It's not too late to join the bagmaking fun in June!
A second round of boxes will be ready to dispatch around 17th June, with limited availability. Please note, the yellow lining fabric may be different to that pictured inside the bag.
The June Box is here! Think freshly picked florals, cool shades of green with a splash of honey yellow for the lining. The bag pattern has now been revealed and we are making the Foxtail Crossbody Sling bag by Blue Calla Patterns which is available in both English and French.
This project is rated as confident beginner, so there is the expectation that you are familiar with using a sewing machine - and sewing with zippers would be helpful. There is a full-length video tutorial to guide you through each step of the pattern. If you have sewn bags before, you will find this an easy and relatively quick project to sew, and you'll walk away with a beautiful, stylish bag for the Summer!
