Gemma Mini Bag Pattern PDF + DXF +Video Tutorial
Customer Reviews
Muy bonito bolso y fácil de realizar. Gracias
I made the Emma bag from very soft dark brown kangaroo leather, with pig leather liner in brown. Handles and strap out of veg tan dyed in antique saddle tan. The construction was fairly straight forward, but the handle and strap attachment system was difficult, however it was overcome. I suggest widening the layout of the handle attachment in the pattern to allow the leather fold over to completely cover the inside of the handle, for appearances sake. I fixed the issue was sewing small thread tacks to the leather to bring the sides together more closely. See photo 4. I finished up with a very nice bag, one of many that I have made with Vasile and Pavel's range.David Sim
Excellent pattern as always. Easy to follow video great help in completing bag
Getting my hands dirty with my first bag with this Gemma mini bag pattern! I’ve learned a few things through carefully watching the tutorial video and so far it’s been great! Fun and not too complex, can’t wait to show off this project!
Pattern is very easy to follow. I have cut out the pattern and I’m currently in the process of putting it together. Would definitely recommend purchasing patterns from V&P
