This time, we're making "That Cute Purse" (prototype shown below). Scroll down for all the information on how to join us for this sewalong.

This time we're making "That Cute Purse". This sewing pattern is suitable for intermediate bag makers and creates a very cute little crossbody/purse. Scroll to the bottom for the materials list for making this bag.
The sewalong is free to join, but you'll need to purchase the sewing pattern to take part. The pattern will be available to purchase shortly before the sewalong starts, or a printed version is included in the bag makers box if you choose to grab one. This sewalong is different to our previous one as there will be just one long sewing session (approximately 3 hours), and we won't be doing a preparation and cut session. However, if you're part of the sewalong mailing list, we'll send you a reminder a week before to make sure you've got your cutting and preparation scheduled in. Join the sewalong specific mailing list here.
This bag looks great made from cotton, corduroy, faux leather, and a variety of other materials. Whatever fabrics you choose, be sure to pick something that works well with your sewing machine.
If you can't decide on fabrics, why not grab one of our specially curated kits, available here. The kits are available to pre-order and will dispatch between 1st and 24th January so you'll receive it before the sewalong begins.
Sewalong session:
Wednesday 29th January 2025, 3.30pm UK time
