Cutting Fabric for Cloth Grocery Bag

Video Transcript

"Hi, I'm Candi Cane Canncel with Expert Village. Now you want to cut out two of your side panels front and your back. For that one I'm going to do is just fold this in half again I'm going to be cutting on the wrong side, make sure I have enough. Then just go ahead and trace it the same way and for this project I'm not going to add seam allowance because we're just going to do a really thin seam allowance. So your bag will be about a 1/4" smaller all the way around than what your pattern is. Once you have that traced you're going to go ahead and cut it out of the fabric. Once you have your front and back cut out then just go ahead and cut out your sides and bottom pieces. Once you done this with your main fabric the next step is to do the same exact thing with your lining fabric then we're also going to be cutting out the pockets."
