***This is an instant download sewing pattern and not a finished bag. Your pattern will be available as soon as payment is processed.***

+++This is a measure and cut pattern which means that there are NO TEMPLATES to print off and match up- Yay! You need a rotary cutter, ruler and mat and you can cut the pattern pieces straight from the fabric. This is easier than it sounds because the pieces are all simple squares and rectangles.

When you buy this pattern, you have my permission to make this bag to sell- no mass production allowed of course but a few to sell at craft fairs or online, that sort of thing is fine. All I ask is that you credit me as the designer. I wish you all the success in the world with sales!

All measurements are in INCHES.

I don’t know about you but I cannot get enough totes. Totes with zip tops, snap tops, open and foldable. I am guessing that since you have this pattern in your hands that you are feeling a bit the same way. Honestly, there is no end of use for them and this one in particular has a really nice and easy to install top zipper which gives it great security. I am going to use this for an everyday bag although it could be perfect for holding my knitting needles and wool when I start learning to make socks…
