Sew Along No 2: The Just SEW Happy Collection-The Mini Project Bag

Sew Along No 2: The “Just Sew Happy" collection - The Mini Project Bag

Welcome back to the blog.

 So if you are joining me on this series of Sew Alongs, this is the place to be. 

This blog post is all about what you need to know for the Mini Project Bag. 

By now you will already know what is needed for this bag. But, for those of you who missed it or would like a reminder, here is the blog post of what you will need to be able to make it.

There is a Sew Along YouTube video for this Sew Along. Click here to watch the video 

The video will start from what I’ve cut out, to prepping your fabric and making the complete finished bag.

I will explain everything I’ve used, as in tool wise within the video too. But if you get stuck, please just ask any questions either by visiting the Facebook group, 

here on blog, on my YouTube channel or via my social media Facebook and Instagram. I'm here to help you out and to make this an amazing sewing experience. 

So here is everything you need to know for the cutting out of the Mini Project Bag.

Main Outer Top cut 2 pieces measuring 10 ¾ inches wide by 7 ¾ inches high. I’m using two of the images from the “Just SEW Happy" Mixed Panel

 but you can use stash fabric for this instead. You will also need to cut 2 pieces of Medium Weight Interfacing using the same measurements.

 Main Outer Base  cut 2 pieces of stash fabric (I’m using cork fabric for my base), measuring 

10 ¾ inches wide by 4 ½ inches high. These two base pieces will need Medium Weight Interfacing cut for both pieces, measuring the same size.

Lining Fabric cut 2 pieces measuring 10 3/4 inches by 11 ½ inches.

Fusible Fleece cut 2 pieces measuring 10 ¼ inches by 11 inches.

Fuse all Interfacing pieces to the wrong side of the corresponding pieces of fabric, following the manufacturer’s instructions.

DO NOT fuse the Fusible Fleece until you are instructed to do so within the video on YouTube.

Thanks ever so much for joining in the fun. Please do show your makes within my Facebook group or tag me within your post on social media.

Happy sewing everyone.
