The front of my 7 little purses – in rainbow colors.
The smallest one!
Can you remove the bed of your sewing machine to get a free arm ? It’s a big help when you have to stitch in the round – like the hem of a sleeve or when you have to attach the lining to a bag.
I use the free arm all the time when I stitch my bags- no matter the size of the bag.
But what if the piece is too small to fit to the arm, like the one below ?
Stitch it this way – I hope the picture is clear and speaks more than 1000 words.
You have to remove the pins as you sew so that you can easily rotate the piece under the needle. A narrow sewing foot is helpful too, but I don’t have one.
Have a great sewing day,
are these nesting bags? what are you planning to do with them?
Oh my goodness they are amazing and the rainbow of colour is so sweet!! love them. And the pictures were great and very clear and no problem to understand!!
Geta te quedaron geniales!!!! Gracias por las explicaciones. Un beso
Try your zipper foot sometimes when I want a small narrow foot I use my zipper foot… Usually 1/4 inch seam allowance accuracy is not quite so important in this little things!
Geta. Love the pictures! I'm now going to pull out the bag pattern I bought from you a few months ago, since it makes sense now! I can't believe you use those HUGE pins for such little pieces. Those ball head pins get in the way and I abandoned them years ago. I only use the ultra fine silk pins in everything I sew. I can't wait to see these little bags finished. I am confident they will be beautiful!
I have noticed you are a rainbow-holic from long time ago! That's nice, is a wonderful palette. The bags are great, but what is the smallest supposed to be for? Perhaps a doll tote bag? Or a coin purse. Anyway, is beautiful!
These are going to be so cute. Is this your Danielle bag pattern? I am thinking about buying the pattern. Would you please tell me which colors of these bags are the three sizes in the patterns?
