The Squiffy Sling is a great beginner sew. With fun asymmetrical styling but just one pattern piece for outer and lining, it's a quickie! This is a great pattern for showing off your interesting fabrics. Use a solid fabric in a bold color to contrast with your faux leather base overlay, or use a fun design to really make the shape of the bag pop. The pattern includes instructions on using a half moon magnetic snap, creating a fully lined cross body strap and adding both zip and slip pockets. There's also placement markings for using a different fastener on the pattern piece.
The Squiffy Sling pattern can be
made in two sizes. The smaller version is a petite 8" x 9" x 3" and makes a perfect purse for shopping or days out. If
you like to carry a little more in your everyday bag, the larger version
is 10" x 11" x 4".
