This month’s @bagmakingbeesclub Bee Box is for the ADORABLE Zuri Crossbody from @bagstockdesigns 😍😍

This cutie has some really clever pockets that allow it to remain functional and keep that beautiful design. It’s a great quick-ish sew and would be a fun project to make with family or at a retreat.

Enjoy!

Comment BAG BOOK and I’ll message you where you can find my book! Coming out April of 2027 😍

Thank you so much @countrymanpress @w.w.norton for allowing me to do this!! It’s the most special moment of my career ❤️

The 2026 Summer Mega Box is here!!!

This box is PACKED with goodies! Tons of material, hardware and notions, as all as all kinds of extra goodies.

The featured pattern for this back is the Andy Backpack from @uhohcreations and this is one of my favorite patterns of all time. This bag is great for schools, college, work, travel, slumber parties… you name it! It has the most clever pockets and that come together in the coolest way. It’s a more intermediate make, but I believe a confident beginner would also enjoy it. Just take your time!

I’ve also included my latest Passport Pouch pattern with this box. You should have an email with the coupon code to snag it completely free, AND the templates are included in the box 🥰.

There are two versions that were available: the bold and the neutral. Both truly live up to their name. The bold is bright and vibrant, with special prints designed by Gabbi at @wondergroundfabrics . The neutral is truly neutral and great for ANYONE.

My video tutorial for the Passport Pouch will be available on July 20th and the tutorial for the Andy Backpack will be out on July 27th.

I hope you love this!!

We’re turning a crossbody into a backpack this week, using a tshirt! Ok, that’s a mouthful. But in today’s add-on tutorial I’m sharing how I twisted and converted the Mila Monster into a backpack, based off inspiration from one of you! All measurements and adjustments are listed in the description of the video.

I hope you enjoy the hack 🥰 Comment MILA and I’ll message you a link to the video ❤️

Posted today: a mini tut!

In the most recent OklaRoots YouTube video I’m showing you how I prepare a tshirt to be used in a bag pattern. It’s simple, straightforward and easy.

I now have a huge bin of tshirts waiting to be made into a bag! Enjoy!
