Description

The Wendy Crossbody Bag - 2 days

The Wendy Crossbody bag is a cute, zipped bag in 2 sizes, utilising webbing for the detachable strap. It has a zipped pocket on the outside and optional pockets inside. The same pattern can be used to make a bag orientated either vertically or horizontally, so there are plenty of options for variations. Use the smaller size as a handy dog walking bag, or the larger as a practical handbag. If you find binding internal seams on a zip topped bag fiddly and unsatisfactory, this pattern has an alternative method which you may find easier!

Suitable for adventurous beginners/intermediate sewists: Although not a complex bag, this style does require some fiddly stitching around corners. You should be able to confidently thread and use your sewing machine, change and use a zipper foot.

10am to 3pm each day. £155 including tasty lunch, fresh coffee and home baking. Materials Cost: £14 covers zips, interfacing, interlining, strap hardware, pattern and written instructions. You will also have access to the online Stitch a long Facebook group.
