559 – Full Moon Bag Pattern

Multi-Sized Pattern - Sizes Small, Medium, and Large

Skill Level:  2, Easy

Sew up a variety of multi-functional bags in three convenient sizes with this pattern!  Each narrow depth bag has a top zipper for the main bag pouch, plus two fully-lined outer pockets.  The easy-access "Full Moon" pocket on the bag front is a great for keys.  Make it in a contrast color to reflect your style.  Plus the open pocket on the bag back makes an easy place for small items.  Inside the bag is a secure zipper pocket in the lining (add an extra pocket if desired).  You can make the bag with an adjustable snap-on shoulder strap or with a waist strap -- to make carrying around easy and convenient.  There is also a belt-loop option so you can wear it directly on your belt as an extra pocket. Make with fabric scraps in your stash, make it as a padded bag, or use rugged fabrics for a utility-type bag.
