Thank you both for sharing. They are gorgeous!! Ok I think I’ll do the directional print. I just need half an hour of quiet (with 2 boys) to work out the cutting. Wish me luck!

Just a follow up as I’ve been hesitant to start. Would I be better using a print with no direction. I’m wondering if that would work better?!?

Thanks Lightening. So if I do it where the side notches are I should be ok?

Hello lovelies,
I hope this makes sense. This is my first messenger bag and I’m using a directional print. To ensure the print is the right way up for the back and the front flap I’m thinking I need to cut the back flap piece into two and sew together.
Does this sound right? Has anyone done this and can give me some tips on where I should do…[Read more]

Thanks Lightning McStitch it never occurred to me to check Spotlight. Do you know if they have the maxi lock? -

Also I know there are a few Aussies here – I found it hard to find wooly nylon. I finally had luck at Tessuti’s online and another site Craft Gate. Hope it’s ok to mention.

Can I ask: I have been reading up on knits and about to start my first top. I too heard the wooly nylon in the bobbin tip, but I bought a new sewing machine last week (Janome 2160DC) and when I mentioned it to the lady there she said it would ruin my machine. If its just in the bobbin surely it would be fine?
