Tanglewood Bag Sewing Pattern
$6.00
My favorite patchwork bag. It's a little bit hippie, a little bit preppy. It's a little bit country and a little bit Liberty. It's embroidered yokes and dangly earrings. It's blackberry crumble, balmy nights, and piccolo solos. It's picnic quilts spread out, corner-to-corner on the concert lawn. Bring on starlight: You've got the perfet bag for it now, honeygirl.
Fully lined, with a lined interior pocket; closed with a magnetic snap and a toggle button with suede lacing closure.
