Day 2 Complete! π―π―πͺπͺ‘π§΅πππ
Another 6 hr day to finish our "Get it Gurl" tote bags, pattern by Jordan Porter Handmade. I finished adding the rolled handles to the main panels; added the bottom panels; constructed and added the gusset panels to complete the exterior of the bag. Then on to building the internal pocket panels & "birthing holes" where we will be turning the bags inside out and closing up seams. Assembled the internal part of the bag, connecting the pocket panels to the gusset and added my printed cork tags. Completed the construction by inserting the bag lining and connecting, pulling everything thru, closing up turning holes and top stitching on the cylinder arm machine...and adding hardware. Thanks Lauren from More Me Know for finishing that cylinder arm part for me and hosting us in your AMAZING Studio space! And thanks to Nicole from SewGnar for teaching us 2 amazing projects! πͺππ§΅πͺ‘πΈπΈπ―π―
