Questions About the Sew Spoiled Diaper Bag Epattern!

Hi All,

I have been receiving all kinds of great questions about the Sew Spoiled Diaper Bag Epattern. I wanted to share them with all of you.

Questions?

Where can I find the hardware??

I found a great shop on Etsy called 3D Pattern Paper. They have a wide selection of great purse hardware. The adjustable strap hardware you will need is 2– 1.5” Rings, 1-2” slider and 2-2” swivel hooks.

What kind of interfacing do you recommend?I recommend Pellon craft fuse 809.

Are the pictures clear, so I can see every step? In the Sew Spoiled Diaper Bag Epattern there are over 70 clear beautiful photos! This is so you can see what every step looks like from start to finish. Plus the extra advantage of using Sew Spoiled patterns is that if you have any questions at all you can always email me your question for a quick response.

I have not sewn a zipper pocket before, is this step hard? Again this step is very clear and once you add this skill to your bag of tricks you will want to make every purse with a zipper pocket. Your customers will love it too!! (If you sell them.)

I have not made elastic pockets before, is it hard? This step very clear in the instructions however if you want to practice first an easy elastic practice project is the elastic pocket diaper travel case found here at Sew Spoiled Free.

I use cloth diapers, is this a large bag, so they will fit? Yes! This is a large bag, the finish measurements are 14"H X 4" Wide X 20"L. The great part about this bag is that you can change the width measurement of the bag to fit your needs. The sides and bottom of the bag is one rectangle shape. If you want a wider bag you will make the rectangle wider (for the outer shell and lining) therefore giving you a wider bag.

This does not look like an average diaper bag, do you think it would make a good messenger bag?

Yes! Honestly, the bags I have made from this pattern I did give away to new Mommies! Both loved having something different and new! However, these do not have the traditional diaper bag look and that makes them unique! So make one and use it for your needs!

I hope these answers help! If you have any questions feel free to email your questions to leah.sewspoiled@gmail.com.
