Definitely on my to-do list for Christmas presents for my married and grown kids! I always love to see your fabric choices, you have some beautiful fabric and combinations I would not have thought of. Love your channel!
That’s awesome! I always consider all the ways to make something. Then I pick the easiest with the best end result. I didn’t want it to be to bulky or have raw edges, which is why I did it this way. But everyone should always make things how they think is the best way, that’s the beauty of making things yourself 🤗
I just found you while searching for a Potato Bag pattern. You do a wonderful job explaining the steps. I have to admit, I have watched twice so far, just to listen to you talk! LOVE your accent! I also subscribed to your channel and I went to ETSY to order the PDF as well! Thanks!
Hello Stacey, I just stumbled across your tutorial. I really like the way you explain step by step on this video. I also subscribed to your channel to get notifications on all your post 🥰. Thank you for sharing your tutorials with us all 😊.
Thank you so much Nancy! I'm thrilled to hear that you found my video helpful and that my instructions were clear. They are the perfect gift for your hair and nail stylists, just a little thoughtful handmade something 😊
Oh heck yes. I've come into some scraps that I needed to use up; this will be perfect. I'm going to make a bunch then offer them to the local Food Not Bombs to give away when they give away bags of potatoes. Thank you!
Hi Brittany, that sounds like an amazing reason to make and giveaway these potato bags! Thanks for watching and taking the time to leave a comment, it's much appreciated! 😊
Love these tutorials. What settings do you use on your brother machine when you use your quarter inch foot as I am having difficulty getting mine correct?
Hi Margaret, so I find that the needle just needs to shift over to right just slightly. On my machine that is adjusting the zig zag. As I press the button I can see the needle moving over. It doesn’t stitch a zig zag because the stitch setting is a straight stitch. I hope that makes sense.
I am glad you agreed it was important, I was worried I said it too many times. That is terrible you had one catch of fire, that must have been scary! Let's hope I have helped saved others from that.
So I made one of these and I made sure everything was 100% cotton, the thread, the fabric, and I used the wrap n zap. I put a potato in it to test it out and unfortunately it did start to catch fire in the microwave. Any idea why?
@staceyleecreative I used 100% cotton coats and clark machine quilting thread and no metallics. I did also put some fabric, just the fabric itself, in the microwave that is also supposed to be 100% cotton, just out of curiosity and it did the same thing. Weird.
I always hear that everything must be 100% cotton. However, I have been using socks as rice bags for many years that are not 100% cotton with no problem at all. I don't believe it's necessary to use all cotton.
Hi Heather, you should do what you are comfortable with. I wouldn't have been comfortable doing this video without stressing to use 100% cotton. If you scroll through the comments you will see someone commented that they did have one made with polyester thread and it did catch on fire in their microwave. I prefer to be safe than sorry 😊
Made this for my daughter with sunflowers and bees fabric, it turned out great!! Thank you for sharing your talent!!
Wonderful! Thanks for letting me know 😊

I just sent one to my mom in SC. Great video. I did the stiching and then turned it so stitches were on inside. Just a thought.
Thank you, Stacey.

Could u tell me why a potato bag needs to have a fusible lining like wrap and zap does it help with the cooking ? Thank you I,m just curious ❤️
Yes it helps kept the heat in the bag making them more moist. 😊

@@staceyleecreative Thanks Stacey, I will give it a go.
What type and size of needle do you use to make these bags. Great video!
Just a universal one 🤗
Allo stacy. I was wondering how would you sell the potato bag if you would make them for sell. I always have a hard time pricing my items .thank you
Hi Caroline, I would have a look on Etsy and see what other people are charging for them, I’ve seen lots for sale there 🤗
Where do you buy wrap and zap from?
Hi, any craft store: Hobby lobby, Joann
Amazon: amzn.to/3Qcv3sn
Thanks for stressing the 100% cotton. I was given one that didn't have 100% cotton thred and it caught on fire.
I am glad you agreed it was important, I was worried I said it too many times. That is terrible you had one catch of fire, that must have been scary! Let's hope I have helped saved others from that.

Oh no, what thread did you use? Any metallics on the fabric?
@staceyleecreative I used 100% cotton coats and clark machine quilting thread and no metallics. I did also put some fabric, just the fabric itself, in the microwave that is also supposed to be 100% cotton, just out of curiosity and it did the same thing. Weird.
@dcwatashi you know I tried it wirh fabric from joannea and fat quarter shop. Not sure what happened
@@dcwatashi yes
Never ever put an empty microwave item in the microwave it will catch fire.
I always hear that everything must be 100% cotton. However, I have been using socks as rice bags for many years that are not 100% cotton with no problem at all. I don't believe it's necessary to use all cotton.
