Get ready to learn lots of cool things you can do with your serger while making this crossbody bag. There is a small amount of stitching with a sewing machine, but 99% is created with a serger. Final Dimensions are 9 1/2in x 10 1/2in. While making this project you’re going to gain many skills and discover exciting techniques you can achieve by using your serger, such as:
- Install 4.5mm – 5.0mm nylon coil zipper along top
- 2-Thread Flatlock wide decorative stitching on front and clever back pocket detail
- Discover best practices on working with cork material
