I made this crossbody bag in a size that suits me best for everyday use and I thought it might suit you too.

I make a lot of bags out of denim cut from whole pairs of jeans, so I end up with large amounts of scraps and leftovers that lend themselves to patching together to make something new, fabulous and creative.

It zips open along the top to reveal a roomy interior, has a zipped pocket on the inside back wall and a small patch pocket on the inside front wall. The back wall of the bag features the back pocket of a pair of jean which is another useful feature. It is lined with checked fabric cut from a men's shirt.

The bag hardware is silver coloured and the zip is dark blue. The long adjustable strap is made from jean waistbands opened up and turned outwards. You see all the daggy, shaggy bits.

Size: 28cm across x 25cm high. Approximately 7cm across the base front to back and flattening to close at the top zip.
