Sewing: Crossbody Bags

Crossbody Bags

Is this your project? Can you share instructions or a pattern with the Craftsy community?

Difficulty:

Category: Sewing

Type of item: Accessory

For: Women

Style: Eco-Friendly, Funky, Casual


Materials

Cotton, upholstry fabric, scraps that my mom sent me.

What was your inspiration?

I love the convenience of crossbody bags, so I wanted to make a few different ones to switch out. I then got the idea to make them for my friends. My mother had sent me a large box of fabric and this was another way of using it up.

What are you most proud of?

That I made the pattern myself using a yard stick and newspaper.

What advice would you give someone starting this project?

Measuring is very important. Don't be afraid to try different fabrics together and get creative.

I am so excited to make this!!! I did a few crossbody bags, but didn't do the flap! I just had a "why didn't I think of that" moment :)
