Making the SOLANA Crossbody Bag! Complete Step-by-Step Bagmaking Sewing Tutorial Start to Finish!

Описание: Hello! I'm so excited to show you how to make the Solana Crossbody Bag during this tutorial. The pdf pattern is available for immediate download from my Etsy shop now. It includes two sizes -- small and medium. I'll be making the small size during this tutorial. A materials list if provided below. Additional information regarding using alternate fabrics, inside layers, etc. is provided with the pattern.

Please note -- I am not a fast sewer! Though it looks like I'm zipping through the process at break neck speed, keep in mind that I've increased the speed of most of the video clips 2 - 4 times (in the interest of time). Take your time and proceed at the level you are most comfortable with :)

Also, I'm using my narrow presser foot during the tutorial. It works for both sewing seams and installing zippers. Alternately, you may use your regular presser foot for sewing seams and a zipper foot when installing zippers. Whatever works best for you!

For your convenience, I've listed timestamps at the end of this description so you can easily jump to the step you are working on.
