Okay this is my new favorite bag-it’s a little funky and totally fabulous! The Francesca is a fun tote bag and the fringe detail gives it beautiful movement. For best results this bag should be made in faux leather (pleather) though it can also be made in fabric. You’ll need a rotary cutter and cutting mat to make your own matching fringe. This is a roomy bag with an interior zipper pocket to keep your belongings secure. This is a beginner level sewing pattern and has detailed, step-by-step picture instructions. Basically you'll sew along with me!
The PDF pattern and instructions are available for immediate download after purchase. Simply tape your pattern pages together using the dotted guide lines then cut out your pattern pieces.
