This pattern is suitable for beginners. The pattern includes step by step photo instructions and tips. For more in-depth tips, watch the video tutorial which is linked on page 2 of the pattern.
For this pattern, you will need a hand press or similar tool that can punch holes, set rivets, and set eyelets/grommets.
We collaborate with the Trimming shop and recommend their Green Machine hand press. Whatever hand press or tool you use, you will also need the "die sets" to punch holes, set rivets, and set eyelets/grommets. Here we have linked the die sets to go with the Green machine:
- 9mm double cap rivet die set
- 10mm eyelet die set
- 2mm hole punch die set
Whatever fabrics you decide to use, make sure they’re suitable for your sewing machine. For domestic machines, it’s usually best to stick with cotton, especially for your first bag.
Immediately after purchase, you will receive the following files:
- PDF file including step by step photo instructions and printable pattern pieces (Letter paper format for those in the USA & Canada, A4 paper for those outside the USA & Canada)- A0 file - for print shop and projector use only
- SVG files - for use with cutting machines such as Cricut or Cameo (not all pattern pieces are included as some are bigger than the mat size limit)

To make this bag you’ll need to use various tools/equipment. You should only use tools that are well maintained and that you are competent at using. I recommend reading and following the safety instructions provided by the manufacturer of each tool. This pattern does not include safety precautions for the use of tools, so you are responsible for the safe use of any tools you use. If in doubt, seek guidance from an experienced professional of the tools you are using or contact the manufacturer directly. You are responsible for ensuring that you have a safe and suitable working environment. The instructions in this pattern are suggestions only and you are responsible for ensuring that you can carry out the suggestions safely without causing injury or harm to yourself or others. You are also responsible for ensuring that your sewing machine and other equipment are capable of carrying out the suggestions. I cannot be held accountable for damage caused because the tools used are unsuitable.
