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.
