sewing anything that's not a straight line is the bane of my existence, you actually make it look doable!!

[bjmoor]

Ahhhh, I fell in love with your easy-to-follow video and started right away. I’ve always wanted a bag like this and thought it would be easy for me. However, it took me longer than imagined, and after a week passed I decided it wasn’t you or your great video that made me take so long (it’s still not done but almost) it was me! I’m an 80 year old Nana with much hand arthritis but I’m determined. I am going to enjoy using this bag I made myself! Thank you!!! ❤

[jeannettegory]

So glad you put your information on the pattern. I couldn't remember how to assemble this six months after making my first bags, but I could easily find the tutorial. Thank you.

[joannecava]

We have missed you! I made so many of the items you share by video and they are always a great hit as gifts, etc…..keep them coming! We love your sunny upbeat attitude and it inspires us to make what you show

[tiffanyd]

I just love your videos! While I was pregnant I used your tutorials to make all my own burp cloths, changing pads, and crib sheets💙💙 You always make everything look so easy. Thank you!

I sew three of the straps all the way to about 3 inches from the top. The fourth strap I sew one side to the same 3 inches from the top. I leave the other side open and turn through that larger opening and the just have one side to sew together before sewing the top seam of each strap. Makes it so much easier to turn and also get them all to match. Love this pattern and have made many. Most of mine have pockets inside and out. Thank you!

Thank you, this is a wonderful project for young beginners ( or beginners of any age ). Thank you for not sewing over pins. It literally makes me feel sick when I see people doing it. I have a variety of machines and I'd not want any broken but I sure would hate damage and an expensive repair on my sewing/embroidery combo machines. So many people think it's OK and it really isn't. I'll let you know how my granddaughter goes with her first tote :)

[karenpack]

I made this bag today. I absolutely love it!! Your tutorial was very easy to follow. Enjoy watching you make different things. Glad I found your channel!!

[joeparham]

Cool I have 3 grown daughters and I will have to make each one a bag! Thanks!!

[cathyj.]

I love this bag! I’ve made one for myself and two as gifts. I need one more for myself! The bag is easy to make, but there is a lot of top stitching and turning the bag is not so much fun. Overall it’s worth the effort, because the bag is so dang cute. I added an inside pocket to one of the bags. Thanks Dana!💕

[maryc]

You are a natural born teacher and a breath of fresh air! Thanks for the great tutorials!

[Angie]

Very quick and easy to sew.I will have to start making bags for all my nieces for their birthday and Christmas.

[youngmanmary]

You are just adorable and give confidence to each of us .It really doesn't mater our level .

[kimwatts]

Thank you Dana for a great bag pattern 😀
I have been making lots of shorts and sweatshirts from your patterns since my grandson was small, he is now nine, still making him new shorts every year 🥰
Hope you will be making more new clothes patterns for children 💕

Thank you for making this video. I love love all your videos, very easy to follow and I actually make the stuff. Be encouraged to make more videos and share with us! 🙂

[seaneenwilson]

Thank you so much! Now that I am retired I decided to revisit the crafts my Mom taught me. Your instruction for the reversible tote bag is so friendly and easy to follow. I decided to hand sew it (which means it is not done yet), but I have arrived at the right side out stage - yay! And end up watching the next step in your video before I move on. Thank you for being welcoming and providing great instructions.

[martyhanby]

Thank you so much for the easy-to-follow instructions. I cannot wait to get started sewing. You are a joy to listen I so appreciate you. 😇❤

[potsofjoy]

I made one yesterday with your free pattern. I really enjoyed making this hobo bag. Thank you so much.

[katielove]

So glad you came back! You look GREAT! This is the kind of bag I need to know how to make for someone as a gift.
Thank you for showing how to make it. It's easier to follow your lead than to try to figure out a pattern. HAPPPY DAY!

[SharitCreations]

Thank you ❤ I have wanted a big bag like this. A friend has one for her crochet project she takes on the go. She sewed her own bag. I think this is a good simple easy beginner friendly project. Hopefully this gives me confidence to then later add pockets & zippers to bags.❤
