Sydney Crossbody Bag by Swoon with instructional video
Here’s the Sydney Crossbody Bag that we absolutely love here at Sew Modern Bags, as it is made by our favorite designer Swoon Patterns. We shared with you this awesome pattern back in March 2018. However, as a real bonus, the immensely talented Lauren Mormino has created a full-length Youtube video showing you every step of making this wonderful bag. You can see this video at the end of this article and just below the video you can click on the link to the Swoon Patterns website to download the pattern if you don’t already own it (and you should!)
The Sydney Crossbody bag is large and ideal for daily use, giving you the perfect balance of form and function. It features multiple storage options, including two pleated cargo pockets, a large zippered pocket, a back slip pocket, and a zippered pocket inside. A zip-top opening keeps belongings secure and a wide crossbody strap ensures the bag is very comfortable to carry.
