"Hi, I'm Candi Cane Canncel with Expert Village. In this clip I'm going to show you how to take the pattern pieces that you made for your grocery bag and actually trace them out of the fabric we're going to be using. So as I had mentioned I'm going to go ahead and cut my sides and my bottom in one continuous piece. But if you are having using smaller fabric smaller with fabric or also say you don't have a lot of space feel free and cut it out into two separate pieces. You just want to have two sides and then one bottom. So your just going to go ahead and lay this out and I really don't like to pin vinyl because you'll see the holes so what I'm going to do is start one side and try to hold it in as straight as possible. I'm going to trace all the way around it and I'm doing this on the wrong side of the fabric that way it really doesn't matter with your line. Because we're also going to be lining this and with the vinyl you don't have to really be as concerned with the green line as you would say with a woven or a stretch. You do want to keep it as straight as possible but if it's a little bit off its not such a big deal. "
