THE BEST 1/2 yard TOTE! Quick, Easy Sewing Fun for EVERYONE :)

Thanks. It turned out well, but you need more explanation for beginners.

The inside pocket. What is this way? Fold long side or short side?

Hi, I really want to make this bag but cannot find cutting instructions. have looked on your website for cutting instructions but cannot seem to access these.

So so beautiful and I love the detailed explanation...mine turned out as beautiful as yours ...thank you ❤️

Do you have one like this with a zipper or any suggestions for being able to close the top so nothing falls out? I put a small flap on the top for my one grandaughter but I’d like to make one for my other granddaughter that’s closed on the top. Thanks!🙏🏼

Thank you. Great instructions ❤

So beautiful to watch
I’m trying it

This is really descriptive.
Thank you for this tutorial
I'll make this once I get the time and fabric

What fabric did you used? Thank you! Btw, I like how you explain everything step by step.

I’m going to try to make it

I am going to try it. It looks easy to do. Rene Johnson

Thank you for your tutorial. I have been trying to find a vid on how to do the pockets and you showed it perfectly! Thank you 🙏 again.

Very nice and easy. I wondered tho why you did iron the fusible piece to the fabric? Thanks

so cool! thank you!

If you topstitch the top, it will help reinforce the handle area and make it more sturdy.

This is so cute, pls what’s the name of the fabric u used.

If you put your glue about an inch in from the edges you won't gum up your needle!

.. Buongiorno.. La borsa è bellissima! Chiedo una cortesia.. È possibile avere le misure in cm, in italiano? Grazie

I have lightweight fusible interfacing. Can I use it

I just found your channel today. Very easy tutorial! Thank you! :-) New subbie.

right now I am looking for the perfect computer bag and this would be awsome if you added a zipper to the top and extra batting to thicken the bag.

Hi. This is great for me as a beginner. I will try it today foe sure. Thank you so much!

I want to make a child’s version for my neighbours four year old daughter each at size uk you recommend ?

Excellent! Best bag method I’ve seen so far 😊

Here’s my two bags I made for Bible’s how do you share pictures???

Wow I really love this tutorial, love the hand measurement too thanks!! I might add a magnetic snap !!! Thank You

Gorgeous! I love the fabric you chose. I would like to add the extra step of making the corners so that the bag will have a little depth, I've already seen it in another video, but overall your instructions are very clear and the bag looks great!

Can you use decor bond fusible on this bag?💗💗

Fun, fast, and easy thanks to Virginia's help. Very clear instruction and depiction. Thanks Ginger Cake

How can I make this bigger? What measurements do I use? I’m a beginner. I have no clue. Lol

Thank you so much for this tutorial, Virginia! I made one today. I didn't have the right kind of interfacing so I used a thin pelon batting. (Never again!) I made the same mistake as you with the inside pocket! Can't wait to make more! Thanks again for the awesome video! (Oh, I also included a little strap inside to hold a small water bottle vertical.)

Can’t stop making these totes!

Loved this. Thankd

Loved your explanation!! Realy quick and easy! Thanks

I love this tote pattern and you made the directions easy to follow. Thank you so very much for sharing. It was so much fun making it. I used the lining fabric to make the straps. My first try didn't come out perfect but I will be making several more for friends and family. (I realized that I should have made the seams a little wider). I have included a few photos. The second one shows the lining and inside pocket.

I made this and it turned out adorable

I've made tote bags from several patterns but your method is the easiest, yet with more, ie the pockets. Fabulous and thankyou! Just one thought, maybe check if the inner pocket will hold a mobile phone? Just love your "blue houses" fabric. 😊

Extraordinary

Get fusible!

Thanks for the quick and easy tutorial. I'm teaching a few kids how to sew and wanted a quick bag pattern that would give them nice clean results they could be proud of and this hit the mark just right. I simplified it down to just the basic bag with no pockets - this is only their second project after all - and they were able to sew them start to finish in about an hour and a half. Of course I made one myself and it came together in 15 minutes but it took 30 years to get that fast ;)

I used to love sewing with my Grandmother when I was younger and have just recently gotten back into it. Thank you for making these easy to follow and simple beginner tutorials! It does wonders for boosting confidence when starting out! So I appreciate it!

What are the measurements of the tote?

Used fat quarters and it looks so beautiful! Picture posted in Pinterest.

I am nesadee .A sri lankan little girl.I watched your vedios. Thank you very much.

Why not use an iron-on stabilizer?

thank you Virginia easy peasy, love it
