Here’s the Aiden Cell Phone Purse pattern, a mini crossbody bag that’s perfect for your cell phone, earbuds, ID, and a few coins, notes and cards. The detachable crossbody strap makes it extra versatile.

We think that this beginner-friendly and scrap-friendly sewing pattern for a crossbody cell phone purse should be on everyone’s must-sew list.

You can wear it with the crossbody strap for a quick run to the store, or detach the strap and slip the whole thing into your pocket or purse. There it keeps your phone safe and can act as a mini-wallet to keep everything together.
