Sedgeford Bag sewing pattern
This is Charlie’s Aunt’s current favorite bag from her collection so far and she has quite a collection of excellent and distinctive patterns. This is the fun sewing pattern for The Sedgeford Bag. The simple clean lines of this design are reminiscent of the styles of the 1940s but with a modern asymmetrical twist, in the designer’s signature style.
It’s the perfect size to house all of the essentials for a day at the office, or out and about in the town or country. It is made with two contrasting fabrics and is suited to anything from tweeds paired with corduroy or velvet for autumn/winter to heavy cotton canvas or patterned linen for spring/summer. The flap template doubles as an interior patch pocket, of which you can add one, or two.
