You give AMAZING directions!! You speak clearly and concisely. Most are done too slowly and give way to many details that aren’t needed. The camera shows what you’re doing so
that’s all we need. There’s always rewind. If someone
needs basic skills, theres many videos that will help. Hats off to you. Keep up the good work.
Thank you so much Carla! That means alot. What a great way for me to wake up this morning, your comment was the first thing I saw.
@@SewYours you’re entirely welcome. Now I just have to get up the nerve to make the Zip n Grip. Lol.
Take care! Carla
I've watched a ton of videos on how to make a bag similar to this. You are the only one that addresses the difficult step of sewing the side seam that has the zipper pull. I am really struggling with this but your video shows this step close up. Most videos only show them sewing the other side seam that does not have the zipper pull. Thank you for showing the "difficult" side. Best video yet. I'm inspired to try again.
I'm glad it was helpful. Thank you for your feedback
It would be awesome if your husband would make some of the wooden press stands to sell
I love love love this pattern and I love the bag I have just finished making. Thank you. 😊😊
Great video. I just finished my first one and I see many more in my future. 😊
I am so excited to sew this sweet bag up! Thank you Melissa!!
You are so welcome!
Thank you so much for this tutorial. I made my first bag and it came out amazingly well. I could have not done so well without the tutorial. Love the bag and will be making more.
I'm totally impressed with your videos! Thanks again! 🙂
Can’t wait to make this
I am so excited as I was looking for a pattern like this. I just love your fabric choices
Thanks Shari

Melissa you make it look so easy! Thanks for the great video!
You are so welcome!
This will be perfect for my counted cross stitch supplies when I'm on the go

I LOVE the way you do your tutorials! I just purchased the pattern and can't wait to make this.
Thank you so much for the kind feedback!
Oh my goodness!!! These are my favorite bags to make and now I don’t have to do all the computations myself!!
Great design, must give this one a go.
Such a cute sew. Thank you for the detailed instructions. You do a great job at explaining everything. I can't wait to get home and try my hand at it!
Thank you so much for the feedback.
This tutorial is fantastic! It is so detailed, making it really easy to follow the pattern. Thanks!

Awesome video…can’t wait to make mine!
Beautiful!
Beautiful work Thanks
Great tutorial 👌 Thanks so much
Thank you so much for this great video!!! Now to create. 🎉 yay
Just bought the pattern, can't wait to sew it up. This will be excellent for camping and other vacations! Might have to make one for the husband, too! And my sons, and grandchildren...!
Have fun!
Hi Melissa! You did it again! This is so stink’n cute! I love the versatility of this bag! I already bought the pattern and this is what I’m working on today! I was having a sewing slump and this pattern has ignited my energy to create again! Thanks Melissa!
Yay! Thank you!
Wow, Melissa, I think this is your best tutorial yet! 🤗 I should have watched it before sewing the side seams with the zipper pulls. The lining fabric you used really made your Zip-N-Grip pop! 🎉🎉🎉
Thank you Kathleen!
Thank you so much for this tutorial. It's easy to follow your descriptions even for a german sewing Fan like me. Greetings from germany👋
You’re welcome 😊
Lovely bag, great tutorial 😊
Thanks so much 😊
All I can say is Wow you are so talented to come up with the techniques you created to make this bag ❤
Thank you!
I made one. Very cute bag and fun to make. I was intimidated by the closing up the area near the zipper pull, but my skinny presser foot made it very doable. Next time I'll use two zipper pulls. Thanks for the tutorial.
Je n'ai qu'un seul mot pour cette belle réalisation: BRAVO!!!!👏👏👏👏
Thank you!
I got the pattern and great video thank you
You do such beautiful work
Thank you so much!
This is the cutest..I love it 🥰
Thank you! 🤗
Amazing! Great Bag
Thank you! 😊
You are awesome ❤
So beautiful❤
Thank you! 😊
love the idea, bit it "seams" like this is a much more time intensive project than other similar bags... quilting cotton or not, some of those seams are way too thick, my semi-industrial would def struggle....just makes me want an industrial more and more...thank you for the video!!!!
You're welcome. I have a semi-industrial and I didn't have any issue with the five I made. It's a quick fun sew. The binding provides a "spine" for the bag giving it lots of structure. Feel free to to join our Facebook Group and check out all the Zip-N-Grips customers have been making. Some are on their third and fourth bags. Lots of inspiration! facebook.com/groups/sewyours
Εxcellent video!!!! Thank you!!!
Love this! It looks a lot easier than the method I used to put one of these together. Mine turned ever so slightly skewed because I didn’t understand how to sew the zipper ends to the bottom of the bag. 😅 Your method is so much clearer. Love your pattern.❤
Thanks Becky..
How very ironic! During the holidays, I saw a bag very similar to yours in a promotional ad from a company overseas. I was studying the pictures to try and see if I could come up with my own pattern. But I'm not quite at the pattern making stage, lol. I'm so happy that you made an even better bag than the one I saw. Thank you for another great pattern!
You're welcome Rita, I probably saw the same ad and immediately knew I needed to make a pattern for it.
@@SewYours I'm so happy you did. Keep creating!
Love the look of this bag. I’m wondering what happens to the contents when it’s closed. Does everything from one side dump into the other?
I love this bag and ready to buy it, however would it effect how the bag opens and closes if I hand stitched to center divider to the back to keep things from moving form side to side?
I really love this bag great tutorial. Can you really make this on a domestic machine. I am afraid my Janome MQ200 would struggle with the thicker parts.
You can, many have made it on the domestic. I recommend trying your first on only quilting cotton.
For the 23in zipper tape, is it possible to complete the pattern and connect the two sides with a regular zipper that you can’t detach like you did?
I had the same question - I would like to use a regular zipper instead of zipper tape
Hi Melissa, Where can I purchase that beautiful lining fabric? I love it! Enjoyed the tutorial as well.
I purchased this at Joann Fabrics. I think with i the last 3-6 months. It's one of their keepsake calico prints. The selvage doesn't say anything else on it.
Melissa - I o
put on two zippers this time and it was really hard to get it sewed across. Do you not recommend that?
I have major press base envy! you have a wonderful husband. Can't wait to make this pattern
Thank you so much!
What are the measurements of the finished pouch? Do you have a pattern for any other sizes?
Hi there! You sure have some amazing skill, Great tutorial! Could you please let me know what machines/supplies I need to invest in to do rivets? I saw that you had a little rivet hole punch and a press? Thank you so much.
Thank you. You can find the supplies that I love and recommend in my amazon list: www.amazon.com/shop/sewyours
Much appreciated!
This is amazing! Where can I find those rose gold clips? I don’t see them on your site. Building my starter kit & those are gorgeous!
They are sold on her website. Melissa is in the process of restocking. Check back soon.
Hi Tiffany, we just got all caught up with orders and we do have a very small quantity left. I've just updated the website if you'd like to purchase before they are sold out. I will be reordering more but it may be 6-8 weeks before they arrive. sewyours.com/collections/sewing-notions/products/rose-gold-vinyl-clips
Melissa, I do have a question about your stitches. Your topstitching is so beautifully visible. Mine seem to almost sink into the vinyl or faux leather, even when I lengthen them. Are you using a specific type of thread? Or is it the difference between a domestic and an industrial machine? Thank you.
Rita, I'm using Tex 70 Thread from Siah Swag Bags for my upper thread and Tex 45 Thread in my bobbin since my Juki TL18QVP (Semi-Industrial) can't handle the 70 in the bobbin. siahswagbags.com/collections/threads
Would love to know where to get a marking pen like yours. Thought I saw an info pop up on one of your videos but can’t remember which one , if you could let me know that would be awesome.
For dark vinyl I use moremeknow.com/collections/marking-pens/products/silver-ink-marking-pen-sew-busy-single and for everything else I use amzn.to/48jgvhT
I have three of these. I just wish that the middle pocket was sewn to the bottom. Some of my items that I put on one side end up on the other side.
I wish you would show the assembly of the handles and handle connector using quilting cotton.
I would all a half inch to the length of the handle and then fold in the short raw edges first, then fold the long raw edges as directed in the pattern. This will make sure that your short ends are no long raw. The same process can be repeated for the handle connectors.
In order to keep the zipper pull away from the ends when the last portion of the bag are stitched, would a double zip pull work to avoid that?
No that would make it more difficult
Is there any reason why you couldn’t sew the bottom right sides together, then turn out and top stitch before adding it to the main body in order to avoid the need for binding?
Birthing this bag wouldn't work it doesn't require the binding construction. I am trying to think if a drop in lining construction would work as a hack but I don't even think that would.
Where do you buy the clips
I sell them, but I just sold out today. I'll be placing a new order with my supplier soon so hopefully, I'll have them restocked in about 6 weeks as it takes a bit to have them produced. sewyours.com/collections/sewing-notions/products/rose-gold-vinyl-clips
I am about to start mine but l am very curious if the inner zipper pocket could be larger??? I want to put my brushes in this pocket but right now it is looking too short for it.
You could put the brushes in the center pocket depending on the length of your brushes. You could also modify the pattern and increase it in length by 2"-4".
@@melissamartin9005 ooh great idea! What is the finished sized of the middle? Sorry first time working on something a more complex than what l normally do with quilts.
8.5" wide x 3.25" H
I purchased the pattern and ready to make this. I can not find a pattern piece for the handle and connectors. Can please tell me tell me the dimensions for each? Thanks
Found it on page 25, sorry
19:56 for some reason, im not finding the pattern piece for the slip pocket! Can someone help me out?
Straight-cut measurements are found on the cutting guide on page 25/26.
What is the name of the rivet ruler you used?
It’s the Rivet Pal which you can get on my website www.sewyours.com
Do you have a pattern for a smaller size Zip-N-Grip?
No, I don't.
What size is the handle and the connector the length and width of both
I purchased the pattern but wanted to get the measurements for the handle and connectors
@@margaretmurph3609 The measurements are provided on page 25 of the pattern under the Imperial Cutting Guide.
Does the pattern come as an svg?
No
Are you using a domestic or industrial machine
I use a semi-industrial. Juki TL18QVP I put a link to my machine in the video description. If you're working with a domestic machine I would recommend making your first in all quilting cotton and then determine if you can make your next one with vinyl/cotton.
Dang that zipper at the end is impossible lol 😂 the stapler didn’t work, I can’t move my zipper pull out of the way to save my life.. idk how I will bind it. I don’t have a narrow zipper foot. 😢 I’m not sure if I’ll be able to finish this bag haha 😂 everything else came together good though! Thank you for this pattern it is so very cute!
How about pulling the zipper pull up a little and putting a pin across the zipper teeth? Then sew while the bag is in the "taco" position. That should do it. The last resort would be hand sewing that section if you aren't able to do it.
The pattern pieces say to cut 4 woven interfacing for some of the pieces.....but your video says no interfacing, I am confused by this two different directions
Woven interfacing should be used on all quilting cotton pieces only. Stabilizer is needed for some of the pieces which is noted in the cutting guide and pattern pieces provided for. Follow your cutting guide.
Could someone please point me in the right direction to find out where the zipper pocket/facing instructions are in the pattern. Other than coming on here to watch how it's done I'm stuck.
There is a link embedded in the pattern for the facing/zipper pocket instructions.
Did you find this info? I can't find this on the pattern, what page please?
Since I’m a tester, I may not have the latest pattern, but my link is on page 9.
Where are the pattern piece for the strap and the handles
Hi Suzanne, measurements for these straight cuts have been provided on the cutting guide. You can find this on page 25/26 of the pattern.
@@SewYours Thank you,
