Making a Pocket For a Camera Bag

Video Transcript

"Hi, I'm Candi Cane-Canncel, with Expert Village. So the next step with our camera bag is we're actually going to create a pocket that's going to go on the outside. In this pocket you can use to hold either your manual, if it's small enough, or even a rolled up USB cord, or even if you have extra batteries. Anything you want. But it's just like a little decorative touch, but it's also useful. So the first step is, we're going to go ahead and fold over the top. And we're also going to add some elastic, because that will make it kind of like a pouch pocket. So you just fold it over, take it to the machine and you put your elastic in, and you're just going to stitch it. So go ahead and start stitching. After you stitch a little bit pull your elastic tighter and in this case it's a little hard to sew because you're sewing elastic and vinyl. So you just want to move it along as you're pulling your elastic. Pull it back out of the machine. Trim off any remaining elastic. And now we're ready to stitch up the sides. "
