I have officially jumped into the video pond with my first sewing tutorial on how to sew an unlined shopping bag. "Linda" asked me if I had a pattern for something like this and I thought it would be the perfect excuse to learn a little about making a video. So here is the video... and here is the pdf file for the supply list and instructions to accompany the video: Eco Shopping Bag Tutorial . Learning is fun - yea!
That was so helpful Christie - well done on making the video too. Although I'm quite creative I had no idea how a flat base was made on a bag. As my sewing machine still seems to hate me I think we will battle together doing the criss cross on the strap handles (my foot on the pedal seems to have a mind of it's own) - but I will give it a go!

christie, you are such a sweetie pie for making this video for us!!! i really enjoyed watching it.....your instructions are easy to follow, and thanks so much for making a pdf for us too!!! wow! i can't wait to make one of these for my eco-friendly daughter (i'll make one for myself, too, but i must be honest....you caught my attention with the "shopping" part of the title!!!). great job on your first video....i hope you make more! xoxo, :))
Christie WOW!!! Do you deliver. I waited to open your email until I had the time to sew. I am very impressed, honored-and I feel a little famous. You addressed all my requests and made it so simple. I cut out my first bag today. I too will take a leap into the 21st Century and "upload" you a photo to post on your blog if you choose to do so. Thank you very much, Linda
I'm aiming for a bit of inspiration, some how-tos and topics of interest to those who love sewing. I'd love to hear from you with any ideas that fit the spirit of my blog. I'd be happy to include them.

Whoot! Congrats on graduating to video. I'm sure it will be a hit. :)

Oh good! Glad it's going to do the trick...or at least help. Thanks for the idea, Linda :).
Great job! So funny because I just bought some material to make my own bags. Now I don't even have to ponder how to put them together. Thanks!
