If you don’t like bling or a have quirky sense of humor-then this is not the bag for you! This is my minimalist take on the Western style handbag. The Wendy Satchel has a unique top tab closure (bling is optional). The handles attach via O-Rings allowing this bag to be worn comfortably on most shoulders. It is a roomy bag with a top zipper and zipper interior pocket to keep your belongings secure. There is a bit of gluing required in the assembly of this pattern but I promise you’ll have fun doing it. This is a confident beginner to intermediate 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.
