By Annie Take a Stand Tote Class. SATX



Here’s your chance to make a beautiful tote for yourself, family, and friends. This is the popular tote created for holding the By Annie “Running with Scissors” tool bag, but this case is also great on its own. It can hold quilt supplies, toys, just anything! This makes it ideal for holding gifts at Christmas time and birthdays! You can choose what size to make since it’s available in 2 sizes. It has 2 large zippered outside pockets and 2 inside mesh pockets (which can be swapped to fabric if desired)
 
You will learn to work with Soft n Stable, zippers and mesh. Tips and tricks will be provided throughout the class with step-by-step instruction for creating the amazing handle strap, placing inside and outside pockets and importantly attaching binding. Instruction for fussy cutting ideas will also be provided. This is a great prequel to “Running with Scissors” class since some techniques are similar and class is also being offered at Sew Special
 
All supplies are available at Sew Special Quilt shop with 15% discount for class supplies!
 
Supplies List: ( PRINTABLE VERISON )

  • Additional 1 FQ for fussy cutting fabric for outside pockets if desired and more fabric coordination options
  •  - Interface option: Soft n Stable or firm interfacing for size chosen OR
I recommend you only use firm interfacing for Quilted Set A Case
Body and Set B ENDS ONLY. Use thin batting or SF101 for Quilted set B
POCKETS (for less bulk). If you have questions, we can discuss in
class.

  •  Handbag zippers for outside case 1 package of zippers by the yard is enough (see back of pattern for any questions) By Annie type is ideal, or any #4.5 or #5 size zippers should work. Long zipper is for closing entire bag, then 2 shorter zippers are for outside pockets.
