Just made this today. It was fun, easy and adorable. I quilted the main piece with canvas on outside and cotton lining and self adhesive batting and canvas on top but I made it 8 inches.
Thanks for taking the time to explain everything-others often skip steps or go so fast you miss the steps-you are a great teacher
THE TUBE WAY! This is exactly how I make my pillowcases SO AWESOME!!
I have made grocery bags with left over material, but I have to say this is beyong clever, beautiful & easy.. can't wait to try this new method. Thank you.
It was so fun listening to you talking & giggling. Then you said stop talking ALREADY. What joy I felt as I could hear my precious Mom say that phrase. She passed away 1996. She was a fabulous seamstress. I learned so many things from her that helped me become a very good sewer. I’m nearly 80 & love sewing still. Continue teaching & modeling for people who don’t know how to sew using a pattern.

Wonderful!
This is a great tutorial. I just finished making my first bag using this method and have some tips. I didn't have the pre-quilted cotton on hand so used 2 layers of cotton + Warm & Natural quilt batting. It sews together very well; however, when topstitching the upper piece over the handles, it's really thick. Use a heavy-duty/leather needle. Wish I thought of this before I broke a needle! When topstitching, I sewed across the handle, turned the entire unit and sewed the handle to the top piece. When I got back to where the seams meet, I sewed over the handle piece a second time. Seemed easier to me than starting and stopping to attach the 4 handle areas plus reinforces the strap by the seam. Lastly, overall this is an easy, fun and functional bag and can be adjusted to any size you'd like. My handles were 21" long and I could have made them longer, as some of it is taken up when you sew them to the upper piece. Because I used batting, it was very thick to pull through the upper piece. I actually put on my gripper glove to help it along. For a more lightweight bag, this could be made easily without the batting. Glad I found this channel and tutorial!

Thank you for explaining things step by step. This will be my first time sewing anything together. Wish me luck.😊
This is the magic pillow case pattern, except it has straps. Very good idea 🙂
Love your tutorial. I taught sewing classes for 8 years in our homeschool co-op. This would have been good project for that. It reminds me of the sausage roll pillowcase. I would change one thing in your tutorial. I would baste the straps down about 3” vertically in order to keep them in place while pinning and rolling.
