How To Line Up Holes On Square Bags?

[hectron]

Hi all, i have a question. How would i go about lining up holes on a bag thats "square" ? i have a overstitcher tool and wanted to know, before i go about making the stitching marks, if i just do it as normal on the 3 pieces (2 sides and main bag part). In the picture i attached is the bag type im talkin about. If you see, the sides (2) and the main bag part are the only parts there is...so i guess its sort of like a square. thanks in adavanced !

Well if you don't have a stitching groover, use a ruler and a scratch awl to get a grove the correct distance from the edge. Then take your overstitch wheel and line up one point of it right at the very top of the groove you made. If you put the point at the very top of each part of the bag, the overstitch wheel will make sure your holes line up.

Ooooh, ok thanks for the info. i didnt know that the sides would match up to the main bag part because its supposed to be sewn to the sides and the bottom. ya, i thought you had to line it up differently, thanks again !
