The Easy Does It pattern is a perfect way to learn many of the basic techniques used to make ByAnnie patterns.
As you make this useful bag, you will learn how to:
- Quilt fabric with Soft and Stable
- Attach a zipper to Zipper Strips made from quilted fabric (a process used in almost all our travel bags/backpacks)
- Join Zipper Strips to Side Strip and bind edge for a flat finish (used in many of our patterns)
- Join three-dimensional pieces
- Bind raw edges on dimensional bags (including tips for going around corners, joining ends, and finishing binding)
To help you master these techniques, we have not only made the pattern available to you free*, but we have also filmed an Add-On Video for this project to give you a real classroom experience.
