DIY Sewing Pattern for Crossbody Bag – Pdf Pattern – “Grace O’Malley”- Downloadable

Grace O’Malley was one of the most famous female pirates in Irland. Many Irish see her as a hero. 

The Pattern: You can download and print this pattern with two descriptions. One version with no photos for cheaper printing, and the other with photos that you can look at on your Ipad or computer as you sew the bag. The pattern comes in a separate PDF. The pattern pieces are color coded according to the fabrics you use, and there are labels you cut out to pin to the pieces of fabric you have cut. There is also a material list, telling you what you need of fabrics and hardware to make this bag. There is a cutting list as well, to tell you how many of each pieces you need to cut, and in which fabric.

The Bag: This bag is made with decorative glitter vinyl in strips you can choose and arrange yourself (be creative), and natural cork. Of course you can choose to not have the strips and just add one color instead of the “artwork”. The front has a deep slip pocket with a magnetic snap and the back has a zipper pocket. The adjustable shoulder strap is made with two different materials. The inside has a zipper pocket and a slip pocket divided in two. The gusset makes the bag pretty spacious for its small size.

Specifications:

Height: 9 inches

Width: 12 inches

Depth bottom: 2 inches

If you like, you can watch the video tutorial I made for it as well. That is free for everyone to watch. The video does not give cutting instructions or instructions on how to interface the fabrics.
