This is such a clear and easy pattern with very professional results!! Great for a special present to hold a bottle!!! I have made a few in different fabrics and love them and have added a gift tag to the handle. A fun project which I thoroughly recommend.

This was a nice, straight forward, relatively simple design and the directions were great!
Easy to follow directions!! Bag turned out super cute!! 💕

Very easy for beginners. I am obsessed with making these now. I can't stop!!!
The pattern is great! I’m in the process of making it, everything is cut and ready to sew. I’ve used the pattern for the inside pocket on the charm tote and it turned out perfect!
