I purchased the Kathy tote and Frankie pouch for my bundle. I downloaded the patterns but I have not yet had the chance to sew them up. Instructions look easy and I can’t wait to get started.
I love this pattern, and I love the finished product even more. The instructions were clear but there was one step where I did wish there was an accompanying video.
The book is very informative, easy to read and understand, has tables that are easy to use.
Great. Mainly all the information for bag making in one file. I make bags, pouches and such all time so I find it very handy.
I thought your instructions and video were great!
Great job!
This is a super pattern. Easy to follow directions and fast to make. I used some small pieces of leftover fabric for this project. Great to put items in for a gift for someone I’ll or just as a gift. Thank you Amanda for continuing to offer easy to follow, wonderful patterns.
Great pattern, easy to follow! Will purchase more patterns!
Lovely pattern. Can't wait to sew for Christmas quilt.
My first tote bag to make was the Kathy Tote Bag. I love the step by step instructions and detailed photos. Some steps I zipped through and some others I would go back and reread or double check what I was doing with the photos. I loved making this so much that I have several other patterns ready to get started on. Amanda makes her patterns so easy to understand and the added tips are excellent. My only problem is deciding what to make next. Thank you for understanding exactly what I need to be comfortable making a bag!
Haven’t made it yet but definitely looking forward to doing that
Love love love I am very new at sewing and Amanda’s patterns are extremely beginner friendly with a professional end result.
Well thought out pattern and I’m ready to start the new Mae bag!!!
Easy to understand
complete and thorough
The instructions are super easy to follow! This was my first bag and I think I knocked it out of the park!
