Erica, you share your talent, teaching, time and patterns freely with us. To the 7 dislikers I say...SCROLL PAST and don't be haters, where are YOUR sewing videos???? I thank you sincerely for sharing. Hugs Kate in New York ❣
I made this bag with the Dallas Cowboys fabric. I entered it in this year's, 2023, Texas State Fair and won a 3rd place ribbon! Thank you Erica for your great step by step tutorial!
Thanks for a great video. I especially appreciate your no-nonsense approach-straight to the point without a lot of unnecessary chatter. You explained everything clearly & covered all aspects. Well done.
Thank you for the great pattern and tutorial. I was looking for a tote or bag pattern that I could use for diaper bags. I took your pattern and modified it, made it only 18 inches wide, added full pockets inside and two extra inside on the ends (total 8 pockets). I sewed these for a ministry at my church. We have a 12 week discipleship class for pregnant single mothers. After they complete the classes the ladies at the church help with giving them a baby shower. Our Spring 2024 class is just finishing up. I made a bag for each of the young women.........They are such nice bags; I will be making them again for the fall class..... Thanks again for your clear and precise tutorial, Theresa in Texas
I made the bag using your pattern I bought and TH-cam tutorial. It turned out so cute and now I’m on my second one! I love it! Thank you for so generously offering this tutorial. The step by step instructions made me have confidence and helped me build my skills. Plus…I have a new gorgeous little bag!! I’m so happy!!
I have made this multiple times. I did not do your inside pocket but adapted it with mesh pockets on each side of the bag on the inside. Easy peasy. LOVE IT! Have also made the smaller one. They make wonderful gifts!
I have had this video saved forever and finally watched! I just have to say that your an awesome teacher! I’m definitely making these for my daughter, daughter in law and mom for Christmas! Thank you Erica!
I have been watching a lot of bag videos but they all seem so complicated this was so nice and simple with a perfect end result. Now I’m finally confident to try making a zipper bag!
I JUST finished this bag and I am very proud of myself as I am a brand new quilter and only have the Brother LX3817 (a very tiny beginner machine) and I will post a pic with your hashtag soon. Thank you for your amazing tutorials. I am so happy that I have found your channel. I am also doing your QAL for this year and cannot wait till Thursday for the next block to come out!
I made this bag over the fourth of July weekend. It turned out really cute. I make almost all of your bags.... I thought this one was a lot harder, but so worth it. Thank you for your tutorials!!
I am a seasoned sewer and still found this bag a bit difficult, but, as you say, worth it. The instructions were great except that another time I might cut the foam interfacing smaller than indicated. Glad I challenged myself to do it. Would send a photo if I could figure out how 🤔.
Thank you Erica! I followed your tutorial and made this bag!! I had to take a few deep breaths before going round corners. I've never done corners before but I did it!!! Thank you again.
I have just found you and you make this look so easy, I'm inspired to get my sewing machine out and start creating! God bless you and thank you for this pattern & tutorial.
I love this bag! I’ve made one for my granddaughter and I’m in the process of 2 more for the grandsons. Your video definitely helped me and made the process much easier! 🩷
just finished my bag. honestly it was the hardest thing i have ever made to this point in my short sewing life. In the end it turned out fine. And I learned a lot thank you for the wonderful tutorial !
Loved this tutorial. Found it very easy to follow. Thanks so much. I've just finished my first bag with scraps from my quilting scraps. Will make another.
Just purchased the pattern for the smaller one. So so pleased you have this video as it’s really helped me to understand what to do as I’m more of a visual learner. Many thanks
I made that bag a few years ago. I wish you would have been my teacher at that time. I had such a hard time putting mine together. I literally had to take an extra class along with a few more of my friends. Thank you so much for clarification. I’m ready to finish another one..from Innisfil Ontario Canada 🇨🇦
I have now made two of these for our cruise come January. And I absolutely LOVE them. You are AWESOME at showing us exactly what to do! Of course, my second one came out better lol Practice makes perfect! THANK YOU, AGAIN!
I made this Quilty Weekend Zipper Tote with the new Pioneer Woman Fabric and it turned out Great! You always have great patterns and easy instructions. Can't wait to see what's next!! :)
I love this bag. It would make great gifts for my daughter and DIL. And I could even man/boy it up for my grandson that’s 15. Awesome bag. Thanks so very much for the perfect tutorial. God bless. 👏🏻💕👏🏻

This is the eighth bag that i have made. This one is for me! This is going to be my carry on bag. We are going to Scilly for our 20th wedding anniversary. How many pairs of shoes do you think i can get away with taking! 😂 Trying to figure out how to attach a picture.
I loved the tied bag you made previously, but I REALLY love this bag! It’s so professional looking, and yet you make each step look so simple and straight forward, I feel like I might even be able to make it! Thank you for another awesome video. 😁
I made the Weekend Tote with ties, and loved it. Can't wait to sew this one too! Just to support you, I went ahead and purchased the patterns. Thank you so much for the wonderful tutorial.

First just let me say I paid for a class to make this bag and it was not an easy project AND none of the raw edges inside were finished. THANK YOU for this tutorial. It’s the same bag but your construction is so much easier and there are no raw edges! I look forward to making my next bag!
I love your tutorials. They are perfect as is your sewing patterns. You make it look sew easy but I still have mess ups on what I do but I’m trying to get better.

I love all the ideas of covering the raw edges and , also the ties from the fat quaters to use to cover the raw edges.
