Would love to try this bag your patterns are great and the time for instruction and patience is greatly appreciated
**One pattern. Two ways to build it. One detail nobody else thought of.**
The Cooper Crossbody is a compact structured bag with a front pocket borrowed from a wallet design — enlarged and placed on the front panel. Practical, bold, and instantly recognizable.
We made two construction versions so you can choose your approach:
**Classic** — front and back sewn directly onto the gusset. Decorative buckle, magnetic or LOXX closure. Traditional construction, clean result.
**Strip** — a leather strip inserted between the gusset and the panels. Slightly easier to assemble, marginally smaller volume, different silhouette.
Same pattern file. Two completely different bags.
