Valentina Crossbody Bag PDF Patterns and Instructional Video
This package contains two patterns and a detailed instructional video to help you make a crossbody bag in two different ways: I used different materials and different decorative elements, but the bags are essentially the same.
- The first one is from vegetable tanned leather.
- The second one is from a thin leather lined with leather and shoe stiffener (PITEX).
- First you should cut the longest piece: the shoulder strap.
- For the lined one, you should leave a margin of 0.15-0.2" (4-5 mm) around the pattern line of the lined bag because after lining, you will have to recut on the patterns lines for obtaining a sharp edge.
- If you need our assistance, please contact us on Facebook Group
- You will find a list of materials, hardware and tools in the PDF pattern file. There is also a link to the instructional video.
