1. For this tutorial you're going to want a leather needle and nylon thread to keep things nice and sturdy.
2. You'll be making lots of marks and measurements on this bag. Be sure that when you're marking panels that will be seen on the exterior you use something that will wash away. Misty is using a chalk marker!
3. Trim your threads as you work so you don't have to worry about them getting caught.
4. You can use pins or clips - you may find clips easier once you get multiple layers together.
5. Just be patient and go slowly. This one can get a little bulky at the machine, but it all comes together beautifully in the end!
