Thank you for this video. May I ask if you could check this out for me if I got it right. Bag 14” wide x 3 deep x 13 wide. Plus 1/4 in seam allowance. Squares corner 1 1/2”. I need to add 1/4 inch where needed. Am I going the right way?
@MarcelasPurse
Ай бұрын
@@fralou1 hello, I am a bit confused about your question, are you asking about allowance for the square corners? 😊 To clarify, once you have decided the size of the sides of your pouch, you will have to add 1/4" seam allowance on all four sides of your pieces of fabric, then you cut the 1 1/2" squares ( you will have already added seam allowance, so you just cut the square in the size you need). You can practice cutting two pieces of paper and fold them to create the shape of your pouch ( folding also the edges for seam allowance) and attach them with sticky tape. I have done that sometimes and found it very useful. If you still have doubts, please message me again. 😊

How do you know what zipper length you need? Does it just need to be longer than your bag's finished width? Also, do you need to adjust the size of the tabs (the part you hold for zipping) if you resize the bag?
@MarcelasPurse
Жыл бұрын
About the zipper: yes, in my case I wanted the width to be 8", so any zipper longer than that would work (about 2" longer), if it is too long, you just cut off the excess when sewing the pieces of fabric together. The reason for a longer zipper is that you do not have the start and the end of the zipper exposed at the end and you give the pouch a better finish, it is also much easier to sew it in place. About the tabs: you can decide how big and long you want them, experiment folding a piece of fabric and pin it to the pouch before actually sewing it to it until you are satisfied with the size. I hope this helps 😊

I love your designs and your tutorials. I would like to make a carry on travel bag following your tutorial on how to change the size of a pouch. The bag has to conform to airplane dimensions which is 22”X14”X9”. I will be using your pattern “Boxy Bag With Handles”. Can I use the instructions from your tutorial to make the bag? If it is possible Then according to your explanation I will have to make the squares 4.5 inches to equal the 9 inch sides. Is that correct? Thank you for sharing your passion and expertise.
@MarcelasPurse
2 жыл бұрын
Yes, you are correct, the squares should be 4.5 inches, so your pieces of fabric should be 31" × 23" ** 4.5" + 22 "+ 4.5" = 31" *** 4.5 "+ 14 "+ 4.5" = 23" PLUS SEAM ALLOWANCE. If you are working with 1/4" allowance, the fabrics should be 31.5" x 23.5". You might want to increase the seam allowance if the fabric frays easily. Happy sewing! I would like to see the finished product 😊
