Ok, so i'm trying to make the small treat bags and for the life of me can't seem to get the bottom to work out right. It is step 7 on the instructions but I must be sewing the seam wrong as my bag doesn't sit right. OMG, something so simple is yet so difficult!! Thank you in advance!!

Try ironing a crease in the sides of the bag. Center the crease in the triangle before sewing across... IF this is the pattern I am looking at :wink: :D:D:D

It took me a long time and lots of googling for me to figure it out the first time.

Try these sites:

If you are a visual learner this is great:

Good luck.

Great! I am so glad! I know the first tote I made had very sketchy directions and I spent a lot of time googling to find someplace that could help me....almost gave up on the tote, but luckily, one of the sites I found finally helped the directions click.

Don't forget a pic of your bags. :)
