How To Make A Cross Body Bag

Our new favourite bag!

This stylish and functional cross body bag is perfect for when you are nipping to the shops and want to keep everything handy. We have made ours in a chunky corduroy but almost all fabrics would work, as long as they are strong enough to carry the contents of the bag! We would recommend this project for confident beginner to intermediate sewers, the trickiest part is putting in the zip.
