Pattern Description:

The Teardrop Bag is a very versatile bag that can be sewn in sizes Regular or X-Large. This roomy, hobo-style bag can be used for a large handbag or purse (regular size), for the beach, on an overnight trip, to dance class, to the pool, and even a trip to the laundry mat (X-Large version). I designed the X-Large size specifically to fit at least 4 or more beach towels and room for a hat and all the extras. BE PREPARED this bag is massive! Included, are instructions for an optional magnetic closure, internal slip and zipper pockets.

**Instructions for a zipper opening variation for the Regular sized bag, and a bag strap attached with large O-rings have been added as a supplement to this pattern. The new zipper style opening and O-rings make a very stylish bag and together, it's a whole new look! (These are both included in your new pattern.)

This pattern is easy to sew and follow and has very detailed instructions including 70+ clear color pictures for reference. Instructions are now in both imperial and metric. I will teach you everything, every step of the way. You will learn how to insert an internal zipper pocket, slip pockets and a magnetic snap. All of these are optional so you can customize your bag to suit your personal needs. You won't need to enlarge any pattern pieces either; they are all full size and include seam allowances. Super easy!

Finished Size of bags are: (Measurements are approximate)
Regular: Width: 21"(53cm) Length: 17"(43cm) Straps: 16"(41cm)
X-Large: Width: 25"(64cm) Length: 22"(56cm) Straps: 16"(41cm)
