Modern Curves Tote Bag with Free Pattern

Bags· Free Pattern· Purses

13 Jul

I have no idea why but I have been into bags lately. Here is another curvy one I did this weekend. This tutorial is the same as my Oval Messenger Bag. The pattern is similar with the side overlays curving outwards instead of inwards as with the oval bag. I also added a top zipper which is optional. I left the bag without a closure but I think a magnetic snap or Velcro will work.

The fabric used for the main part of the bag is Macrina Busato Handmade found at Fabricworm. I fell in love with this fabric and knew I had to buy some for a small project. Its accented with a polkadot deep blue fabric on the side. I hope you guys enjoy the free pattern.

I decided to use both fabrics on the straps. I love how it turned out.

This was my first time adding a top zipper so it looks kinda sloppy. I hope yours come out better than mine.

Aren’t you just loving this handmade fabric! Look how pretty it looks on the back.
