Exactly! Thanks for watching, this was super fun and pretty easy even for beginners :D

Note: basting stitch is long, usually the longest stitch on your machine.

Yep! I've done other videos talking about different stitch types, so I assume my audience is aware. Maybe I should mention it each time in case some folks are new. Thanks for helping people out :)

I thought I would be seeing an over-the-shoulder bag until I saw the pieces you had cut out in preparation. I really liked the fabric you used and seeing my machine being used so I enjoyed the video. Thanks for the laugh about the deodorant. I can totally relate to finding all the stink of people very annoying. You will need to make a separate bag or pouch for your phone with a bag that isn't fully lined. Even serged edges can scratch the front glass, camera lenses, and loosen front screen protector. You can sew a loop into the seams when you sew your gussets to clip another pouch inside. Or sew over the already sewn seam on a belt loop to attach an inside loop. Also keeps the pickpockets from snatching your phone or other valuables. I've learned to include a loop or two in every bag I make. Just food for thought. I know you were keeping it simple, following an existing pattern, but some minor modifications aren't difficult to add for a beginner.

The deodorant comment made me think this would be a great washbag for trips, lined with vinyl inside as well. One big strap on the back instead of the belt loops. Thanks Tock!

I would put fray check over where you trimmed the serge corners just to ensure that the don't eventually start coming out after repeated use.

This is very nice 👌 it would make a very nice toiletry bag with a few alterations main alteration being the zipper being across the top possibly a double zipper with a pull strap to open or close.Would be an interesting project for a toiletry bag for us guys for vacations

I always love your sewing videos! This looks like so much fun to make. Thanks for another great tutorial. Also, nice belt 😉

That remark about deodorant at the end made me laugh so hard. Anyone who's ever been to a convention relates xD Lovely tutorial, thanks for posting. A silly question: did you use denim needle for the vinyl? BTW love the rainbow overlocker stitch, such a fun detail

lol, some people stink at cons! There's always room for some good advice there :) I did use denim needles on this project, but I could have used something lighter if I wanted. This vinyl was super thing, so anything would have been fine :) Thanks for watching!

You’ve opened my eyes to the glorious wonder that is fray check, now I need to get me some basting spray p.s. I enjoyed that you showed your mistake of accidentally not cutting a piece of the pattern long enough, it’s a good reminder that even experienced sewers can make mistakes and that us newbies shouldn’t stress too much about ours

It's basically the same thing :) It's typical for costumers and cosplayers to go to conventions a lot, and extra storage space is always needed! Thanks for watching, hope you're having a wonderful weekend!

You might find basting tape easier to use and less messy than the spray.... also you can sew through it without gumming up your needle..😁

That’s nice I’m getting into sewing but just thought about how I don’t know what fabrics to buy .. I went to start with making a Japanese futon mattress so I thought u should watch some tutorials first

This might not be the place for it but I have a suggestion for a tutorial video... Show the various stitches and seams you can make with a serger machine. 4 thread overlock 3 thread overlock 3 thread super stretch overlock narrow rolled hem wide rolled hem and all the others I can't thin of at the moment also I am interested in the cover stitch /serger machine particularly whether two machines would be better then a combination machine. cheers

I just bought a combination machine which I love (Pfaff Coverlock). I plan things out so I don’t have to switch back and forth between functions in the middle of a project, which takes a few minutes each time. I highly recommend trying one out in person so you can see how difficult it is to rethread.

@TockCustom

I am willing to bet you machine is sticky now if there is any uncovered fabric with spay on it, the spay sticks to everything it takes a long time to dry... good technique

Actually, basting spray doesn't gum up my needle at all. Sticky-back Velcro is the WORST though... I learned that a long time ago lol

Do you have one on how to make a makeup pencil pouch where the zipper is at the top, not the center.

I noticed you cut through the serger stitch - I do not own a serger, so I would be zig zagging, does cutting through it not make it undo?

What size needle are you using for this material?

@TockCustom

3 жыл бұрын

I just used a denim needle, and my heavy duty Brother ST150HDH. You don't need a heavy duty machine for vinyl... but it makes it smooth as glass!

I had to pause the video at 12:27 (while you were about half through clipping the side gusset to the back panel) to attend to a visitor at the door. When I came back to restart the video something about the still image bothered me. It took a few minutes to realize the mistake you were making, I assume you will correct the mistake once the video starts again or you will not be able to turn your bag right-side out when you finish sewing the back panel. EDIT - I was right right you fixed it..... lol
