Beautiful project. Thank you for demonstrating. For machine binding, my preference is wrong side, to right side with topstitch 1/16th from edge and a slightly longer stitch. It is the only way to eliminate flanging as you point out.
Fantastic information and tutorial. Many thanks for sharing your pattern and its proportions. It is a most impressive bag and one I admired as recently as last night. ❤🎉❤
I like this simple project and I think it would be good to teach our beginning sewing class because they seem to really like to make bags! I think it would be really nice to quilt a simple crosshatch pattern with the soft and stable. Thank you so much for this beginner friendly tutorial!
Some of us don’t have a Bernina machine 🥴. But I am an experienced seamstress. I’m also wondering if it can be made somewhat smaller? I do like the whole bag idea 😊 Thanks for sharing all of this!
I actually changed nothing at all when I did this! That machine is a BEAST and just sews through everything! If I were worried about it, I would use sewing advisor and let it change the presser foot pressure and stitch length for the weight of fabric I was using.
Sure! You could put traditional fabric bag straps on it easily. Decide the length you want, then cut 3” strips to that length. I, personally, would use strapping and fold the fabric over the strapping then top stitch it. Fold raw edges under, then place and stitch onto your bag!
Thank you Lisa! It’s an excellent video. I really like this bag. It will make great gifts. 😊

I meant to ask if you recommend using a bias binding with the curved edges?
I didn’t, it’s a very gentle curve and I had no puckering!
Ok, this tutorial was so well done, i really think i can make this! Thanks.
Beautuful bags look like they will be very strong and roomy. Great video!
That bag is beautiful! I am going to make that! Great Christmas gifts!
How pretty and easy
Thanks for sharing
I will have to try that 10d the next time i am adding binding! Great tip!
Great bag! Thank you!

You absolutely could make it smaller…just keep the proportions! Share your pic if you do!!
What do you change your pressure foot too and the stitch length too on your bernina?? I have that machine too and never sure what changes to amke

Can stitch the binding both a compensating foot .
Great bag , great tutorial !
Has anyone come up with alternate straps for this bag?
