    Good afternoon. Thank you so much for your channel. I do designing, pattern making and sewing. Qualified. My husband passed away and at my age I desperately need to earn extra money as, even though qualified in many, many fields, in our country someone of my color and age is regarded as unemployable. Your wonderful ideas have helped me tremendously, especially when I was requested to make different items for each of my granddaughter's school's classes for each mommy and granny for our Mother's Day. Blessings from South Africa 🌍

    That's so cute. Sometimes, with the fusible fleece, a few rows of quilting will make the bag sturdier. That way, you can still use whatever piece of fabric, without using the more expensive stabilizer. I keep little bits of stabilizer, fleece, and batting. I find a purpose for them all. All my straps have a bit of fleece or batting. It keeps them from crinkling in the wash. I sell my stuff, and I make sure everything is utilitarian. Use it, love it, wash it, and wear it out...in time. 😊

    Another great project I will be adding to my list of sewing projects.
    I had an "Ah Ha" moment in this video! I have so much dark cotton that I'd intended to use for linings until you mentioned in a video some time ago that light fabrics should be used for linings because older eyes can see what's inside better.🤦‍♀️ Now what to do with all my dark cottons? Until today.... use the "wrong"side! Brilliant!
    Great seeing your mum again and so glad to read that she'll be in an upcoming video.
    Thanks for another great video, Christine.
    Hugs from Nevada,
    Cathy❤

    Do you have a suggestion on what fabric to use to have the inside a bit moisturizer resistant? Wet shower stuff.
