This project was made as part of a Craftsy course:
Beginner Serging: Machine Basics & Techniques »

Instructions

Amy is an outstanding teacher/coach, Her smile and enthusiasm makes this course "sing". The easy to follow class and video work is really great!
The bag was so much fun to make and I will find myself making more for the holidays.

Difficulty:

Category: Sewing

Type of item: Functional

For: Boys

Style: Casual, Classic


Materials

Cotton, Fusible fleece, nylon zipper

What was your inspiration?

A gift for my Great Nephew, who is a star at soccer, at the age of 7.

What are you most proud of?

I am more comfortable with my serging techniques and less apprehensive than when I began.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

I am so fortunate to have my i pad next to me at the serger so I could follow along and stop and start the project as Amy progressed through each step. I would recommend to have your serger close at hand.

This serger class is excellent! Amy is an outstanding teacher. I have taken about 15 classes on the Craftsy platform, and some of the instructors are just OK, but I wanted the material. Amy just makes you want to get so excited about threading your machine, w hich can be daunting! Thanks for you r post!

Super cute! I love that you had two fabrics that worked so well together. I'm sure he'll be thrilled. :)

Fabulous - I'm sure he will love it. Where did you get the fabric? My grandson would love it as a football fanatic too.

Thank you! I purchased it on line by going to google and typing in soccer fabric. Then of all the companies that I looked at, I chose the one that I felt would work best and in my price range. This fabric is actually left over from a banner I made for his room at Christmas.
