This little bag holds a lot! Perfect for a hike or trip to an amusement park, it can be worn as a hip bag (fanny pack) or as a sling bag. Instructions include a short video clip from the designer on how to make it into a crossbody bag as well! Straps can be made to size so it is a perfect bag for any age or gender.
This pattern is suitable for either domestic or industrial machines, and all types of fabrics. You just need to be mindful of what your machine can handle and keep any interfacing out of the seam allowances. My testers made everything from quilting cotton to waterproof canvas to leather and sequins for a cool 80's vibe. Have some fun making this one!
Finished dimensions are 7" H x 9" W x 2.5" D.
The exterior has a slip pocket on the back for secure, but easy access to up to a large smartphone. I have an iPhone Pro Max and it fits well. The flap can be secured with a magnetic snap or turn lock so you can feature some beautiful or fun hardware. The interior includes a zippered divider pocket and card slots on the side of two roomy pockets so you can separate your keys from your sunglasses. What?! No keyminder, Kristin?! Don't worry, I got you covered there too! I created another pattern for a removeable keyminder specifically for this bag to keep the bulk down in the seams. It's free with the purchase of this pattern and any other paid pattern on this site! Bonus! It's also a pretty cute bracelet or key strap when you run out with just your keys. ;) Already included in the downloadable files.
There is a video tutorial available for this pattern if you prefer visual instruction. Michelle Graham from mgrahamsews walks you through every step. You will still need to purchase the pattern here to get measurements, etc. as she will never refer to them in the videos.
You are going to have fun making this one. It is a very quick sew and would be great to sew and sell at markets. Please share your Cottage Hip Bag with us when you are done on your favorite sewing groups! #cottagehipbag
