Coco by ChrisW Designs

Make It

This project was made from an independent Craftsy designer's pattern:
Coco FREE bag pattern by ChrisW Designs »

Difficulty:

Category: Sewing

Type of item: Accessory

For: Women

Style: Cute, Casual


Materials

medium weight cotton (home dec fabric) and vinyl

What was your inspiration?

I loved the Coco bag pictured with the free pattern. It looked like a purse that's fun to carry.

What are you most proud of?

how professional looking it turned out. looks more like a designer bag than a "homemade" purse.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

trust the instructions and take your time. I used a denim needle and lengthened my stitches a bit, as the layers of fabric get a bit bulky.

Thank you. You really should give it a go, there's something very satisfying about carrying a bag you made yourself!

Thank you, I love it, too. I just started another one. This one will be for my Mom for Mother's Day and has a couple of alterations to the original pattern.
