You can’t imagine how excited I’ve been watching you all make this project and seeing the results with the photos. I know some have found it challenging and I appreciate that. There are always many ways to make every project, this method was just one of them. We love seeing the fabric collages and collections that everyone uses, especially those of you that have shopped your stash to make without buying (not to mention the repurposing and recycling of fabrics). Thank you all for participating and making this project such fun.

You can still purchase this duffle bag design and watch the video tutorial.

TESTIMONIALS

This is an absolutely amazing project. The embroidery is quick and beautiful. The assembly of this bag takes the majority of time...IMHO. My strong suit is NOT sewing, so this was a real learning experience for me. Some was easy; some was a challenge. Martyn's video accompaniment was worth its weight in gold, diamonds, and everything precious. I struggled, but I prevailed and will proudly use my bag on my upcoming trip.If Sweet Pea is listening...I would absolutely love to see this design in an every-day bag.

The written instructions along with the video were exceptional and I referred to them many times. I'm a very experienced sewer and my daughter couldn't believe I had made her this duffle bag (for Christmas); it was so well made! I loved making this bag so much I'll be making two more for my DIL's for their birthdays this year.

This bag is a very generous size whether you do the 5x7 or 7x7 size, only 1 1/2" difference in length in the two sizes. The 5x7 has 34 blocks and the 7x7 has only 24 blocks. So, if you want to do less hooping and save on stabilizer and less seams, the 7x7 is your best bet. It is an awesome bag when completed and so well worth the work you will put into it. There is a very detailed video on Youtube that makes it very easy to follow.
