Sometimes you just need a cute little bag to take with you - this no flip bag fits that bill! Lisa will also teach you a handle technique that is NOT included with the pattern instructions. This technique can be applied to all kinds of bags. This is a quick sew that you will definitely make again! This is the perfect bag for kids, or for using during a quick trip to the grocery store to pick up the few items you forgot.
Supplies you will need to bring:
Your sewing kit - pins and/or Wonder clips (Lisa recommends Wonderclips), marking utensils, scissors, etc.
Topstitch 90 needles
Rotary cutter (Rulers are available in the classroom)
Note: Scissors are highly recommended for cutting since most of the pattern pieces are circles.
#10 Edgestitch Foot
All brands make these! This is a requirement for the class as topstitching is upfront and center of finishing you bag.

If you do not have this foot, you will be very disappointed with the result. If you need more reasons to justify the purchase of a foot, please talk to Lisa - this is her ?go-to? foot.
