Briella Commuter Tote (Work/Multi Purpose) Bag sewing pattern
This is the Briella Commuter Tote (Work/Multi PurposeBag) pdf sewing pattern from the designer RLR Creations Sewing.
Briella is designed to carry all your essentials in a well-organized bag with lots of style.
The designer says while the Briella Tote was designed as a commuter/work bag it’s an ideal all purpose bag. It makes a great teacher bag, school bag, leisure bag, or travel bag. In the office or on the go shopping, you can use it as a small baby bag and so much more.
You can grab your Briella and go with two top handles or carry on your shoulder with the adjustable carry strap.
