More Jelly Roll Bags

Just a short post to show some more "jelly roll bags."  By that I mean that the exteriors are entirely made of jelly roll strips (the interiors are made from yardage.)

I made these three items and STILL have more than half the jelly roll bundle.  I don't know how I'll use it all up!

The middle bag is a pattern from Yoan Sewing Studio, the other two I just made up on my own.  

I used odd mismatched leftover strips on this one

BTW, Yoan has tons of cute bag patterns, and some of them are similar to the ones I make myself.  But since she has already done the "work" for me, I enjoy using her patterns once in a while.  And her videos on You Tube are a joy to watch.

This is my new "secret weapon."  My Singer 222 free arm Featherweight.   With a small bag like this, that tiny little free arm is a game changer.  I top stitched around this lickety-split.  

Sewing bag together at final seam - this would be much more difficult on a flat bed or even a free arm with a bigger diameter than the Featherweight. (If you watch Yoan do it in the video, you can see how fiddly it is to do on a flat bed machine.)
