Here’s a great FREE sewing pattern for the Crafted Crossbody Bag with three different versions, so you can really be as creative as you like. It’s the perfect bag for turning that box of scraps and forgotten fat quarters into something beautiful and useable.

You can use a single piece of fabric for the outer, or color block it or mix and match with a different fabric on each half with a seam down the middle, or really go to town with your scraps and create a patchwork quilted version with all the patterns you love.

The bag uses minimal hardware, has a top zipper closure and an inside zipper pocket, plus an adjustable strap, and darts for shape and volume.
