We didn’t know National Handbag Day was a thing, but now that we know, we’re SO glad it exists. The only appropriate way to celebrate, of course, is to make your own handbag. We’ve got just the thing to help you do it: patterns to sew!

1. Happy Handbag
Showcase a printed fabric you’ve been eager to show off with this purse pattern. Fusible interfacing makes the bag structured and sturdy, and space for an interior pocket and magnetic snap make it practical.

2. The Manhattan Zippered Case
This pattern comes from the instructor of Bluprint class Mix & Match Clutch Bag Techniques, so you can bet it’ll be a great tutorial! The small handbag is perfect for quick trips when you need just a few things.

3. Lyra Handbag
If mixing and matching fabrics is your style, this bag will fit right in your wardrobe. The front pocket lets you put the spotlight on two different fabrics. But the pocket isn’t just for looks — it has a handy twist lock, too.

4. Night Out Purse
Modern, geometric prints in black and white give this bag a look that’s chic enough for any date night. Shorten the strap just a bit and it turns into a handbag that you could carry morning, noon or night.
So is the pattern not free
Found this on Pinterest dating to 2016--but now the links are broken. Maybe it's time to take it down?
This is strange...you show these bags and say "get the free pattern here", but there are no patterns to download!
