😍 Maker Stories

Cynthia B.

"I'm so happy with my tote!!! This is going to become my favorite bag. It was a chance for me to try some things that I have wanted to for a very long time...like magnetic snaps and leather rivets and working with waxed canvas. The video resources are excellent!!! These scary techniques are de-mystified now. THANKS!!"

@newcityknits

"I’m very happy with my finished tote and truly enjoyed the process. I felt confident in what I was doing and learned a new skill (the edge stitch presser foot - what a dream!). The pieces came together quickly, and I was impressed with how my interior pocket and zipper expansion turned out!"

@wholalacrafts

"I'm thrilled with how my bag turned out. The process was enjoyable and the pattern is excellent. The time it states is accurate and it's a great project one can finish in a day. Working with waxed canvas can be daunting, but the additional videos, tips, and tricks make it a worry-free project."

Natasha H.

"I am super happy with how it turned out!! I really like the clean lining and the fantastic binding method on the inner zipper. Also, the leather straps make it look way super modern and expensive. I have always wanted to make Klum house bags and I think this is just the beginning of many more projects ahead."

Kathryn S.

"The kit is a game changer- I am not generally a kit buying, preferring to source from my overloaded sewing room. But I am a convert to yours. The professional-level quality products that you provide are top notch. I thought the pattern was very clear, and I referred back to the notes in the beginning regarding the rivets and such."

Love the Oberlin

I have made two of these - one from the full maker kit and one of canvas. Both have turned out beautifully thanks to the excellent videos that give you step by step instructions. I can't believe how quickly they come together!
