43 Quilt It! Fusible Fleece Cork Webbing Hardware 43

44 Portside Travel Set Quilt It! Apply fusible batting to the back of the fabric. Mark your first line on the fabric with your favorite removable marking tool. Set up a seam guide on your presser foot or walking foot. 44

45 Portside Travel Set Quilt It! Topstitch a Swiss cross 45

46 Portside Travel Set Sewing Set-up Sewing on cork was delightful, the material was stable and easy to sew. Non-Stick Open Embroidery Foot #56 made it easy to topstitch 46

47 Portside Travel Set Sewing Set-up Plan your bag exterior details. Webbing can be hard to find, but the right style can make the project come together. The lining can also be a fun place to coordinate or add a pop of surprise. I used the Cotton + Steel cotton for my pocket linings too, folding over my selvedge edge. 47

48 Portside Travel Set Interior Pockets Add a zipper pocket to the interior lining. Make a welt pocket style opening. 48

49 Portside Travel Set Interior Pockets Add the zipper Add the pocket bag 49

50 Elasticator Foot Interior Pockets Adjustable screw 50

51 Elasticator Foot Interior Pockets Attach the Elasticator foot. Set up the stitch thread overlock. Test the tension of the roller by adjusting the screw (1). Place the elastic under the roller and the complete foot sole. Fix the elastic by sewing a few stitches. Place the fabric under the presser foot and sew it together with the elastic. 51

52 Portside Travel Set Interior Pockets Once elastic is added, fold over edge and sew down with a straight stitch on your sewing machine. I started with a large rectangle, that I could cut down to the pocket shape. 52

53 Portside Travel Set Interior Pockets Add elastic pocket to bag ends I used a away 53

54 Portside Travel Set Interior Pockets Using the knit scraps, I cut binding strips to cover the raw edges. The coverage of the zipper foot #4D, worked perfectly for adding the binding to the edge. 54

57 Ramp it Up! Leather Roller Foot #55 Toggle Buttons Leather Leather Cord Glue 57

58 Cascade Duffle Coat Helpful Tools Making toggles was fun. Special leather glue and some washi tape. 58

59 Cascade Duffle Coat Leather Roller Foot #55 Use topstitch or leather needles. Matching thread in a 30wt works great. Practice your stitch length on a scrap, I like 3.5mm. 59
