This large soft hobo bag was created from lots and lots of strips of denim in a kind of balayage style - lighter at the top merging to darker at the bottom. This really was a labour of love, using denim scraps left over from multiple other projects. It is truly a one-of-a-kind, I will never make another one like this ;-)

It is lined with soft blue seersucker striped fabric cut from a men's shirt. The bag has a zip pocket on the back wall and a double slip pocket inside the front wall. It closes with a magnetic snap in a silver colour.

My hobo bags are quite big - about 35 cm x 28 cm, so they hold quite a lot.

The wide comfortable strap is long enough to wear the bag across your body, then it sits on your hip (it is 100cm). Alternatively, you could wear it on one shoulder if you prefer.

I have named this design ‘Sadie Jane’ after a school friend when I was young.
