Customer Reviews
This bag is just perfect! I made the medium size for my daughter to use for the gym. The instructions as always are so clear and concise. It’s the first time I’ve done piping in years and the instructions meant it turned out brilliantly first time! There are so many pockets, I can’t wait to make another for myself 😀
Top projet j'en suis à mon 2eme sac (un grand et un moyen) je prends beaucoup de plaisir à les faire. La vidéo est indispensable pour certains points. Très fière du résultat :-)
I have made this bag for my daughter for Christmas last year. The pattern was detailed and easy to follow. I also viewed the video on youtube which is also very helpful.
I learned all sorts of new techniques and got over my fear of zippers! Between the video and instructions, I had no problems putting it together. Thank you
Turned out very nice - EXCEPT - when I went to so in the end of the bag the end seem to be much too big for the opening… So What I ended up doing was putting a few gathers at the bottom… I reviewed the video and in the video it looks like the ends of the bag fit perfectly and we’re not too big for the end… I did see somebody else post that they had the same issue… Other than that it was a very good bag
Great classic shape. Easy to follow.
As a beginner sewist, I was initially intimidated by the pattern and length of the instructions. But the YouTube video walked me through it brilliantly. And I was shocked at how perfect it came out. So many little tips and explanations made it a joy to make. Thank you Ellie and Mac. I won’t hesitate in the least to order another pattern.
Great pattern
