Let's Sew a Reversible Shopping Tote in Any Size with an Expandable Fold Flat Bottom

Тәжірибелік нұсқаулар және стиль

In this step-by-step tutorial, I demonstrate how you can make a reversible shopping tote in any size. I have a free downloadable worksheet that will help you calculate the size tote that you would like to make or feel free to make yours with the measurements I use in the video. This tote is completely reversible with no exposed seams. It has an expandable bottom and folds flat when not in use. The sides are stitched together in such a way that the seams will not pull apart which means that there will be no sagging of the interior bag regardless of which side of the bag is on the exterior. I used 100% cotton quilting fabric for the tote and there is no need for any interfacings. The bag goes together very quickly. I hope that you enjoy the tutorial and give the tote a try. There are Timestamps below to help you skip around the video. Thanks for watching! Please like and subscribe.

    Love your videos! Clear directions with no fluff. I get so irritated when there is music, silly girl talk or unprepared teachers on what seems like the majority of videos out there. I am so glad I stumbled on to your site. Thank you!

    I love this bag the way it is but I want to make a bunch using only 2 fabrics, one for the exterior and one for the lining, with no top band. I can't figure out how to do that. Maybe it's not possible. I've made quite a few lined bags with boxed corners where you leave a turning whole in the bottom or side of the lining. The gusset though. I just don't know what to do

    I can't make this. I'm so careful in the measuring and pressing the bottom folds and every time it is terrible. The exterior fabric fold doesn't sit close enough to the inside fold of the lining fabric and it just bunches up. 😢 I want so bad to make this fold flat bottom but I'm going to have to stick to the boxed bottom when I want a lined bag. I just feel like a total failure right now😭 It's okay. I'm good at doing a boxed bottom. 😊
