I have literally learned everything I know from your videos. I have a very hard time learning new things. When I first got my sewing machine last year I knew absolutely nothing. I went through everyone's RUclips channel and yours was the easiest for me to understand. Thank you for your videos!
Thanks for this! I'm an experience sewer and just needed a refresher, but WOW! A youtuber that is prepped and ready with steps already done ahead and not doing it all in real time?! A tutorial that was fast, concise, and to the point?! And informative for a beginner without being condescending or jargon-y... I'm in awe. I will definitely be checking out the rest of your channel and your store! (got to support those doing it right!)
You are so adorable! I'm very new to sewing and your tutorials are fantastic! The pacing is perfect for me to follow along, and you don't drag along with needless chatter like other videos! You are definitely my favorite sewing teacher. Thank you for all you contribute to the crafting and sewing community! Because of you, my projects look neat, clean, and not handmade!
I love how well you explain things. Your projects are really good and well made. I love how you add all links and descriptions in the boxes below. Thank you from a bringer crafter..
I 100% agree! Seeing that wall of interfacing (as a basic pattern and eas-project sewing kinda gal) is SUPER intimidating. I was looking at it for another pattern I was using, and seriously the people in the fabric store I go to are so lovely and patient with us non-sewing-knowing people! They helped me get on track and were super encouraging for my project!!! When in doubt, ask the people in the store they can have great input and maybe even make recommendations for future projects!
Hi. I'm from South Africa and It's the first time I'm seeing your channel. I love the way you present the tutorials. I'm definitely going to make some bins. God bless and thanks again. 😊 💐
You are so awesome. I love your videos but mostly I love your happy personality. You keep it real and fun! Thanks for giving so much to the sewing community. I'm gonna make some baskets right now!
Had to pause to comment..love how simple and thorough your videos are..you make sewing look so easy (when sometimes it can be so frustrating) and enjoyable! A long time subbie from the Caribbean.
This is so cute! Going to have to make a few. When ever I’m ‘top stitching’ and there are two different color of fabrics, I always change my bobbin thread and/or needle thread to match my fabric. Believe it or not I’ve never been given a ticket by bobbin police! LOL! Those little added details really make a project look professional! Thanks for sharing yours,
This is such a lovely sewing project. I've watched it a few times. Great to see you back online Dana. I'm looking forward to seeing some new videos from you. I'm based all the way over in Ireland. It's a long way from Texas but your videos are the best ones I have come across. You are a great teacher!
Wow, I just made one of these to replace the scruffy amazon delivery box I've been using to store my cats toys! I am a beginner sewist and your tutorial made it so easy for me to accomplish this project!
Oh my gosh, that's a great idea! I'm going to do that too! haha. We just got 2 kittens and toys are everywhere :) Why didn't I think of this earlier?! Thanks for the idea :) Dana
Just made mine... didn’t use felt though, used a wadding instead and my handles are made with the fabric as well. Also I made a decorative stitch on the top of the bin, it looks lovely... a pity we cannot post pictures in here... thank you...
Your material is so adorable! I love its uniqueness. Great directions, too. I can always count on a professional look with homemade items that come from you.
just made one without the felt (didn't have any but wanted to try it) definitely would be better with the felt. not sure if my machine could go through all that material though.... will pick some up and try though.... thanks for sharing this and making it so easy to follow
Ive made a bin, and love it. But I was thinking that sometimes (depending on what you want to put into it), you want VERY stiff, upright sides. My idea: plastic canvas, cut to size, and put between outer and lining just after you nest the lining into the outer. Then sew around the edges. For the bottom you could cut plastic canvas to size, cover it in fabric, and lay it in the bottom of the bin. This alone might help the sides be more upright (or lay it in the bottom of the outer just before you put in the lining). I had a custom tote bag from eBay that had that. I’m going to try it. Gotta get plastic canvas first!
Sure sounds great! In the XL bin, in the pattern, we recommend dropping in some extra reinforcements like you're talking about. shop.madeeveryday.com/products/hold-it-bin
Oh you're sew adorable. Heehee. Seriously, I watch so many videos but I'm easily bored or irritated with the human. You make this painless for this cranky woman and I appreciate you.
Hi Dana, we just moved and I’ll need bins for everything! I have used many of your videos to make projects. Now that I have my sewing machine out of storage I’ll be super busy making bins and draw string bags to start organizing my life again!! Thanks for your awesome ideas ;) =^..^= Cath in Connecticut
I love your videos! I’ve made several items- even some with my granddaughters. I wish you had added a minute or two showing lid construction. I know it’s basically the same, but I’m a visual learner and it would have helped me
First. You look so beautiful. God bless you. Second.. Thanks a lot I was thinking of making some boxes for my daughters and your tutorial came on time..
Hi, Dana! I just have to say I love your fabrics! I just nabbed a bunch from Fat Quarter Shop -- I shouldn't have, but I did -- hahaha! They're so fresh and modern -- thank you! Going to make some bins to hold diapers and baby room things!
i am so excited and nervous to try this pattern... thank you for the great video. I know I will have it playing and paused during each step just to keep me on track
Thank you for these instructions. I have some fabrics leftover from mask making including a pokemon fabric. I can use these to make fabric organizers!!! ❤️
Nice fun and easy project. When topstitching the top edge, take off the free arm extension (accessories box) and then you can sew with the right side facing up and the bulk of the box under the free arm.
Dana these bins are just as adorable as you are 😙😙. Thanks for the great tutorial. I have recently started sewing since a year and these are just wonderful to make and gift. Your fabrics are beautiful. Just a bit apprehensive of procuring the interfacing. Don't get so many different types here in India. Thanks again. Hoping to see more from you.
What a fun project! I do not have Decor Bond so I used fusible fleece instead. I didn't have any felt either, but my bin came out pretty good... maybe a little less structured than the one on the video, but it suits my needs.
Love toot videos!! They're so easy to understand. I'm teaching myself to sew from RUclips alone. Yours are my favorite. I'd love to see how to add a button hole.
😍Awesome bin Dana!😍 I love how easy this comes together. I use this drop-in lining technique on most all of my tote bags and purses. Thanks for sharing this bin. Will definitely be making some for me and some for gifts. So nice to put a gift in a bin for giving. It’s like giving an extra gift. Love your channel. Hugs! 💝
I have literally learned everything I know from your videos. I have a very hard time learning new things. When I first got my sewing machine last year I knew absolutely nothing. I went through everyone's RUclips channel and yours was the easiest for me to understand. Thank you for your videos!
I love that you explain what interfacing is for us newbs. Most people just take for granted that everyone knows the terms and lingo.
awesome! Yes, I love when the basics are spelled out. I had to google "Fat Quarter" when I first started sewing :) . So many things to still learn!
Thanks for this! I'm an experience sewer and just needed a refresher, but WOW! A youtuber that is prepped and ready with steps already done ahead and not doing it all in real time?!

aw shucks! :) Best comment of the day. Thanks Jen! You make me want to keep making videos! Dana
Yes, please keep making videos!
You make sewing so easy! Whenever I am trying something new I go straight to your channel to see if you've done a video on it.

Haha. Thanks Amelia! Hi back at you, from Texas :) Dana

This work is amazing.
Your tutorial is one of the best.

This is the best tutorial I have watched. My liner always is too large and this is a simple way to remedy that! Thanks❤
This is so cute! Going to have to make a few. When ever I’m ‘top stitching’ and there are two different color of fabrics, I always change my bobbin thread and/or needle thread to match my fabric.

OMG Dana I am obsessed with your new fabric collection
Your a mom a fabric designer what can you not do is the real Question ?

Thank you for the great pattern, I bought it and am so happy to see you have included an easy formula to make any size bin, very handy.
Awesome! Have fun making bins!
Nice fun and easy project. When topstitching the top edge, take off the free arm extension (accessories box) and then you can sew with the right side facing up and the bulk of the box under the free arm.
yes! Excellent tip!
I love this! I'm about to make a fabric bin for our winter hats and gloves to put in a cubby we have close to the door, so we can grab and go.
Love these bins and they are so easy to put together.
Thank you Dana, for making videos that helps newbies, like myself in creating great projects.
Keep them coming😀😀😊😉

Dana these bins are just as adorable as you are 😙😙. Thanks for the great tutorial. I have recently started sewing since a year and these are just wonderful to make and gift. Your fabrics are beautiful. Just a bit apprehensive of procuring the interfacing. Don't get so many different types here in India.
Thanks again. Hoping to see more from you.
Aw thanks Angelyn! :) If you can't find that exact kind of interfacing in India, try out what's available and see how it works. Have fun sewing! Dana
What a fun project! I do not have Decor Bond so I used fusible fleece instead. I didn't have any felt either, but my bin came out pretty good... maybe a little less structured than the one on the video, but it suits my needs.
Oh good! Thanks for sharing that with us! I'm glad it still worked out well! Have fun sewing more :) - Dana
