Lottie Handbag Sewing Pattern – Cute, Practical & Packed With Pockets + Video Sew-Along!
Looking for a small but mighty bag to sew? Meet Lottie, the deceptively roomy handbag from Woodland Stitches that’s packed with pockets and clever details. This pattern is a straight-line sew, making it faster to put together than you’d expect — and it even comes with a complimentary bonus pouch!
Why We Love the Lottie Handbag
Don’t let her cute size fool you — Lottie is like a little puzzle with a big personality. Here’s what makes this bag a must-sew:
- Pockets galore – an outer zipper pocket, an outer slip pocket, an inside slip pocket and another interior zipper pocket to keep everything organized.
- Straight-line sewing – although there are lots of pieces, they’re mostly squares and rectangles, so construction is straightforward and quick.
- Deceptively roomy – at 11″ x 7″ x 5″ (28cm x 18cm x 12.5cm), it’s the perfect size for everyday essentials without being bulky.
- Complimentary pouch – check the Woodland Stitches website for the free Little Lottie pouch pattern to complete your set.
Finished Size
- 11″ wide x 7″ high x 5″ deep (28cm x 18cm x 12.5cm)
Skill Level
Perfect for adventurous beginners and up — the many pieces look intimidating, but with mostly straight seams and clear instructions, you’ll be amazed at how quickly it comes together. A quilting ruler will come in handy for accurate cuts.
