Description
The Charley Slouchy Bucket Bag is a large tote that is designed without a lining, utilizing french seams and binding to secure any raw edges and to give it extra strength where it counts.
The Charley has two large side pockets that will easily hold a water bottle. Inside the bag is a zipper pocket. The single-layer design allows for additional design accents such as contrasting or coordinating thread and hardware.
This pattern is suitable for a domestic machine and is beginner-friendly.
