You can learn how to create the perfect, custom accessory, from hobos and shoulder bags to clutches and totes, in less time than it would take to shop for one (and at only a fraction of the price)!

I have been looking for some good bag patterns. These look easier to sew and cooler than anything I've come across so far.

Thanks!

I loved the brown knit bag. It's comfy-cozy looking, yet still fashionable.

I love the bag right above this. It is simple yet creative, and really chique. I would definitly buy it. And for the one above it, it is sweet and cheerful, but not overduing the floral print.
