Sew Liberated Bohemian Carpet Bag Paper Pattern $29.95
The duffel takes a backseat to the spacious Bohemian Carpet Bag. The Carpet Bag features a very roomy interior perfect for carrying clothing and personal items for a weekend away. Its sturdy construction and useful details, such as the interior key fob and exterior zippered phone pocket, make it a traveling workhorse.
What's more, it is exceptionally easy to make.
The tubular purse frame makes the simple construction look deceptively complicated, plus it is convenient, allowing the bag to stay open while you pack.
The pattern includes instructions, assembly diagrams, and full-size pattern pieces.
