- Here's another slightly different version of the shoe bags I've been sewing for several years now.
Thanks to a request by mum, she's found a slightly easier way to finish the lined versions. Here's the link to the video where i've picked up the final folding technique • Beginners: Make Your O... @Create with Rosa Maria

I made many of these, from your first how-to, and lined them for my daughter and her husband to sell at Paintball Tournaments, where they compete, in two sizes. I lined the canvas bags with heavy, waterproof canvas to carry cleats, goggles and other kit. I added an exterior pocket on the back that has a pleated gusset and it both closes with a snap and snaps off completely, for smaller tools and supplies. They sold out immediately! I lined them cutting the liner slightly smaller than the full panel, one piece, and then made the bag as you did originally. I used 1" webbing for the handle. Love these so much! Thank you for sharing this pattern.
That sounds like a fun project Yaya. I'm so pleased they've sold well for you😀
You continue to have the BEST tutorials.
Great bag and technique. Well done Mom for finding and sharing that video with you 😊
Thanks so much Nanci😊
I really like the idea of using the double sided tape. It keeps things in place as you sew. Great project. Thank you so much for sharing. Blessings always. 😊
I love the tape too Anita. Best thing ever😁
Omg!!! Thank you for the wonderful tutorial!!! I have not made many bags and I managed to make it!!! I wish I could show you a pic of mine. 🙂
That's wonderful Alicia. You can share photos on our Facebook group by the same name 😄
Thank you for the easy to follow video. I agree that an unlined bag is often a better option- especially when packing in a suitcase for traveling. Takes up less room, less weight and when not in use - less storage space. I used your original unlined shoe bag video technique to show my girlfriend how to make her own. She was a little tentative about adding a zipper, but with your easy to follow instructions- she was amazed how fast and easy it was. I always learn something new, or a great tip when watching each of your video tutorials- thank you so much for always sharing your talent.
That's so lovely Lynn. I'm so glad your girlfriend overcame the zipper😁
Nicely done Christine , and so lovely of you to give credit to the other RUclipsr who showed you the way . I have made a shoe bag lined but it uses binding to cover the raw edges. I prefer this method and the instructions how to lengthen at 18 - 20 inches and expand or reduce the expansion by 0.5 inch .this will adjust for large men shoes …my nephew would appreciate a bag like this . He is off to college away from home so he can pack away his dress shoes in dorm neatly.
You got me excited now and I am looking for hand made gifts to put in his graduation gift bag .
I got two gifts bags to fill , my husband’s niece and my nephew. I can’t believe how time flies…. I was just holding them in my arms not too long ago … 18 years flew by!
Great teaching video as always ! Tell mum to keep looking for these gems and then tell you about them …LOL . 😊 she’s too sweet !
Thanks Berniece. Mum's certainly given me plenty of ideas. Good luck in your mission for your niece and nephew😁
Hi Christine I am going to try to make this I know some of my friends would like them. You have a bless day ❤
Thank you Niafabu. Happy sewing!😊
Thanks for the video. I liked the idea of the longer handle though. I’ve made a few with the shorter handle and ended up wishing I had a longer handle to grasp.
It's certainly good to have options😁
I have to admit I found that video and tried both methods. I found this one easier and I've made several in this way which have turned out really well. But your instructions are great, as always. Cheers
Thanks so much😁
Thank you Xtine I will try this method 👌even though you method was very clear and easy ❤️👌❤️
You’re very welcome Genevieve😊
Thanks Christine for the hint with the zipper. Great tutorial.
You are so welcome Dianne. Thank you😁
Thanks Christine the tape is so good when putting zips in just finished making your tote bag made a few mistakes but turned out good when I quilted the tote had to use my walking food as the normal foot made it pucker so have a nice day will get a picture up onto your web site soon
Looking forward to seeing your finished bag Pamela😁
Hi Christine! I just finished my first of this new pattern/methodology and it looks awesome. I have made many follow your previous pattern; however, I do like this one much more. If I may, I would recommend folks using a “clover hot ruler.“ when making the pleats. I found it much easier 😊Just a thought. Thanks again for another amazing video tutorial.☺️
Thanks for the tip Catherine. I have a couple of those. Must dig them out😀
Hi Christine loved your previous method and know I will love this one! Thank you for sharing your wonderful sewing videos with us!! 😊🙋♀
You are so welcome Margie. Thank you😁
I really need to get more double sided tape. It's such a great invention. 👍 This is great!
It's one of the best inventions ever!😁
😂Christine , thankyou xx, you managed to find another great idea for Christmas gifts ,always a winner
You’re welcome Patricia. They'll make a great gift 😊
Always like any info for new improvements
Same here Dorothy. Anything to make my job quicker`😁
Thank you! Zips always worry me but your method looks much better to me.
Happy to help Jules. Thank you😁
Thanks for another great video. I really appreciate your business and maths content.
My pleasure Crystal. Thank you😁
What a throwback! The shoe bag looks like one my mother had for her bowling shoes. I like the slightly longer handle you made on the grey bag. Easier to grab. If the fabrics are washable, I don’t think a lining is necessary. But it can make the bag prettier. Thanks Christine! 🇨🇦
My pleasure Barbara. I prefer the unlined ones for my dance shoes, and just wash then when needed😁
Christine - as always, thank you for your tutorials!
I am getting ready to purchase some double sided tape for sewing. I have found even just sewing some zipper pouches, the fabric likes to shift, so I have to square up the pouch before I sew everything closed. So glad you have shared this tip on most of your videos.
This is why I love using it so much. I have more control over the fabric😁
What a neat technique! If I were going to use them for shoes, and wanted it lined, I would use waterproof canvas so it could be wiped off if the shoes were dirty.
Good idea Brandi. I use the unlined version, and wash them every now and then😁
@@ChristinesHomeAffairs After thinking about it. PUL fabric would be less bulky. Like what diaper covers are made from. I am sure it would mostly help with kids shoes. Hopefully adults don't get theirs quite as dirty. But you never know!
Thanks Christine, very easy way of making these. They are great.
Thanks Janet. Easier than my first lined attempt too😁
You are amazing. I love all your instructions.
Thank you Jan😁
Great project for those dirty muddy , wet football boots, thanks Christine,
My pleasure Faye. These have been very popular at footy season😁
Thank you for the thorough tutorial💕
You are so welcome Elizabeth😁
Nice shoe bag.
Thanks Lucille😁
Thank you, yes, clever.
You're welcome! Thank you😁
I love these shoe bags. I did make them a little bigger for my son that travels.
They're certainly a very versatile bag Melanie😁
I really like your designs!
Great job!
Thank you Jan😁
Thanks for the clear instructions. I think I can do this.
You certainly can do this Cynthia. I have complete faith in you😁
Hard to sell anything hand made /home made in the UK . Would want you to hand them for free if it's possible or would come up with nasty comments about your items and prices if you tell them how much time and money you have invested in your crafts . Good luck and thank you for sharing .
Thanks karmina. I've learned just to grin and bear it when people come with negative comments. They're not my target market😁
FYI OFF TOPIC COMMENT! I saw a cute book cover tutorial and thought to myself, Self, wouldn't it be great if there was a one size fits all paperback book bookcover with an expandable or stretchy spine and a closure and handle?! But then Self reminded me that I'm no good at design. So maybe you have an idea or suggestion?
That's a great idea Bonnie. It's giving me something to think about😀
Also interested is a book cover tutorial please
Unlined for shoes is a “best option” if I was asked 😉
Agreed. I use the unlined, and wash them when needed😁
Iam busy with a cosmetic bag the linning is also 1 piece of fabric u just cut it a little bit smaller
Souns like a fun project Nicolette😀
I was unable to tell if there are raw edges showing inside.
No raw edges
There are no raw edges at all😁
I don't think the new version and this one is any easier. It atully seems WAY more complicated. Frankly, I had a hard time understanding the whole thing. The other way was so straight forward and easy to understand.
The unlined version is certainly the easiest😁
Christine, what do they call that finger protector foot attachment? I'm teaching young grandchildren to sew and am thinking one of these would be great if I can get one for my Janome HD9
Palma, I just call it a finger guard for industrial machines😁
Thank you so much for your tutorials! What type of machine do you have please?
Thanks Theresa. I have a Prosew industrial. You'll find the video review in a playlist😁
Do you wash any or all of your donated fabrics? I just received some large decorator fabric rolls that the first yard or more on the outside is dirty and the tops and bottoms are really dirty. Is it worth time and effort to wash and iron this fabric if it is only the outside layer?
Jill, I'd cut off the dirty section and just wash that.
I don't prewash any fabric unless it needs it.
Just out of curiosity, I'd also measure the fabric before washing and drying to see if it shrinks. It's good information for your customers 😀
@@ChristinesHomeAffairs Thank you, I just decided this last week that I wanted to really try sewing to sell. I figure it may take me at least 3-6 months to find what I am actually able to produce affordably and well and create an inventory to start out with. Your videos have been a huge inspiration. Sourcing reasonable priced fabric is the first step.
Ethical sewing. What price do you put on these bags? I have a huge charity project on the go. 😮
Gabrielle, I sell the unlined bags for $20 au each😁
