Watch as Jo shows you how to make the Lomexa Handbag.
The standard pattern includes two exterior zip pockets and a slouchy structure. Additional instructions are included for removing the exterior pockets and creating a more structured look. The interior of the bag features 4 slip pockets and a zipper pocket with 12 card slots. The pattern has the option for lots of hardware including strap end caps, rivets, bag feet and a crossbody strap. However, if you want to make a simple version, the only essential piece of hardware is the O-rings for those funky feature handles.

Four interior slip pockets
For the “feature” fabric I recommend a colourful cotton fabric. If using something heavier, such as cork, vinyl or leather, just omit the woven interfacing.
For the lining fabric I recommend quilting cotton or waterproof canvas. If using waterproof canvas, omit the interfacing.
