    That's a lovely bag. You did a brilliant job with it. Have a great holiday down here in Cornwall. Hope the weather will be good for you. Look forward to your next video. Hope your machine comes back working well. Thank you. 😊💐

      Thanks so much! Can't wait until it's all sorted now, I feel like I haven't sewn in ages haha x

    I made a bag years and years ago and it was a lot of fun. I love the fabric on your top, I can't seem to find lovely florals like that here in the US.

      Thank you! I think I was lucky with this fabric find, have you tried Minerva, they have a lot of florals and ship worldwide x

      I have just made the Merchant&Mills Orton Bag, lovely too but huge! I thought this one looked too tricky but you have changed my mind! Can I ask what make sure hole punch is? I don’t want to risk buying a rubbish one!

    That was interesting and fun Sally, you've inspired me to look and maybe buy this pattern. We returned from a holiday in France on Monday 22nd and tested positive for Covid on the 24th! So as I'm starting to recover after a rough three days, it's an ideal opportunity to catch up on your videos. I hope Cornwall was lots of fun and that the kitchen replacement has gone well.

    • @SecretLifeOfASeamstress
      @SecretLifeOfASeamstress  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Oh no! So sorry to hear that I hope you're feeling better now...? Cornwall was lovely as always, definitely one of my favourite places to go x

    Enjoyed watching the bag being made up Sally. Really making me want to have a go.

      I would recommend the pattern it was really fun to sew. Thank you for watching xx

    I can entirely sympathise with you about the kitchen situation! I'm right in the middle of mine being done - at the stage where everything is messy and the dust is horrific. I hope yours is finished without mishap! Love the Jack Tar bag, it's been on my radar for a while. I can't decide whether to make one or not!

    • @SecretLifeOfASeamstress
      @SecretLifeOfASeamstress  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Oh gosh it’s horrible isn’t it. We were washing up in the bath for a week or so. Just waiting on the tiling for ours now and then it’ll be done. I hope you enjoy your new kitchen too xx

      Thanks so much! It’s been and gone now as this was pre- recorded, want to go back now haha xx

    A lovely bag and nice choice of fabrics. Did it hold up well during your holiday? I hope the kitchen refit is going well! X

    • @SecretLifeOfASeamstress
      @SecretLifeOfASeamstress  2 ปีที่แล้ว +2

      Do you know I didn't use it as much as I thought I would during the holiday because I didn't want it to get dirty and sandy haha!! I have used it since though and can confirm it holds a lot of stuff. I think I'll avoid putting anything too heavy in this one because of the fabric I've used but a stronger fabric like a leather or cord would be great x

  • @janspenno2241
    @janspenno2241 2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    I loved making my jack tar bag. I added another long strip into the top with a clip on for keys. Sewed into the top with facing and it hangs inside pocket

    • @SecretLifeOfASeamstress
      @SecretLifeOfASeamstress  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      That’s a great idea I might have to steal that for my next one haha! X

    I love your Jack bag. It would make such a nice present for someone. I shall definitely give it a go. Did you find it too big? Diana

    • @SecretLifeOfASeamstress
      @SecretLifeOfASeamstress  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      I think a few people have made them as presents, such a lovely idea! I think for the size it is it would benefit from a more hardy fabric such as faux leather just because you'll probably want to put a lot in it as it's so roomy x

  • @dawnchadwick379
    @dawnchadwick379 2 ปีที่แล้ว

    Beautiful fabric your top is made from Sally. Where is it from? 😊

  • @marywhite2407

    Thank you , question , do you put snips in the base as well as the sides please ?

    • @SecretLifeOfASeamstress
      @SecretLifeOfASeamstress  ปีที่แล้ว

      Oh gosh I can't remember it was a while ago I made this. Are there notches on the pattern?

  • @create_something_pretty

    Can you buy an air-conditioner where you are? I'm kind of confused why you don't have air-con. I know your houses are built for winter but we've always just bought one. They aren't cheap but 40°c is way too hot. None of our houses had air-con till we put it in. Can you buy them there?
    I love your top so pretty.

    • @SecretLifeOfASeamstress
      @SecretLifeOfASeamstress  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      Most public places like shops etc are air conditioned but houses and schools that weren’t built recently generally aren’t. We could buy one but 40 degrees is still a rarity in this country at the moment, if temperatures continue to rise I guess we’ll have to consider it. Thank you for watching xx

    • @create_something_pretty
      @create_something_pretty 2 ปีที่แล้ว

      @@SecretLifeOfASeamstress that makes sense. I hope it doesn't continue to be so hot. I'm from a warm country and 40 is too hot here as well. Makes a great sewing day but only with air-conditioning.😳😄
