I have purchased this pattern and would like to do the zipper panel in the middle. I have never made a bag similar to this can you tell me what to do on the dimensions?
Hi Phyllis! I cut each zipper panel to 1.5” wide by the length in the pattern. Then I increased my bottom gusset to match the final size of the zipper panels. Hope that helps!
Hi!! It’s a pleasure every time I get to see you working!! Thanks for the great tutorials. What size needles and type do you use for vinyl please? Thank you!!
can you give a list of what you cut, I want the 2 pieces for the zipper, yours is different from the pattern also what measurements did you use for the binding?
I used 3/4” wide binding. For the zipper gussets I increased my base by about 1/2” and then made 2 zipper panels to match. I didn’t change the length of any zipper panels!
I have a roll dedicated to jelly binding. So I cut a 3/4” strip x width of the roll. Then I cut that in 2. So roughly 26-27” long x 3/4” wide is what makes my binding. It’s the perfect length and width
Thank you so much for the great, and very informative, video! I do have a question about the front zipper pocket. Did putting the zipper in the front piece make it so much bigger or did you cut it bigger to begin with?
Glad you liked it! Placing the zipper and doing everything right side up with the clear vinyl is why my piece ended up being bigger. If you do this where the zipper and fabric are right sides together, turn and top stitch your pieces should end up being the right size if you take the right seam allowance!
Hi. Thanks for the video. What are zipper overlays made of and what is their measurement? Also I am confused around 53:56 about front panel being cut to pattern piece yet it is longer than that 2nd panel of clear but then being cut off after that seam; I'm watching over again cause I'm sure I missed something.
The zipper overlays are .5” jelly vinyl! The front panel just gets trimmed up from adding a zipper. But I’m adding the zipper and panel both right side up. Instead of right sides together, flip and top stitch. So I end up with a little extra space since no seam allowance is taken. That’s why I trim. Hopefully it makes sense.
I am new to sewing, so adjusting patterns is a little confusing for me. You doubled the zipper panel, I like that, but, the gusset I’ll be wider, right? And is the gusset still 15 1/2? I bought pattern and templates, but, not sure of measurements now. I love your teaching and bags. Thank you
I understand, didn’t mean to make you feel uncomfortable. I did figure it out, I think, just spoke too soon. I love your very understanding videos. Thank you so much for getting back to me. Happy Friday❤️
I would love to take a class from you where are you located? Do you sell the hardware and vinyl. I don't know where to buy any of this stuff. I love all of the bags you make.
I do not sell any hardware or vinyl. Only finished bags. I would suggest joining the group “sew whatever” on facebook if you haven’t already. There are a lot of resources in there. As for classes, some day I hope to be able to teach at sew magical! But unfortunately it’s not something I’d be able to offer to the local community on an ongoing basis ❤️
@@Six-Stitches I am trying to decide between an industrial or something like a juki tl18qvp but i want to be able to sew vinyl and not worry about the bulk. Any advice appreciated.
@@dixie9290 I have a Juki TL2000qi (I think similar to the one you are referring to). I don’t use it often but it definitely can not handle a lot of layers of vinyl.
Hello from Las Vegas. Your stitches look great as always. (You might want to say something about making the characters ones for your kids/family to avoid copyright/trademark infringement trouble. They are cracking down.)

Your camera angle and you’re explanations are great
Thanks so much Marlene! So happy you are here 🥰
I agree!!! They are Both Perfect!
You are truly my favorite bag making instructor. Thank you.
Thank you so much Tracy 🥰
People are very active where I live and they have also said the strap was way too long. Glad to hear you think so too. I will adjust mine.
Thank you 🥰 hope people enjoy the shorter strap more!
Such a great idea to use clear vinyl on the interior pocket piece! Thanks for sharing!
Thank you!
Thank you so much for this video!! I enjoy listening to your voice!!

Great video. Thanks for sharing.
You’re welcome!
Thank you so much for the tutorial. I am about to tackle my first vinyl project. Will you please share what size thread you are using?
You’re welcome! I use tex 70 in my industrial
This is such a great tutorial! Did you make the gusset bigger/need to, to accomodate adding the additional zipper panel?
Yes I did

So cute! I think I need to try a vinyl Mac pack, thank you.
What stitch length do you use for vinyl?
I usually use a 4 but it can really depend on what I’m doing. For construction I definitely use a 4 though. Sometimes for too stitching I’ll do 4.5-5
Thanks
Hi!! It’s a pleasure every time I get to see you working!! Thanks for the great tutorials.
What size needles and type do you use for vinyl please?
Thank you!!
Thank you 🥰 I use a size 19 needle for industrials. Nothing special.
@@Six-Stitches thank you!!
Great tutorial, thank you. Subscribed 🎉
Awesome, thank you!
I like that you have 2 sides on the zipper. Does that mean you need to change the size of the main panel when you increase the width of the zipper?
I only changed the zip panels to 1.5” wide and then i creased the bottom gusset to match.

Great video, did you cut your jelly binding, just like you would fabric when piecing it together or did you buy the jelly binding?

So did you end up adjusting how you sewed the zipper ends to make it possible to fit your phone on the rest of them?
I just made my zipper 5.5” or 6” long instead of 5. Then trimmed the over hang on my zip tabs. Then my phone fit 😊

The gusset is wider, right?
My panel is now, 5 1/4, I hope this is right, help!
I’m sorry but I can’t provide any lengths in order to protect the information in the pattern 😞
I understand, didn’t mean to make you feel uncomfortable. I did figure it out, I think, just spoke too soon. I love your very understanding videos. Thank you so much for getting back to me. Happy Friday❤️
My top thread is bunching on the bottom ? What am I doing wrong. I have made several backpacks using vinyl and never had issues. Can you help?
Have you tried tightening your tension?
Yes still having problems what tension do you use.

Thank you so much!! I use a Juki DU-1181N industrial machine. I love it so much 😍

It’s all linked in the video description 😀
Love your video! What is the tool called that is threading your zipper? Also, where do you get your vinyl? It is so cute!
It’s called a zipper jig! All of my clear vinyl sources are listed in the description of the video 🥰
Hello from Las Vegas. Your stitches look great as always. (You might want to say something about making the characters ones for your kids/family to avoid copyright/trademark infringement trouble. They are cracking down.)
Thank you so much!
Do you cut the vinyl by hand or with a cutting machine like a Cricut ?
I cut everything by hand 😍
Can you tell me where the description of the shope you purchased items from is? I saw pltidbows listed, but cannot find whee the description is. Thank you!
I don’t understand the question.
Does your needle not get all gummed up
It does not!
Love the clear version of this! Where do you get your jelly roll vinyl from? Thank you!
I have a bunch of shops linked in the description but my favorite is plaidbowco.com/

Great tutorial. How long did it take you to complete all 8?
Thank you! Each one took roughly an hour to make.
@@Six-Stitches Does that include the cutting and interfacing/guess no interfacing?
you need to sell kits
I definitely would if there was enough interest!
Where did you buy the vinyl
I have all of the shops linked in the description 😁
good morning
Good Morning!!
How many yard the webbing strap for young girls instead of 56” .?
I believe I used 40 inches. So just over a yard.
Thank you
What is jelly binding?
Hi Lexy! It’s just 3/4” strips of Jelly vinyl that I fold around the raw edges to make the binding 😀
@@Six-Stitches oh, okay, haha. I thought it was something new I hadn't heard of and when I did a search, I couldn't find it😂
@@lexycorreia haha no nothing new or fancy. I just cut up a roll of the matte jelly vinyl 🪄
Who is the teal vinyl from at 27 min?
I do believe that is an old one from moremeknow.com. I have had it for quite a long time.
What machine are you using? If you decide to make the original Mav, cotton, liining etc.......I would Love to see you do it as well.
Hi Janet! I sew with a Juki DU-1181N 😀
Where do you get your snap hooks?
My snap hooks all come from emmaline bags
