The Journey Bag pattern
This is the perfect slimline crossbody bag to carry just the essentials, including a specially designed padded pocket for your tablet or e-reader.
The Journey Bag is a fun slimline crossbody bag that has a special front pocket for your cell phone and a padded pocket on the back for any iPad, tablet, or electronic reader. An adjustable strap means you can carry it on the shoulder or as a crossbody bag.
The diagonal pockets make it easy to grab out what you need, when you want it, while also adding an interesting design. The neat trim on the top of the pockets can be sewn in a matching or a contrast fabric, to add to the design.
The Journey Bag is a slightly larger crossbody bag than the Izzy Bag by the same designer and with some additional features that might be perfect for you. The designer says – if you fell in love with the Izzy Bag, you’ll be in 7th heaven with this crossbody purse.
The front has three outside pockets including one for your cell phone. The back has a large padded pocket for a tablet or iPad
