- I just received a few canvas totes to add to my summer flea market shop. In this video I show how I am going spruce them up! These are large bags, perfect for a market bag or a beach bag. The size is 17" wide, 15" tall with a 6" bottom.

I really like the way you did the stitch painting. You always encourage me to just relax and just enjoy the process. A nice way to dress up the tote.
Hi Julia! You made this bag so cute and cozy! The way you record your sewing, close up is so enjoyable and helpful to see. I love your videos. Thank you
Thank you so much for your comment. Your feedback really helps. I’m not very technical so it means allot.😊
Wow! I always jump on YT when I know you have uploaded something! I'm a huge fan! ~Caroline from Napa, CA.
Yay! Thank you! I’m so glad you are enjoying my videos!
This is very beautiful and I love the sunflower! I think sunflowers are a happy flower, always looking towards the Sun!
I think so too!
This is so cool, Julia! 😍
Thanks Cat!
Hi Julia! I enjoyed seeing how you transformed this plain tote into a beauty! Thanks for the inspiration!
And the purple beads! How adorable! Also, thank you for a new and easy way to add those snaps! Love those oversized bags, too. I have several of their smaller ones. Thank you so much, Julia! Have a fantastic vacation! I have a LOT of seam rippers and would be happy to send you one! 😁

Your comment made me laugh! I forgot the most basic necessities on this trip. I was so excited to escape the snow drifts!
@stitchesbyjulia I bet! 😆 Even here in Arizona, we've had multiple snow storms! ❄️ 😳
We are looking forward to a nice long Spring here! 🤞🙏🤞

Really cute! Interesting way of thread painting!
Your embellishments are adorable! Probably the hardest thing to do is pulling the bag open enough to sew only on the front or only on the back! It looks like those bags are sort of stiff, which is good for market bags. Thanks for the inspiration, Julia!
Hi, true that’s the hardest part when working on a tote. This tote is large making it quite easy. Thanks so much for watching. Julia
Beautiful 🥰
Oh I really like this idea. I just got a bunch of totes I was going to heat transfer with but now I'm going to try this idea. Such a wonderful idea.
You are so welcome! Totes are a quick project.
Thanks Julia, brilliant ideas as always, would love to try thread painting but haven't had the confidence so far, maybe I will now. Beautiful bag x
I kid you not, at the end of last month I came to see if you had any videos on sprucing up tote bags! I love this
Hope you enjoyed it! Thanks for watching!
Once again I love this tote Julia ! You make me want to get in there and sew and sew. Thankyou for sharing how you did this.
I love what you have done with this bag, never tried free motion embroidery but you make it look so easy and fun that I am going to try this project. The stencil is a great finishing touch. Thanks for sharing xx
Hi Julia. Beautiful bag. I’m still trying to catch up. Hope you’re doing well. Thanks for sharing 11:02 pm. 😊
Cute! Giving me some great ideas and I have never sewn sideways with the zigzag stitch! Interesting, I’ll try this. Good to see you , take care. ❤️
Such a cute bag! Thank you! I have a question: since the bag is unlined, what color bobbin thread do you use?
Hi, I’m using a white bobbin. These bags can easily be lined but I try to keep the price down when I sell them at my flea market shop.
the link to your canvas bag, seems to be different because the link has zipper and inside pocket ?
