Hello sewing friends. I've added a little "quilty" flare to my Penelope bag and turned it into a PDF pattern to share. Introducing the Quilty Penelope Bag.
About the Quilty Penelope Bag Pattern
The Quilty Penelope bag is a simple handbag with a magnetic snap closure. It has a Variable star quilt block built into the side panels, giving it a pop of color and a cute way to show off your love of quilting. The star panel is great for using up some of your scraps or for playing around with your new favorite fabrics. When making this, you can also substitute an 8”, or larger, orphan block to the center panel for a completely different look.
The Quilty Penelope Bag is perfect for carrying all your essentials, plus a few extras. It’s small enough that it won’t weigh down your shoulder, but roomy enough to hold what you need.
There are pockets on the inside and a simple magnetic snap closure. The comfortable fabric strap stays on your shoulder and easily slips on with one hand.
This pattern is now available in the Etsy shop so click the button below. And as always, if you make one I'd love to see it!
Happy Sewing!
