  • In this video, I show you how to sew the Minerva Tote by Bagstock Designs, the February 2024 Bag of the Month Club Pattern, and share some tips and tricks. This pattern is ONLY available in the current Bag of the Month Club season, meaning you need to purchase this season to get this pattern. The Bag of the Month Club link is under where to find the pattern and supplies I use. This tutorial is filmed like a sew along. If you don't want to watch the part where I sew or am doing other things, you can always fast forward or adjust the speed of the video so it is faster. However, there are times I give tips and tricks while sewing. I figured filling in some of those moments with helpful information makes it appealing to watch.
    To note: I do not give any measurements, show pattern pieces or use any measuring tools on camera in any tutorials I film. This is for the protection of the pattern/designer and because I often film tutorials during testing, and measurements or other things can change. So, to ensure the tutorials are accurate and match the pattern, this information is not mentioned. You will need to have your pattern open on another device, printed, or open on your computer to follow along with each step and be able to refer to measurements or seam allowances given. If you have the video open on your computer and want the PDF on your computer, you can minimize this TH-cam video and move it to a corner of your screen.
    If you have any questions, you can contact Namrata through her email provided in the pattern. You can also leave comments below, and I will reply as soon as possible.
    I'm looking forward to seeing all the beautiful Minerva Totes made and posted on social media! =D
    I sewed this on a Juki TL-2200 QVP Mini and used a 100/16 needle. For the exterior, I used quilting cotton and Soft Vinyl, and quilting cotton for the lining. For threads, I used Tex 45 thread. You'll want to use materials, needles and threads that work best for your machine.

    You are such a good teacher and I appreciate when you explain why or why not you do something. I was looking for a tutorial for this bag pattern to see if it was something I might be able to do (I’m a beginner), and I really think I will be able to because of your teaching. Thank you so much! Will definitely subscribe!

    Wow! Thank you so so much for your amazing tutorial. I've had this pattern for quite some time now but since I'm a visual learner and have difficulties following written instructions, waited for the right tutorial. Your instructions are so clear and easy for me to follow. By the way, where did you get your screwdrivers set? The fabrics you used are absolutely beautiful. I have collections of Tula Pink fabrics. Can't wait to make the Minerva Tote bag. Thank you again for a thorough tutorial. You have no idea how much you have helped me. You're truly amazing! 💖👍🤚🌹

      @mgrahamsews  หลายเดือนก่อน

      Thank you so much for this lovely comment! It makes me so happy to know I've helped you. Makes all my time and effort worth it. 😊❤️ My screwdriver set is from the Dollar Store (Dollarama). My husband bought it for me after I complained about the one I was using. 😃

      She sure did! Even when she's not on camera, she's around laying, sitting, or sleeping somewhere near. She's very attached to me. As I type this reply, she's sleeping beside me on the couch. She's my little baby. 😊❤️

    I use a key fob press tool to flatten the seams.

    • @mgrahamsews
      @mgrahamsews  6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      That can absolutely work too. I always say hammer because I know almost everyone has one in their home. 😃

    Michelle, thank you for all your videos. They are really helpful. I also am using soft vinyl for my Minerva. Did you interface your vinyl at all?

    • @mgrahamsews
      @mgrahamsews  3 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      Thank you so very much for the lovely comment! 😊 ❤️ I did not add any woven interfacing to my Soft Vinyl.

    What glue do you use when inserting the purse feet? Where did you get that beautiful vinyl? 😍

    • @mgrahamsews
      @mgrahamsews  6 หลายเดือนก่อน +1

      The vinyl is called Deep Space Soft Vinyl and it's from Sew HungryHippie, www.sewhungryhippie.com 😊
      The glue is Beacon 3in1 and I normally purchase it from my local big box fabric store. However, Walmart, Amazon, and some quilt shops also sell it. 😊

    Which tape are you using? Mine is not that sticky

      I purchase my tape from Wawak Sewing supplies or Amazon. 😊

      I don't remember off the top of my head because I made this back at the beginning of January, lol. However, I listed the thread I used and all other supplies in the description. 😊

      @mgrahamsews  6 หลายเดือนก่อน

      You're welcome! I always try to include that because I know I may forget if I'm asked. I make a lot of bags, even when not filming tutorials, so I easily confuse them all. 🤣
