made one and it turned out great! Such clear instructions. Very nice tutorial.👍👍
Agreed. It’s a great tutorial. Forget the haters.
Very good video. You explained everything so well. Thank you, I can’t wait to make one!
@@ushalax77I'm with you! I'm making a 2nd one by request from the person I made my 1st one for!
I could watch you for days Svetlana - you explain things so clearly and at just the right pace!
that makes me so happy, thank you :)

This looks easy for me. It’s be a long while. I want to try first with canvas and faux leather. Before I use real leather. You make it look easy
I would like to see how to make a small zip makeup bag or a small bag for medical device.
Same thoughts I have
I made tote bag out of jeans cloth
It came out perfect 🥰
Agreed ♥️ so clear, I successfully made a tote bag today. Thank you 😊

I can honestly say I have never seen anyone give such clear instructions. Brilliant!
That’s a great honor, thank you 😘
How do I go about your leather straps and polyester webbing
I made this bag, it was my first-ever. It was quite easy with my basic skills, I'm so proud of it! Thanks so much for a great tutorial!
Hello, how are you doing my friend
You explain everything so perfectly and succinctly!
I have watched so many tote bag videos and THIS is definitely the best Winner!
that means a lot, thank you :)
What a beautiful bag! I can't wait to get started on it. You have excellent teaching skills - your tutorial was fantastic!
I gasped when she turned it inside out (outside in?). Sooooo amazing!!!! Can’t wait to give it a go
I made this bag this afternoon, and I’m pretty inexperienced ( I’ve been sewing 7 months) and it took me about 3 hours. It turned out fabulous! Love this tutorial! Thank you, btw... this is an excellent size to use as an everyday purse!

Glad it was helpful!
Finally I found a clear and easy way to make a tote as a beginner. Really appreciate it😊
You’re welcome 😊
Wow, what a clear, concise and descriptive tutorial. I think I can do it! Now to find a tutorial for making a bag with a drawstring top. Thank you!
Glad it was helpful!
Love the simplicity of this tutorial. I would love to see an add on for adding a recessed zipper. Your videos are so easy to follow.
I agree. I seem to best understand these tutorials and am anxiously awaiting each new video. A recessed zipper would be perfect!
Hi, how are you doing my friend?
This is possibly the easiest tote, perfect size and perfect way of explaining everything. I beg of you to teach this exact tote with a recessed zipper. PLEASEEEEE!
OMG I second that!
I just made my first bag and it was so much faster and easier than I thought it would be. Thanks so much for the tutorial, it’s perfect!

Amazing as always. I personally like leaving the opening on a side seam as opposed to the bottom seam because I like my lining to sit as flat as possible on the bottom.
yes, that's definitely a good option.
Sometimes I'll hand stitch it closed with a ladder stitch to keep it neat. I don't like the machine stitch at the bottom either. 😊
I always cover a strong cardboard base board and slip it inside, it stops the lining from moving up and makes a nice ridged base.
Great idea ... @@itsmyparty4637
I found this so clear and helpful! have watched many tutorials and this was super easy to follow thank you for posting!
You did such a great job with the instructions, I believe even I could sew this bag!! Thank you!

Excellent tutorial. Not unnecessarily long or over explained. This was simple and easy. Thank you so much. Going to go check out your other videos.
I have to agree with most of the other comments - your voice is lovely, your instructions are very clear and I really enjoyed watching your video.
Thank you so much!
Just followed the instructions to make this bag and it couldn’t be easier. I’ve made it for my daughter to carry her works things to and from. Hope she likes it. Thank you so much for the tutorial, it couldn’t have been easier.
I’ve been sewing for a year now. Mostly bags and little pouches. I’ve followed a number of people and tutorials on TH-cam to learn. I still struggle.
