❤. Wonderful second video!
Glad you enjoyed it!
enjoyed the project bags, beautiful. I also quilt, but I hand sew my binding on so I struggle with the vinyl bags. But agree, keep on trying. I use the iron on interfacing, batting that Elizabeth Ann mentioned in her video.
it quilts well
Thank you for watching! ❤️❤️
Yay for so many subs from your first video!
I think it was the WIP parade, those always seem to draw a crowd. :). Thanks for watching.
Love seeing all your beautiful bags. I have been making my own as well, for exactly the same reasons as you say, difference is that I am very much a novice so they are nowhere near as beautiful as yours!! 😂
Thank you so much! My first bags were not that great and they got better and better the more I made. And I really figured out what style I liked and love that I can make the sizes that I needed. Thanks for watching Judith!
Oh... another Texas. Hi
Thanks for watching, what part of Texas??

Love your project bags, thank you for sharing. Wow do you to hold your floss?
Thanks Jenny!! I’m not sure I understand your question. I like to put Dmc on floss drops, I usually leave the fancy floss on the card it comes with because I’m too lazy to write the name on a floss drop, then shove it all in one of my small notions bags when I’m not using them. I also bought some keychain rings from Amazon to hold all the floss for each project together.
@@molliemcmaker So you use floss drops, I was just wondering how you hold your floss. Thank you. I look forward to your next Flosstube ❤️
Love your bags! I also make my own and experimenting with what to use for the floss beds. I noticed you make your floss drops to match your project. I like doing that as well. What brand of laminate do you use?and puncher for the holes? I go through so many of the punchers as the laminate is too thick. Thank you☺
I bought some laminate from Amazon a while back, it was a loooong time ago. I use a single hand hole punch that I stole from my mom, I remember using it when I was an adolescent so it’s old but still works.
You’ve been busy! It was lovely to meet you and hope our paths cross again. Your bags are fabulous. Such pretty fabrics!
Thank you so much!!
Congrats on another great video! What gauge vinyl do you use? I’m pretty sure they cut the wrong gauge for me last time so now I’m really paranoid about which gauge to buy next time
I think it is 16 gauge, it’s the one with the yellow paper. I think I also bought one with the pink paper before too. I usually just feel it in the store, there is one that is super thin, I don’t use that one.
What is the name of your light you showed? Love your video!
Thank you! It’s a daylight company foldi go.
@@molliemcmaker Thank you so much!! I have been looking for a small travel light!
Ok, so what sewing machine do you use? My family took me to a dealer and I told them that I wanted to make bags (for myself and some friends only) and finish some at home projects like fixing clothes and making curtains etc. They put me in a Janome machine that made it through 3 Vinyl front bag before we started having problems. After many many trips to the dealer for troubleshooting, the Janome Tech (who was phoned in) told me that they put me in the wrong machine… I’m so mad. They won’t give me a full refund so I can get the correct machine. It’s a mess. So, I’m trying to see what machine people use who make bags similar to my style.
I have a Janome MC7700 that I bought 12 ish years ago (maybe? I don't really remember how long) and it works pretty well, I do have some trouble sometimes getting through many layers, but I also use my walking foot when sewing bags and that is super helpful, If your machine has a walking foot try that if you haven't already, or consider getting one if your machine doesn't have one if it is something you can add on. If I were to get a new machine, I would probably consider something like the Juki TL2010Q, but this only does straight stitch and nothing else, I know a lot of people who have these and love them.
