Well, I finally finished by bow tuck. And it did turn out great! But honestly, I dont think I could have done it without the tute. THANK YOU SOOOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH!!!!!!

Thank you for the picture tutorial. I've had the pattern and materials since July & just started cutting this past week. Got stuck on the pocket--would you believe? Your pictures make it much simpler. I also have the fusible pellon. Do you quilt that?
|
I quilt it if the fabric wants me too. :). I'm one of those silly people who hear it talk to me. My daughter uses hers all the time and no troubles. We handwash in cool water to be safe. If I use basting spray n batting I'd quilt it.

I have a question about the interior pockets, after you mark the 8 1/2" line and match up the raw edges and sew your 1/4" seam, then fold the fabric over, you're supposed to get around 2 1/2" above the pockets. For some reason I'm getting 3 1/2". What am I doing wrong? This is on the small bow tucks bag. Help! Anyone have this problem? What did you do?

Yes, this is the mini bowtucks pattern. How much space do you have above your interior pockets?
|
I don't know about the mini. I am sure someone else will bed around to answer. But You may try measuring from the bottom instead of the top. Just place the top of you pocket where you would like to have it end and use that as a sort of template for a general idea.
