I love the quilt on the wall behind you

Thank you! It was so useful to see some of the tricky steps and then also that you talked about some do's and don't's. I've had this pattern for awhile but haven't made it yet so this was very useful :).

Great video. I've gave up on one of Annie's bags; but going to try this one with your help.

[jenniferandres]

Thank you for this. I've been looking at the directions thinking oh no. Now I think I'll give it a try.

Great tutorial . Are re you using a # 5 zipper & if not what size? Thanks

[allyson]

Thank you for your video! Do you sell the set of templates that are already cut to size for the clam ups?

[jowhight]

That was such a helpful video..thank you so much

[kristy]

Thankyou for you lovely instructions………

[angelafaulk]

Can you do this with using just one zipper pull instead of the double? I assume it wouldn't matter but I'm new to bag making.

[dabbylynn]

Which foot are you sewing with and length of the stitching

Annie definitely cornered the market it is very sad she refusing doing a full tutorial for her own product, beginners like me have to watch dozens of videos to piece a true tutorial.Thank you for your video and shame on Annie not creating better videos for beginners

Great tutorial. Can I. ask… what foot is that on your Janome? I like the look of that and have see people use them on Bernina machines. I have a Janome but not that foot. Thanks!
