This Add-On consists of very detailed sewing instructions. It is not just a simple sewing tutorial, but rather structured like "a real book" or even "screenshots of a video + text", with lots of tips and info. Advanced sewers can just sew by pictures and read up if something is unclear and skip the rest of the pages. Beginners, on the other hand, might miss these pages. So everyone has the chance to sew my patterns. It contains metric measurements that have been additionally converted to inches. Interfacing is listed by Vlieseline and Pellon.
Please note: To work with this add-on you need the Kuoria Ebook/pattern, which is available separately (or as a bundle).
Kuoria Add-On
Difficulty: 3.5 of 5 – Working time: about 4-8 hours
This Add-On shows you step-by-step how to make a "Kuoria" bag with more depth (XL=7.5cm (3") or XXL=10.5cm (4 1/8")) and use it as a toiletry bag, camera bag, college bag or diaper bag, for example. But that's not all! The Kuoria Add-On includes many more extras. It gives you the option to add 3 new pockets in your bag: a simple slip pocket, a large slip pocket in the shape of the Kuoria division, and a zipper pocket with overlay. All new pockets can be used either outside or inside the bag.
A deeper bag will generally be used to carry more, so it requires a stronger strap connector. For this reason, this Add-On gives you three new options to choose from.
If you want to use Kuoria as a camera bag, this is your chance! The Kuoria Add-On includes a camera insert with different dividers, which you can attach where you need them. For example, use the Kuoria in 8" or 10" for a small camera bag, suitable for the body with a small lens and an additional lens (as shown here in the overview). Or use the Kuoria in 17" for all your camera accessories. The insert is designed so that the interior pockets are still accessible. Just put it inside the bag to use it. To the side, there is space in the bag for your smartphone or wallet. Remove it from the bag to use Kuoria as a normal shoulder bag.
You don't have a camera? No problem! Many other uses were found for it in pattern testing, e.g.: in the 8" bag as a toiletry bag, in the 10" bag for an acoustic amplifier, in the 15" or 17" bag as a diaper bag divider, generally as a bag organiser or also in the 8" bag for an outdoor game.
More Extras: small bag feet; choose whether you want to sew the bag with or without binding; pretty strap ends
