This month on YouTube!

We've covered a LOT at the start of 2022! Big bags, little bags.... tiny bags. It's a great start to the year with tons of fun options!

The New Stuff:

More...

Sewing notions from Lauren's shop are ALWAYS such a treat!

Basic necessities! The BEST waterproof canvas and so much fun webbing! Webbing is great for bag straps.

I finally broke down and purchased a "real" computer chair... and it's ADORABLE! Check out these chairs here.Use code OKLAROOTS for a sweet discount. 

This mix of Mario and poker chips from Mojo Sews has me SO excited to make some game bags! Maybe a poker bag? Is that a thing?

Oh yea... the most epic crossover ever! I do love some haunted mansion and muppets! And check out the whimsical fabric! 

If you're looking for unique and just SUPER fun fabric, make sure to check out the Freaking Fabulous Fabric Club! If you use code oklaroots, you'll have a good chance of making it off the waitlist soon!

Look. At. Those. COLORS! Oh my word, this is making my Lisa Frank loving heart happy! Sew Majestic has some incredibly unique bag making hardware, that will also go with every project. 

Ok I have a thousand ideas of how I'm going to use these amazing materials from Sew Girlie Fun . And did you see those ZIPPER TAPES? Blowing my mind!

Have you seen OklaRoots' new favorite item? The 1" x 6" rulers are such a fun accessory, and a personal favorite notion in my sewing room. Make sure to keep an eye on ShopOklaroots for new colors and options!

I’ve seen this great hack ALL over the place onlin I’ve seen this great hack ALL over the place online. And as a bag charm lover, I fully recommend adding small d-rings to bags. Just be sure to add it to the right place to avoid a future rip ❤️.

We’ll try to do a live on YouTube later this week 🤞

We loved visiting these fabric stores while on our We loved visiting these fabric stores while on our summer UK trip!

Started at Misan (@misanretail ) in London, which had some of the most gorgeous apparel fabric! They had all things pretty, sparkly and unique. They also had a great selection of tweeds and leathers (which I stocked up on).

Next we visited Borovick Fabrics (@borovickfabricslondon ) and snagged even more material! Make sure to explore the entire space for some really stunning and original fabrics. 

Of course we had to stop by MacCulloch and Wallis (@maccullochw ) and check out all the haberdashery! They had plenty of material and sewing tools, but also tons of yarn and other craft supplies. Mila did quite a bit of shopping here.

Then we ventured to Edinburgh Castle (@edinburghcastle ) and actually found a large assortment of tweed materials in a gift shop! I’m still kicking myself for not purchasing anything. 

We wrapped up our fabric shop tour at Edinburgh Fabrics (@edinburghfabrics ) which not only offered all the materials you would come to expect, but they also had a huge selection of tweed AND Liberty of London lawns! The dream!!

Can’t wait to go back and find even more stores!

Block 2 is done! Love that we’re starting to work Block 2 is done! Love that we’re starting to work on some diagonal cuts now.

Those triangle bits used to be such a struggle for me. Knowing how to line it up so it completely covers the area can be challenging. My method is to draw the diagonal line on the fabric, just as I want the stitches to be in the end. Then flip it upside down and line it up with the stitch line on the paper. And bam! Perfect fit with less waste 💪❤️.

I’m not here to tell you what you need and don’t n I’m not here to tell you what you need and don’t need in life. But as a bag maker, I would say the AnnaBelle Shoulder Bag pattern from @siahswagbags is a Bag Making 101 essential. The shape is gorgeous, you can have lots of fun with modifications, and the look of this bag can be SO different depending on the material. The structure is fantastic (LOVE the foam sandwich method) and overall it’s a fun way to spend time sewing. 10/10 no notes!

Enjoy!
This week we’re busting scraps in the CUTEST way! This week we’re busting scraps in the CUTEST way!

The Ellie Card Case from @missfrecklesdesign is a beautiful accessory that has four card slots and a center pocket. This is a great project for quilt cotton! And there is NO HARDWARE 🙏

Check out Miss Freckles on Instagram to see her reel walking you through the process, or go visit the OklaRoots YouTube Channel for a yappy tutorial. 

Have a great week friends ❤️

The Walt Crossbody from @minnieinthemountains is absolutely adorable and I love the two size options. I’m also so grateful to Jen for sharing with us how to make the ears and the bow. I’ll be using that on future bags!

Have fun with this one!
