Introducing The Awesome Oval Bag!

Currently exclusive to Patreon subscribers of Skillbuilder Plus level and above

Patreon subscribers, check your feed! This month's new pattern for Skillbuilder Plus subscribers is a fantastic classic shaped bag, but with the great practical details you've come to expect from a Mrs H pattern!

 

The Awesome Oval Bag from Sewing Patterns by Mrs H made in blue and bronze fabric from Lewis & Irene and faux leather from Emmaline Bags

 

The bag has one exterior seam and one lining seam, a slouchy feel (although you can adjust the stabilisers to suit), an oval base...

A light-skinned young woman with brown hair wears Michelle Graham's Awesome Oval Bag as a crossbody bag, as a shoulder bag, and on her elbow. The bag is made in pale pink and blue patterned faux leather.

 

... and, most importantly for those seeking out the perfect bucket bag - a recessed zip closure!

You can use this pattern as a spring board for many different ideas and techniques....add different hardware, add feet, embroidery, patchwork, change the stabiliser, the world is your oyster with this timeless pattern!

 

As always there is a full step by step sew along tutorial included, and the attached pattern has all of the full size pattern pieces you'll need, including optional rectangle pattern pieces.

 

I hope you love this bag as much as I do...happy sewing!
