Tanglewood Bag Sewing Pattern

$6.00

product options:

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.
