Momexa Crossbody Bag sewing pattern (with video)
This is the Momexa Crossbody Bag sewing pattern (with video).
This funky little crossbody features unique O-ring details on the exterior with the option to add a tassel and exterior zip pocket. Inside it features a neat, fitted lining with a simple zipper pocket.
This little bag comes together quickly and is a great size to carry your daily essentials.
The Momexa is a cousin of the Lomexa. Not only is it smaller, but it has a few additional changes to the construction, the base, and the pockets. This is a quicker, simplified version of the Lomexa and is great for those who prefer a smaller bag.
