I bought a little bag exactly like this one when I was on vacation in the US. After years of (every day) use, the bag is now 'beyond repair'. So I went looking for a pattern to make one myself! So happy that I found your video with exactly the type of bag I want! Thank you!!! Very helpful!
Terrific video! Easy to follow. Well explained. You have done the hard work of figuring everything out and sharing exact dimensions. Great custom phone bag for when you’re traveling or even gardening. Awesome job! 🥰
Thanks for this great video. Just a couple of suggestions: It would have been helpful if you had used a lighter color than black so that viewers could get a better look at what you were doing. Also would have been better for many of us if you had used standard zippers, or at least reminded us when it was time to make sure the zipper tab was towards the middle and then trim the excess zipper off. Not trying to be critical but hopefully helpful.
Please show what you are doing directly after sewing. Because what you come back to the work station with has the zipper right side out and begore it was sandwiched in the middle and i have no idea how you got there.

@@SewVeryCrafty I already ripped it out. Thank you so much for getting back to me. I don’t know what to do with the zipper teeth and the fabric attached to zipper teeth.
@@gstirl The fabric should not be attached to the zipper teeth. it should be attached to the zipper tape. Have you looked at the blog post. It has still photos that may help you better.

Thank you for your comment. It really makes a difference. I am always trying to improve.
@14:17 when did the zipper got from the middle of to the outside?

Got it.
What are the finished dimensions?
Would love you to do a video of the bum bag you have on your web site
I have two in the web site. One is a flat one and one is three dimensional.. Which one are you interested in?
It was the waist bag thankyou for replying I have learnt a lot From you
Could you please add a link to the sliders you use? Thanks.
Are you referring to the zipper sliders or the bra slider to adjust the strap?

Everything was great but I am not sure what to do with the zipper. Folding it towards the main body just made a mess.
I am not sure what you are referring to. can you send me some pictures to Diana@sewverycrafty.com
@@SewVeryCrafty I already ripped it out. Thank you so much for getting back to me. I don’t know what to do with the zipper teeth and the fabric attached to zipper teeth.
At 23:45 when we are finishing the bag and doing the last sew around to the opening, what do I do with the two zipper ends that are in the seam?
@@gstirl The fabric should not be attached to the zipper teeth. it should be attached to the zipper tape. Have you looked at the blog post. It has still photos that may help you better.
@@gstirl Just stitch over the zipper ends. it shouldn't be a problem.
Nice bag, but I wish videos would include measurement conversions...I have no idea what it is here.
Sorry! I will remember to include those in the future. They will be in the description section of the video.
How do I get the instructions on how to put this together
Check out my blog at sewverycrafty.com/learn-to-sew-a-mini-cross-body-bag/
Where do you get your 1/2 inch slide?
I used a bra strap slide that i got at Joanns
@@SewVeryCrafty ty.. I'd never figured that out!
