I’m sure you already know this but thought I’d throw it out there - for the clear vinyl itty bitty, I attached the zipper pull from the backside of the tape with right sides of vinyl facing each other; that way you don’t need to turn it wrong side out to sew the side seams. I also slid the pull all the way off the first time to fully close it, then re-attached it, thereby keeping both ends of the zipper teeth closed when aligning them to the center marks for sewing the side seams. Thank you so much for sharing your awesome designs and tutorials with us!
Omg watching the struggle is painful. Yes - wait to put the zipper pull on until tape is sewn, insert it twice so both ends are closed, and start wrong side out for the vinyl. ❤
Yay! I made the clear vinyl version with jelly vinyl (more opaque, less sticky) and it’s the perfect size to hold my Accucheck Guide glucose meter that I need to always have with me for when my insulin pump wants a test. Holds meter, lancing device, strip box, extra lancing cartridge, and alcohol wipes. Perfectly small and slides in and out of my purse so easily. ❤
Just made my first bitty bag, love it. There is brown paper on the back which is protective backing you just peel off in case anyone was wondering. I was one of those. 😂
I had Itty Bitty Boxy Bag fever when I saw your first tutorial. I’ve made a lot of these. It’s even more fun with the templates and all the fun vinyls and WPC. Thanks for another great tutorial Jess.
Your first video of these are the first tutorial I ever watched and I was HOOKED! You are amazing! What did you make your binding for the vinyl bag out of? I couldn’t really tell. Thanks!
Question about the binding pieces on the clear vinyl: what is the material of the binding? Is it like a bias tape situation with the raw edges enclosed or something totally different that I’m not grasping 🙈 (I feel like it’s the latter but still can’t wrap my head around it 😂). Thanks! Love your videos! You make everything look so easy & that’s very encouraging.
Hi Jess, love your videos. Is the a pdf pattern for the patterns pieces so I can print out so I know where grommets etc go. I love in Australia and postage is a killer. Thanks.

Will you be re-stocking the itty bitty templates anytime soon? I went to your store to get it and ended up spending $100+ on a bunch of other stuff and templates 😳 Please announce when you will have the itty bitty template again. Thank you.
Are you sharing the measurements of your new itty bitty boxy bags or do I you only sell the templates with them? I totally understand if you aren’t sharing the measurements. Thanks so much Jess
Those are so cute. I have been looking for a purse pattern with lots of pockets and I know you had a video on it but can't remember the name of it, would you have an idea?
I love these. I won’t be able to get templates. Wondering if the box corner measurement was stated as I don’t seem to hear what it is. Can someone let me know what it is?
I'm so frustrated. Can anyone help? My bottom thread just keeps looking up and making a mess. I've rethreaded and put in a new needle. The stitching is perfect on any other fabric. The issue is only with the vinyl. I've also tried with tissue paper underneath
My favorite tutorial yet, thanks Jess. You mentioned the dimensions on the template version are slightly larger. Can you give the cutting sizes so I can try one out at the new size? I’m planning to order templates when you restock, but considering it took months for me to get the snack bag templates (I was never quick enough😂) I’m afraid it might be awhile.
I have been watching your channel for three years and I am so sorry that I have to unsubscribe due to the increasing number of expensive templates and the fact that I am learning nothing because I can't afford all these changes your making ...❤😢

Is there a video for this technique? Please and thankyou!@@DrofJustice
Your video on these you did about your Disney cruise is how I found bag making! 😊

I made 40 of the original itty bitty bag for my friend’s daughters bridal shower as gifts for guests. They loved it.
Adore that star wars fabric, need to have some just to admire ❤
I just made my clear vinyl first one. It is so adorable! Going to make a few more for gifts. Thank you are the best!
The only trouble is that I love this so much, I can't stop making them. I have four done now.

So happy a got the temples. Love them thank you again for the great video your the best ❤❤
I'm finally watching this and I learned about the non slip spray from you in a different video. It's amazing!
I would recommend using a zipper jig (i think its gypsy quilter brand) and leave the zipper pull off until the zipper tape is all sewn in place
Another awesome and fun tutorial, I appreciate you and your channel
Oh yay! I just got the itty bitty boxy templates too lol. I bought so many.. I love all the templates.
Woohooo I just ordered mine.
Your first video of these are the first tutorial I ever watched and I was HOOKED! You are amazing! What did you make your binding for the vinyl bag out of? I couldn’t really tell. Thanks!
Wow Jess! This is the first video I watched of yours! I LOVE YOUR TUTORIALS ❤

Love your videos! You make everything look so easy & that’s very encouraging.
She uses a non-fraying fabric, typically, like Cork or vinyl
Thanks!!!
Can someone tell me where I can buy the binding that is used to cover the vinyl edge on the zipper of the clear Bitty?
Hi Jess, love your videos. Is the a pdf pattern for the patterns pieces so I can print out so I know where grommets etc go. I love in Australia and postage is a killer. Thanks.
Never mind found what I needed after watching video again sorry
Jess, what sewing foot do you use normally when you’re making bags? Thank you for this video. Itty Bitties are so cute…
I would love to get a set of your templates.

Do you have a tutorial on the Esmeralda bag and the zip n go bag? If not, will you, please?
Sold out....darn it
Will you be re-stocking the itty bitty templates anytime soon? I went to your store to get it and ended up spending $100+ on a bunch of other stuff and templates 😳 Please announce when you will have the itty bitty template again. Thank you.
Where do you purchase the vinyl?
Are you sharing the measurements of your new itty bitty boxy bags or do I you only sell the templates with them? I totally understand if you aren’t sharing the measurements. Thanks so much Jess
Hopefully can get the template!
Those are so cute. I have been looking for a purse pattern with lots of pockets and I know you had a video on it but can't remember the name of it, would you have an idea?
It was hard to see the lines on the templates on the mat you used for the background. But clever idea for cute bags.
I love these. I won’t be able to get templates. Wondering if the box corner measurement was stated as I don’t seem to hear what it is. Can someone let me know what it is?
Jess where did u get your rainbow key chain w lobster clasp?
I'm so frustrated. Can anyone help? My bottom thread just keeps looking up and making a mess. I've rethreaded and put in a new needle. The stitching is perfect on any other fabric. The issue is only with the vinyl. I've also tried with tissue paper underneath
Do you use the same thread for piecing bags together and top stitching?
Would you post the templates to the UK?
Where do you buy clear vinyl?
Doae any one know where to buy a rivets gun press the pink one

Can anyone tell me how far down on the corner to sew. I do not have the template with the triangle
Slide your ruler over the triangle until the bottom edge of the triangle is one inch wide
Where can I get the pattern?
The measurements are included, above, for each piece.
Does anyone make these and sell them? What do you sell them for?
I sell mine for $8-$10
This what dollar stores are for hahahahaha🤣
