The Kismet sewing pattern
The Kismet is a versatile bag that is constructed to wear as a clutch, wristlet, hip bag, shoulder bag or crossbody. Exterior detail includes a diagonal strip which also contains a concealed outside pocket, perfect for your smartphone or dog waste bags when out on a walk.
Opposite side exterior details are pieced sections of coordinating fabric meaning you can sew the bag all in the same fabric and get nice textural details and interesting seam lines (like the ivory version below), or mix and match your favorite fabric scraps for more of a patchwork look (like the green one above.)
The exterior features a cross wide strip to hold the D rings that allow the bag to be converted and worn different ways. This strap slips over your hand to wear it as an easy-to-hold clutch bag, or snap on a wristlet strap at one end, or use the longer narrow crossbody strap attached to both ends. So versatile!
The interior has a lining that accommodates 6 card slots, so no need to carry a wallet.
The largest continuous fabric cut you will need is 7.5″ by 25″ so this can be made from your favorite fabrics in your scraps bin if you want! Maybe a matching wallet/wristlet to go with your larger purse? The options are endless.
