Asymmetrical Messenger Bag PDF Pattern, Leather DIY, Photo Instructions, Video Presentation, Crossbody Bag

Hi and welcome to my shop!

DIGITAL PRODUCT

Advanced beginners project.

• This package contains the PDF pattern, photo and written instructions and a link to a video presentation that will walk you through the process of making an asymmetrical messenger bag lined with leather and shoe stiffener.
• The advantage of lining is that you obtain a sturdy bag that will keep its shape over the years.
• It also allows you to use thinner leather that will ensure the bag is lightweight. This bag weighs 2.2 pounds (1 kg).
• The bag features a removable full leather strap which can be easily adjusted to preferred lengths, and contains an inside sleeve. The crossbody bag can be carried by the handle.
  You will find a list of materials, hardware and tools in the PDF pattern file. There is also a link to the video presentation.
