****THIS IS A PRINTABLE PDF PATTERN AND NOT A COMPLETED BAG. THE PATTERN WILL BE AVAILABLE FOR INSTANT DOWNLOAD AS SOON AS YOUR PAYMENT HAS BEEN PROCESSED.***
+++This is mostly a measure and cut pattern which means that you don’t have many 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. The only exception to this is the small dart template that helps you to get the bottom corner perfect. This is all easier than it sounds because the pieces are all simple squares and rectangles.
This pattern comes with an extra PDF to help you to identify the front pocket pieces. Please note that this is for illustration only and is not to scale. Not all of the components occur in every pattern and it is not specific to this particular pattern. It is only there to help .
I don’t often do evening bags. I find them fussy. However, sometimes we need one to go with an outfit. You cannot turn up to the opera with a hiking rucksack! Apparently. I know that now. So the Soho Wrist Bag was born. You could totally make this one for daytime too but I decided to give it an evening spin because, well, you know, I have kinda neglected that area. It is hands free because that is convenient but it is still well designed with pockets for all of your needs. Take it from evening to daytime by changing the fabric. It is literally that easy!
All measurements are in INCHES.
Pattern Rating: intermediate sewist with some knowledge assumed.
This bag pattern features an external zipper pocket, an internal zipper box pocket and two internal lined slip pockets. There is also a hand drawn (old school I know but this way i know it works) template to help you to fit the gusset properly..
Finished Size: 8 ½” high x 8 ½” wide x 4” deep
Suggested Fabrics: quilting weight cotton, denim, canvas, furnishing fabrics, linen, needle cord
Gather these supplies:
Fabric:
½ yd. canvas or similar for the main outer (you will have some left over but we need more than a FQ)
FQ canvas or similar in a solid colour for the handles, outer trim and facings
½ yd. lining fabric to coordinate with your outer fabric. Always pure cotton. It really gives the best results
Interfacing:
½ yd. style-vil foam interfacing (Vlieseline) or By Annie's Soft & Stable
Fat eighth S320 fusible interfacing (Vlieseline) or Pellon Craft Fuse
Everything Else:
4 ¼” long #5 zipper for the front zipper pocket. I am using a continuous metalized plastic zipper. The oddness of this size which suits the bag perfectly means that continuous zipper gives you the most freedom of choice. You can also shorten a longer zip.
5 ½” plastic #3 zipper to coordinate with the lining for the inner zipper box pocket
Something to decorate the zipper pull of the front pocket. I love a piece of leather or vegan leather but ribbon or baker’s twine looks awesome too. If you are going full on evening and you have some basic jewellery supplies, think about making the zipper pull decorations from beads.
Coordinating threads for all fabrics and trims
Your usual sewing needs including scissors, markers, and extra feet for your sewing machine (zipper foot for example). You know, the usual stuff!
Disclaimer: This is one of my few patterns with a template. I just wanted to let you know up front that it is not what you might be expecting- in the true spirit of old-school designing, the template is precisely HAND drawn. This does not affect its quality or function. It fits together 100% perfectly and a lot of people have bought and made this pattern successfully and beautifully. I love the organic and creative feeling that this gives me. The pattern really is hand made.
Due to the nature of PDF patterns, I cannot offer refunds so please choose carefully. Thank you so much for your understanding.
Thank you so much for buying my pattern. It means the world to me.
