Lamia Bag Pattern

Say hello to the radiant Lamia bag! Lamia is a feminine (Arabic) given name meaning radient or shining. 💫 Just like its name suggests, this bag is a true shining star. Its design? Simple yet timeless, with a light quilted finish that you'll totally adore. And guess what? It's not just one, but TWO zipper closures for each compartment! 🤩 And the adjustable strap with my new, self-made decorative slider is pure genius (if I do say so myself). Plus, it's fully lined and even comes with up to 4 inside pockets! Practicality meets style? Yes, please! 🙌



The pattern comes in 2 different sizes. The smaller measuring approximately 7 inches in width, 5.25 inches in height, and 2 inches in depth (or 17.5 x 13 x 5 cm), is perfect for those who prefer a compact, chic accessory for their essentials. On the other hand, the larger option, with dimensions of 9 inches wide, 7.25 inches high, and 2 inches deep (or 23 x 18.5 x 5 cm), provides a bit more space while maintaining a sleek profile. Additionally, the Lamia bag can be crafted without a strap, transforming it into a stylish pouch that seamlessly fits into any fashion-forward wardrobe.

Say hello to your new BFF! This bag is a fashion chameleon – it can be a classy handbag, a cool crossbody, or even a trendy bum bag! And guess what? It's got this new snazzy, no-fuss construction that's quicker than a TikTok dance and uses ritzy rivets or chic Chicago screws! Cool, right? 🎉
