Sewing Tutorial: Easy method for boxing a bag bottom

February 23, by Anne Weaver. Leave a Comment

Tutorial: Easy method for boxing a bag bottomWhen I make a bag, boxed bottoms are a must for me.  Usually I open out the corner and line up the side seams before sewing a straight line across.  It works but you have to be careful that your seams are lined up perfectly, otherwise you’re boxed bottom will be off kilter.  Once Upon a Sewing Machine shows an easier method for boxing a bag bottom.  It’s just one extra step before sewing the side seams and BOOM – instant boxed bottom!
