Gorgeous barrel-shaped handbag with vintage styling. Just right to add a pop of style and colour to your wardrobe.

The main body of this bag has been cut from a piece of multicoloured woven fabric found as a whole piece in my favourite op shop. The front contrast panel is bright magenta fabric cut from a cushion cover and it features a pair of rich dark blue vintage buttons on the flap.

It is lined with white sheeting fabric dotted with multicoloured spots. The flap closes with a magnetic snap and it has an internal double slip pocket.

It has fused interfacing inside of it which makes it semi-structured - it stands without collapsing but is still relatively soft and is very light to carry. This is such a great size for an everyday bag, and is very easy to use.

Size: 22cm across top and bottom, widening to 30cm across the middle. 26cm high, and approximately 10cm deep front to back at the bottom. The long adjustable strap can be extended to whatever length makes it most comfortable for you - you can wear it on one shoulder or as a crossbody bag.

This bag was made using The Bawdsey Bag pattern, designed by Emma Brennan for Charlie’s Aunt patterns.
