PRINTING PREPARATION & IMPORTANT INFO
• Open pattern with the latest version of Adobe Reader or Foxit PDF Viewer. Print
the pattern at “Actual Size” or 100% scale.” Use grayscale printing to save on
ink. Even though this is in US Letter it can be printed on A4 paper without issue.
• Before cutting, ensure that the test squares are the appropriate sizes.
• If you prefer, you can view layers (if included within this pdf - not all of my
patterns have layers) within the pdf pattern pieces and print accordingly.
• Cut all pattern pieces along the solid black lines and the dashed tape tabs.
• Tape the appropriate cut pattern pieces together, matching the half circles to
create whole circles. See below for an example.
• The writing on the pattern pieces is the direction that your fabric should be, if
using directional fabric.
• Before cutting your fabric and fusing interfacing, I recommend pre-shrinking your
fabric by steaming your fabric using the steam function on your iron. This will
ensure that your fabric won’t shrink when fusing interfacing and stabilizers.
• When cutting woven interfacing, I recommend cutting an extra ¼” (6mm) on each
side to allow for shrinkage. Attach this rough-cut woven interfacing to your
fabric and press well. This is called block fusing and helps ensure your fabric/
interfacing won’t shrink after cutting.
• Seam allowance is ⅜” (1cm) unless otherwise stated. Basting is done at ⅛” (3mm).
Topstitch with a longer stitch length and ⅛” (3mm) from seams.

Below is an example of how the pattern pieces should get taped together, for those that
have more than one piece. Match the half circles to create whole circles and tape

e
together.

BAG PREPARATION

FUSING INTERFACING

Fuse woven interfacing to ALL pieces, except the Zipper Tab and optional Strap
Connector using the “block fuse”method as mentioned in the PREPARATION step on
page 3.

ZIPPER PREP

If you are using a store bought zipper, trim just under the top metal stop to remove it
and you’ll treat it like zipper by the yard now. Hand stitch or sew the coils together with
a zig zag stitch (to close the top of the zipper together and keep the pull on).

The zipper needs to have the top portion turned at a 90° angle. This can be done by
marking with a non-permanent line straight across the top of the zipper, about ⅝”
(1.6cm) from the zipper pull when zipped, or the top cut edge of continuous zipper
tape.

7 Needle & Anchor

Supply Co .
Pinch this line and fold perpendicular to the zipper teeth creating a 90° angle and pin.
Repeat for the other edge of the zipper. To hold in place, stitch both folded edges,
parallel to the zipper edge.

Trim off any excess zipper from the folded 90° angled edge.

Trim the zipper from the bottom to get the appropriate length. Your prepped zipper
should be 3¼” (8.2cm) for Small, 4¼” (10.8cm) for Smallish/Medium, 5¼” (13.2cm) for
Medium and 7¼” (18.3cm) for Large.

SMALL ZIPPER • 3¼" (8.2cm)

SMALLISH/MEDIUM ZIPPER • 4¼" (10.8cm)

MEDIUM ZIPPER • 5¼" (13.2cm)

LARGE ZIPPER • 7¼" (18.3cm)

8 Needle & Anchor

Supply Co .
ZIPPER TAB

Mark down the center of the Zipper Tab, which will be ¾” (2cm). Fold each edge to the
center line and press. (I like to use a school glue stick on one side to keep it folded
down.) Place non-glued edge of the Zipper Tab right side down and flush with the end
of the zipper (right side up) and sew with a ¼” (6mm) seam allowance.

Fold the Zipper Tab down and wrap it around the end of the zipper. The bottom part of
the Zipper Tab will be slightly larger to ensure it is caught in the topstitching.

Topstitch the tab ⅛” (3mm) from the zipper. Trim any excess Zipper Tab fabric from the
sides to make it the same width as the zipper.

OPTIONAL STRAP CONNECTOR

Mark down the center of the Strap Connector, which will be ½” (1.2cm).

Fold each edge to the center line and press. (I like to use a school glue stick to keep it
folded down.)

Topstitch each long side.

Fold Strap Connector in half and put the D-ring on. Measure ⅝” (1.6cm) from the
hardware and trim off the excess, baste the raw end to keep the D-ring on. Set aside for
now.

⅝”

EXTERIOR AND LINING

PIECING THE EXTERIOR

Place an Exterior “A” (exterior fabric) and Exterior “B” (contrast fabric) right sides
together. Sew the long edge together with a ⅜” (1cm) seam allowance. Repeat to piece
the other Exterior "A" and Exterior "B" together.

Press the seams open and topstitch on each side of the seams. These will now be
referred to as the Exterior.

Mark the back of your pieces with an arrow so you know which way is up.

10 Needle & Anchor

Supply Co .
ATTACHING THE ZIPPER

Take one Exterior and place it face up. Make a mark (within the seam allowance) on the
left side ½” (1.2cm) from the edge. Make another mark (within the seam allowance) on
the right side ⅝” (1.6cm) from the edge.

Place the top of the zipper (wrong side up) on the left hand marking. The tab at the
bottom of the zipper should line up with the right hand marking. Baste the zipper to the
Exterior.
½” ⅝”

Place the basted Exterior/zipper (wrong side up) on top of a Lining (right side up) and
sew with a ¼” (6mm) seam allowance. *TIP* Sewing it on the same side as it’s basted,
keeps the Lining from stretching. (Layers are offset and semi-transparent in diagram to
show detail.)

11 Needle & Anchor

Supply Co .
Topstitch ONLY through the Exterior and zipper seam allowance (this will prevent
dented corners on the ends of the zipper). The zipper will not get caught on the Lining
but if you’d prefer, place DST between the Lining and Zipper.

Repeat to attach the remaining Exterior and Lining to the other edge of the zipper but
reverse the markings on the remaining Exterior. Make a mark (within the seam
allowance) on the left side ⅝” (1.6cm) from the edge. Make another mark (within the
seam allowance) on the right side ½” (1.2cm) from the edge.

Mark a line on the bottom of the Linings 1” (2.5cm) and fold to the line.
⅝” ½”

12 Needle & Anchor

Supply Co .
ATTACHING OPTIONAL STRAP CONNECTOR

If adding and optional Strap Connector place it ½” (1.2cm) down (on the zipper top
side) from the Exterior/Lining/zipper seam. Baste in place.

FINISHING THE BAG

SEWING THE SIDES

OPEN THE ZIPPER!!! Place the right sides of the Exterior together and the Lining right
sides together. Starting on the Exterior side, sew the long side edge with a ⅜” (1cm)
seam allowance. After going past the zipper area increase the seam allowance to ½”
(1.2cm). Repeat for the other side starting with the Exterior side.

BOTH THE EXTERIOR AND LINING BOTTOMS SHOULD BE OPEN.

DO NOT SEW THE BOTTOMS YET!
THIS IS WHERE THE BAG TAKES ON A PYRAMID SHAPE.

13 Needle & Anchor

Supply Co .
SEWING THE BOTTOMS

Place the side seams of the Exterior together (it will be perpendicular to the zipper).
Sew with a ⅜” (1cm) seam allowance. Trim the seam allowance and corners, if you
prefer.

Place the side seams of the Lining together (also perpendicular to the zipper) and only
sew about ½” (1.2cm) in on each side with a ⅛” (3mm) seam allowance. Be sure to
backstitch at the beginning and end.

BOTTOM EDGE OF LINING / EXTERIOR

SIDE SEAM
SIDE SEAM

BOTTOM EDGE OF LINING / EXTERIOR

Turn the bag right side out and gently poke the corners out by the zipper ends. Press.

Pull the Lining out and close the turning hole with a small stitch length and seam
allowance. Push the Lining back into the bag and press well.

14 Needle & Anchor

Supply Co .
OPTIONAL WRISTLET STRAP

Draw a line down the center length of the Wristlet Strap.

Use a school glue stick or DST and fold each side (except 1½” (3.8cm) on each end) to
the center line (leaving a slight gap so when you fold again it doesn’t bunch) and press.

Place the swivel clip on the Wristlet strap before folding the ends. Sew the short edges
together. Fold the seamed edges to the center like the rest of the strap.

1½” 1½”

Fold again and use a glue stick or DST to hold together. Topstitch the whole loop,
moving the swivel clip out of the way.

15 Needle & Anchor

Supply Co .
Place the seam about ½” (1.2cm) above the swivel clip and topstitch or rivet across the
Wristlet Strap, as close to the hardware as possible.
