Im so grateful to YOU, Alexis, for allowing me to be a part of your life! I’ve obviously been seeing and loving your patterns for months. I can’t wait to try them all!
I made this bag for my daughter in a gorgeous disney princess sugar tattoo print and a bright orchid vinyl. It’s my favorite bag of all time, and when I look at it, I still can’t believe I made it! GREAT pattern!
About a week ago I was scrolling through RUclips looking for inspiration. Wasn’t sure if I even wanted to sew again. I have way to many hobbies. After one video I was hooked. I’ve watched so many and ordered enough supplies to make a couple of bags. I am so excited. Thank you so much for sharing your knowledge. Love your tutorials!!
I'm so happy you're doing this one! I searched and searched for the perfect backpack pattern until I found this one. I have already made it a few times and think it is the perfect backpack!!
You are just the bestest ever! Love anything and everything you do, but you know that 💙 Great job being a real human and actually showing the world mistakes. Not many would have done that. Just when I didn't think you couldn't get any better you go ahead and prove me wrong. Proud as punch of You 🤗
I love this 'medium' sized backpack, mainly as a alternative to the small Loungefly bags. We love them to wear to the parks, but honesty they are just too small for a full park day for us. I would love to somehow make the side pockets on this bigger-big enough for a decent sized water bottle. Thanks, as always, for the fantastic, detailed tutorial!
I have this in my shopping cart!! I also have the Estrella Bag and the Monica Carry All Bag! Would LOVE to see you do a tutorial on both of those, and see what beauty you make with your fabric choices!! 💖🤗💖
Love this pattern. I think I would like the side pockets larger and maybe use something a little stretchy. Also, I like a light colored lining to see better inside the bag. Thanks for another great tutorial!!❤️
@@OklaRoots I’m thinking maybe cotton Lycra, wider at both top and bottom but a dart in the bottom to give a “flat” surface for your bottle. My mesh pockets always seem a bit too loose.
Jess, This is just adorable! I've made several of the Oro Rosa Patterns and they are great designs. I have this pattern but have never made it. I do have a friend that uses backpacks and I guess this may be her birthday present. And maybe you can rivet the back straps in place? Thank you for explaining how and why you make the changes you do. That information is very helpful. Thank you!
I'm so excited, can't wait to make it! I love that u tried a different way with the straps but I see what u mean that it hangs different...interesting. Thank u for another great tutorial 👍
I adore Oro Rosa Patterns! So many unique shapes and really well written patterns. My favourites are the new Luna, the Arianne Bucket Backpack and the Magdalena (today... it will change tomorrow!). I'd love to see a tutorial on the Isolina - I've made two now but would have really benefited from a tutorial to follow for the first one!
Hope that you get to do a guardian anti-theft backpack from Lindshandmade soon. Also, have you ever used the legacy flexible sew in foam for your bags?
I would love to see the Arianne Bucket Backpack on your channel!! I have the Zenaida on my pile of pattern to cut, I just need to watch your video and choose fabric!
Please do the Magdalena Circle Bag. I will be getting the pattern in 2 weeks when I return home from Disney. I love your tutorials and they have given me the confidence to start my own business.
I made this today..watching you and Siah Swag, Love the pattern but I hate binding so not sure if I will make another one unless I use all cotton with WPC 🙂Thank you for doing this tutorial!!😘♥
Same. I had to jump between 2 different videos to do the monica carry all.. I'll wait for her for the luz marina. I do not follow patterns well at all.
@@alexisschmidt7469 Awesome! I really don't want to purchase an industrial so I get super excited when something comes out good on my domestic. Thank you so much!
Making the Erica Bowler Bag.....almost done. I've been following the pattern bias binding method...just watched your binding and will use it next time. Do you just cut 1 inch strips of WPC? I definitely think binding makes a better framed bag.
I am such a fan of your method of going with the cutest fabrics for the darn cutest bags. Jess, my suggestion is for the original bag's straps, I would suggest a strap wrap with a snap or two, over the two hand straps, this will keep them together while wearing the bag, you will eliminate the floppy handles, as well as getting them hung up on something around your person. One more thing I have thought of several times is a wood finger, wood iron, as it were, for helping with the 'finger' pressing of the vinyl and or the waxed canvas. You probably have tried this tool, and there may be a reason it doesn't work for you, just saying. Keep up the great tutorials.
Hi Jess! i'm on the hunt for that shiny thicker vinyl (it was the lavender one) from the example bag in the beginning. do you have recollection of where that was from? I dont see it on the indolove website
I love making thing for grandkids and family.but I am having a hard time finding something for marking that doesn't dry out or as pens get all over my hands what do you prefer for marking I am tired of spending money for nothing. Thanks for the help and all the videos
Cute and very useful. Think I would leave off the front handle as it just flops around when being used as a backpack. Also would leave off the piece you added on the straps as it does make it lean out more. May try to leave the straps unseen as you did. It would be a great place to hang a light sweater or blanket. Love your colors.
Looks good but aren't the side pockets crooked? The top of one is even with the front top edge of the slip pocket. The other side looks to be an inch higher than the front pocket edge?
I have been looking for a Backpack pattern for a few weeks…….this looks perfect! Could I ask what sewing machine feet you use? I obviously recognise the zipper foot but which one do you use for your topstitching/8th inch?
I wanna do this bag so bad but I HATE binding. I just don’t like it at all. I 1,000% much rather birth a bag or do a drop in. I avoid binding patterns as much as possible. There is literally two of them that I do & I dread making em 😆
I am so honoured and thrilled that you were able to try out my Zenaida Backpack from Oro Rosa Patterns. You have made my month! Thank you, Jess!
That was a lot of hard work but you did an exceptional job.
Im so grateful to YOU, Alexis, for allowing me to be a part of your life! I’ve obviously been seeing and loving your patterns for months. I can’t wait to try them all!
It makes my heart so full to see the card I made you in the background! 😭💗 Another great video!!!

Wow that’s awesome!! I need a picture!

Well done for your great work. And also thanks for sharing your videos.Is very helpful. ❤👏👏👏👏👍👍👍👍👍
I wish you could make all of Ora Rosa pattern because you explain the process in the best way!! Thank you Jess, always!
They are ALL on my list, absolutely stunning designs!
Ora Rosa patterns are just amazing aren't they? Such a good one.... I just wanted to say too that love the top you are wearing today...so pretty!

Awwww thank you! I’m not smooth enough to cover up my mistakes 😂 They’re usually pretty big ones
Omgosh! Love this backpack. Jess, you are amazing! You make it look so easy ….I’m gonna have to add this to my list…my goodness.
Thank you!!

Estrella is my all-time favorite (so far, lol)
@@scotflower00 I definitely want to make one for my own stash! It's like a sophisticated "hobo" bag! 💖
Ooooooo those both look so good! On the list!
@@OklaRoots 😍😍😍🤗🤗🤗 so excited! ♥️
Omg i want that basket you use for your wonder clips!😍😍
Oh I'm sooooooo happy about this!!!
I’m sooooo happy you’re happy!
Thank you for such an awesome tutorial. This will be the first backpack I make because your tutorial is so amazing!
Ooooooo it’s a good one!! Let me know how it goes!
I'd love to see you make the Monica Carry-all. Also the Lina Cross-Body Purse. Thanks for ALL your tutorials!
Love this pattern. I think I would like the side pockets larger and maybe use something a little stretchy. Also, I like a light colored lining to see better inside the bag. Thanks for another great tutorial!!❤️
I was thinking the same. Maybe even mesh with some elastic binding?
@@OklaRoots I’m thinking maybe cotton Lycra, wider at both top and bottom but a dart in the bottom to give a “flat” surface for your bottle. My mesh pockets always seem a bit too loose.
As usual, you are the best!! I would LOVE to see you make the Oro Rosa Luz Marina Divider Bag! It's a gorgeous bag perfect for the travelling woman. 🙏
Very nice backpack. I love binding.
Jess, This is just adorable! I've made several of the Oro Rosa Patterns and they are great designs. I have this pattern but have never made it.

Thank you!! Yes, a couple rivets could help. Let me know how the backpack goes for your friend!
I love you went rogue on this bag! I think I will implement some of these "happy accidents" when I make mine. Creative wheels are turning.
I'm so excited, can't wait to make it! I love that u tried a different way with the straps but I see what u mean that it hangs different...interesting. Thank u for another great tutorial 👍
I try the quirky ideas so you don’t have to 😉
Super cute! Great tutorial, as always. 💖

It’s on the short list! And I haven’t heard of this flexible foam… time to google!
I would love to see the Erica bowler and the Magdalena circle bag in your tutorials! Thank you so much for your wonderful tutorials!!!😍
You got it!
I would love to see the Arianne Bucket Backpack on your channel!! I have the Zenaida on my pile of pattern to cut, I just need to watch your video and choose fabric!

Ooooo YES! And that bag looks FUN to play around with!

Would love to see your takes on the Luz Marina and the Monica Carryall.
Same. I had to jump between 2 different videos to do the monica carry all.. I'll wait for her for the luz marina. I do not follow patterns well at all.
Easiest backpack I've ever made. I made mine on my domestic using vinyl. I also make it into a convertible backpack.
I was wondering if it could be done in a domestic with vinyl! Thank you 😊
@@vedadaggett2735 Designer here! I sew and design all my patterns with vinyl on two domestics
@@alexisschmidt7469
Awesome! I really don't want to purchase an industrial so I get super excited when something comes out good on my domestic.
Thank you so much!
That’s awesome!! I definitely try to stick with domestic friendly projects.
@@OklaRoots
I most certainly appreciate that 🤗
Awesome tutorial! Thank you so much!
please do another video where you use elastic for the side pockets. I love your videos they are so amazing!

Hi Jess, many thanks for the fabulous tutorial.
Can I ask what size you are using for the magnetic rivet clasps, please?
Don’t know if you’ll see this but is it possible to use cotton wovens with interfacing for this instead of vinyl? Love your tutorial! Thanks so much!
Beautiful thanks God bless
ISOLINA! It’s a pattern I so want to try but it scares me 😂 hoping I’ll conquer the Zenaida now that I can watch you do it 10x
I would love to see you do the Esperanza or the Magdalena (even though I detest curves!!!).
Magdalena is actually the easiest of the binded patterns I offer because of the continuous curve, it actually makes it easier vs sharper curves.

I would like to see the Luz Marina bag.
Hi Jess! i'm on the hunt for that shiny thicker vinyl (it was the lavender one) from the example bag in the beginning. do you have recollection of where that was from? I dont see it on the indolove website
Definitely want to try this one!! So cute! Wondering why you don't sew on your new Beastie?
Quick? What marking tool do you prefer? I can't find anything that works or doesn't dry out. Thanks
From Ora rosa patterns, can you do the Luz Marina please? I like your teaching style
I love making thing for grandkids and family.but I am having a hard time finding something for marking that doesn't dry out or as pens get all over my hands what do you prefer for marking I am tired of spending money for nothing. Thanks for the help and all the videos
Omgosh! I have to make my granddaughter this backpack! What size rivets and snap did you use?
I'd love to see a backpack ideal sized for school to fit a 1" binder and a textbook
I love you videos. Please where I can find the colorful print fabric u use. Thanks 😊
Where did you get the Disney fabric, I just love it!!
Hey Jess do you ever use the Tex 45 thread in your bobbin. If so are there any issues
Would you recommend a walking foot if using domestic machines?
Where did you get the Tex 45 thread? Will the Tex 40 from WAWAK work?
Do you still sew bags with your 1541?
Great back! Great video!!

My standard foot is the 97d BERNINA foot.
This is a cutie of a backpack. Have you tried WD40 on your stuck dies for your KAM snap press? The WD40 is a wonderful product.
I haven’t yet. It’s “stuck”, but I’ve been pretty lazy about unsticking it’s
Why the left side pocket is higher than the right one?
Where can I purchase this pattern?
Where you buy your zippers from
When are you going to do the Dayna your videos are the best to watch so I can't wait to see you do the Dayna
It’s on the list! No date set, though.
How come you’re not using your heat press to press the decovil light to the pieces?
Because it’s in the other room and I don’t want to move the camera 😉
I don’t think you need that strap in the back. Just a put a short one in the seam. Isn’t it used for hanging? The double strap is more like a tote.
is there a kit for the backpack?
I haven’t seen one, but that’s a GREAT idea!
I wanna do this bag so bad but I HATE binding. I just don’t like it at all. I 1,000% much rather birth a bag or do a drop in. I avoid binding patterns as much as possible. There is literally two of them that I do & I dread making em 😆
