Zoe Handbag pattern

This is the Zoe Handbag tote bag sewing pattern and it’s absolutely perfect for an advanced beginner sewer to make this lovely Tote Bag or beautiful everyday Purse.

We like the classic simplicity of this easy to sew bag. Yes it still has all the space you need inside and out. The four large outside pockets gave you plenty of room to keep things, large and small, immediately to hand. The zipper top closure gives extra security for what’s carried inside and the zipper pocket inside can hold any little bits and pieces.
