I really love what Ellie said about making things yourself. It does make me realize how much work goes into handmade items, to appreciate them and encourage me to pay more for hand crafted, non manufactured work.
Kim Nguyen true and from the heart and interfacing makes things crisp and professional looking. When we’re all on a budget think of gifts thrunout the year you can make like laundry bags with zippers for those who travel or the makeup shaver bags for men things we don’t often like buying ourselves. Make them personalized with a theme fabric they can like or a color
I don't have a sewing machine and I don't know how to use one but I watched the entire video because her voice was so soothing and it was so passionate
I love how she just goes straight into sewing without any additional prep that isn’t needed, you got a new subscriber!
The leather really does add that little something extra and doesn't look too hard. I've made a bag like that before. Maybe I'll have to give leather accents a try next time. And I'm so glad someone on RUclips got through a sewing project without the use of glue! Beautifully crafted bag.
if its a sewing project, normally i think it would be sew and not glued
@@aidengomes231what was glued?
@@aidengomes231never mind I misread the comment!
Really sharp looking bag! I love her teaching style and approach to sewing quality items that are affordable and doable. I might try scotchguarding the interior canvas.
1st time seeing someone machine sewing standing up
I was browsing through the Internet when I came across your video.
At that time I had no idea what I wanted to do with my life, as a career.
Then, when I saw this video, I found it so easy and doable that I wanted to try it out.
Which I did, and it came out so beautiful and well made.
Long story short, it was the beginning of my business. 2 years later, today, this video took me on a journey that I would never have imagined.
It was the beginning of the many big projects that I have received.
For that, I want to thank you from the bottom of my heart ❤️
This is such a fantastic story! We love hearing how people's passions lead them to exciting and new (even lucrative) adventures!
That’s awesome! What is your business called? I’d love to check it out 😊
This is the best tutorial I have found on this! I love this lady's amazing, giving attitude also!
So well done, clear and concise instructions…not too long or drawn out. Definitely going to make some of these for the special people in my life I think.
Thank you for sharing your thoughts and sewing technique 👍🏼☺️
Beautiful. I think everyone in my family is going to get one ☺️
Love the teaching style.

I love this! Can't wait to make a wash bag for my mam and boyfriend
Ellie you are so AWESOME!
the bag is so beautiful
Nice bag design. I think I'll give it a try. I mostly work with leather so here are a few suggestions from that. For a more finished look on the leather pieces one could use an edging tool to round the edges to give a smoother look and feel to the leather. Rounding the corners on the hanging tab on the body of the bag might also help. Lastly adding additional length and riveting the leather hanging tab so a loop stands out proud from the bag helps one use the hanging tab.
That was so easy n interactive! Thanks for sharing
Amazing project 👍🏻 thankyou for sharing
this makes me want to learn sewing
Its not that hard, Try your best ,

Lovely Bag !!!! So related to your chat about competing with manufactured products. I was gifted at age 12 in 1962 with a very professional sewing machine. Still own that machine & is my still #1 machine to turn to. I now have 3 back up machines to keep it going and use as a semi portable outside in summer. Anyway got my boost into utilitarian sewing with leather, back pack clothes like cordura and coated heavy nylons and light weight coated materials and fabrics and canvas too via in the early 70's Frostline kits arrived. You could make a true down jacket for under 15.00 which was a huge competition at that time for down jackets imported from Europe and just as lovely. Soon was making for others and making own patterns too and at one time in Fort Collins CO you could go to 5 different companies for Down, YKK huge color selection of Zippers, Tandy Leather for hardware like your grommets used here today in your video and heavy snaps too, coated and not coated rip stop and taffeta nylons for jackets. I met my husband now of over 50 years Caving. So of course there were rope pads super thick and tents and sleeping bags as in REAL sleeping bags like you would buy like mummy bags. I still use my down bag my husband made me. He still wears one of his coats I made him. I quickly grew into seeing something and able to make it or better still seeing something I could use or make in my head and making it. One of the last super things I designed and made was a bike trailer case which comes apart and folds up. It is not a bag it's got structured sides and double layered lid that can come off completely and velcro loop all the way around sides and criss crossing the bottom so one can stick in a variety of pockets and pouches and keep say maps or food or light clothing in one specific spot and you can reach from the top layer of the lid down through a second zipper slightly off set to the interior of the case so no need to open part or any of the lid itself from it's secure sides. No wind will blow it off and yet it's only attached by velcro. Hardware and D rings and webbing attach it to the bike trailer frame. Anyway it came out so beautiful and professional and I really just enjoy knowing I still have it so to speak to create something complicated yet simple and so useful while still looking so good. No I'll never make it as a commercial product or even write up a pattern it's too unique and too specific to a not that many style of bike trailes to make that worth while. I like you love to teach. I so appreciate your showing this bag and your adding the leather hardware and pulls and bling at the end. Wonderful share. And though I can no longer compete with imported materials and down and all of that because there is almost a glut on the market I can still enjoy and bring joy to others making something unique or individualized for them. You are precious and may your path forward be so rewarding in all the ways that matter. Your heart and mind too. Love your video it's just so close to home and I needed that today.
Hey! I just visited Tandy Leather in RC, South Dakota and got myself some rivets and grommets for bag making! What timing that this class came up as a suggestion. Great tip on reinforcing stitches at the boxed corner intersections. Checkin' it out for sure.
I’ve seen this on Pinterest well done and a nice gift for guys or any one I can’t wait to try that tool to hammer on the leather. Leather makes it look regal or expensive like a LLBean type 👍
She's cute 😍
😍😍😍😍😍 amazing
that's cool
Using the cutting mat to measure, the waxed canvas and liner are 13.5" x 17" and the zipper is 12".
رائع
Well done
Cool design, but use a bodkin/awl to put holes in fabric, they won't fray and therefore last much longer
Sewing is building with fabric.
Cool
Super Mam very nice
Can a plastic liner be added? What plastic would you recommend?
The links dont seem to work - does anyone have an idea of where to buy the leather materials?
good beg
Does this require an hd machine? My singer ses2000 had a tough time with jeans when it hit the seam and had to hand turn the hand wheel. I have a shoe patcher that sews through very heavy leather like a hot knife through butter but wanted to check if I should try with the singer
Can we make a larger bag with this?
Where can I buy it? Done I mean I don’t know how to use a machine
may I know the type/model of this sewing machine you used?
probably a Juki
Could I use clear vinyl for the lining?
So there are raw edges inside? That is a beautiful bag though!
BeatlesFanSonia it looks like it, but they’re finished off nicely with a zig zag stitch so that it won’t fray!
mam please tell me the size this pouch in inches
Do you need an industrial sewing machine to sew waxed canvas?
36 x42
Where to get materials\
i need those rulers! where can i get them?
Most craft stores but they have them at walmart too ^u^
Can u teach me pls I love ur bags
What is the measurements
Hi I would like to see the instructions, but I could not see them.
Hello! You can find the full course here: www.craftsy.com/class/handmade-travel-kit-bag/
What's that cutter called?
Its a rotary cutter! Theyre awesome and you can get them at walmart and most craft stores. Just be really careful though, theyre extremely sharp and its very easy to slice yourself open
@@CheeseCakeCupcake23 Thank you very much!
@@maryph4255 i'd recommend you to buy Olfa or Fiskars rotary cutters.

Ellie u are wonder🤔
This is not really a sewing tutorial, and it's certainly not a beginner-friendly tutorial. Nice bag, and the ideas expressed are worthwhile. I won't use leather (ethically) but it's a simple clean design. I also love waxed canvas.
Reef Larkin it’s not too detailed or slow to try to get you to buy the pattern
?...
I am indin women......
Your work is very good
would be great if you wouldn't open your mouth though... kinda weird...
Tell me that this is not real leather please
vocallll frrrryyyyyyyyy . so irritating
Nice bag, nice work, but the tattoos made you seam somewhat unprofessional
hopefully that was sarcasm
get with the times Jan, professionals have tattoos
What do tattoos have to do with professionalism?
Jan Holman what are the dimensions of the materials and zipper?
