In this sew-with-me, I’m making the Oblong Luxe Carry All Tote and taking you along for the real-time process—cutting, assembling, and working through the steps the way I actually sew at home. This is one of those practical builds where details matter, so I focus on keeping things clean, structured, and functional while still making it cute. If you like project-style videos where you can sew right alongside me (and not just see the “perfect” highlight reel), you’re in the right place. Even though this video is all about the tote, it’s also about how I plan my makes, where I shop for tools and supplies, and how I stay organized with patterns and ideas. I share the links I use most—my Amazon storefront for sewing essentials, my newsletter so you can keep up with what I’m working on, and my shop if you want to check out what I’m designing. If you’ve been wanting a carry-all bag that looks luxe but still feels doable, this project is a solid one to try.
