Learn how to sew the Simple Cross Body Bag

This video course includes step-by-step instruction on making the Simple Cross Body Bag.

This bag is easily customizable - leave the hardware off, change the size, omit the zipper pocket, add a wrist strap instead of cross body, whatever you want! That's the beauty of a simpler-style pattern and sewing. We can do what we want!

Finished size: 12” w x 9” h

Materials:

  • 1/3 yard exterior fabric (like vinyl) to include the strap
  • 1 FQ lining fabric

  • (2) zippers 12” length (we will trim to size)
  • (2) D-rings 3⁄4” width
  • (2) Swivel Hooks 1” width
  • (1) Adjustable buckle 1”width

No interfacing required if using Sew Hungry Hippie vinyl for the exterior.
