You can make this modern hobo-style handbag – The September Blue – using a fat quarter bundle. The use of pieced panels allows you to show off coordinating prints at their best.
For a professional finish, a twist/turn lock is used for the closure. The bag also has a nice long shoulder strap, so it can be worn cross-body if you wish. The finished size of the bag is approximately 10 1/4” by 13 3/8”.
The yardage is based on 44” fabric width and 35.5” Vilene interfacing width. If you decide to use 20” width interfacing, like Pellon, you’ll need double the amount stated.
