More Casual bags!

The Kenzie Cross Sling Bag last week had one of the best receptions on my site! Thank you all for that! Not only that but people have been asking for more casual bags like that than ever! I hope to satisfy those people with my next bag!

Loren Buck Backpack
The Loren Bucket Backpack features a chameleon design that can either express a casual or formal feel depending on the choice of fabric used. In essence, the bag is is on the smaller end of backpacks while still featuring an in depth pocket to allow a sizable storage. It's perfect for those outings when you do not need to carry a laptop or a tablet. I would recommend this as a companion to the gym. I especially paid attention to the design so both men and women can use it interchangeably.

Krista Bag
This week's special though is the Krista Bag! The shoulder bag was designed with leather materials in mind. If you would like to skip the leather material all together and go for a smoother look, you can use interfacing to provide for the shape instead.

More Bags Please!

As I prepared the Blake Backpack last week it became clear to me that the pattern would be a perfect fit for babies and toddlers. In addition to that, we have not released any baby/toddler patterns in a long time so I thought this was a good enough inspiration - or excuse - to convert this into an adorable companion piece for parent and child! I wanted to keep the word "baby" in the title for the product but the pattern is best suited for children that can are already accustomed to walking. Instead, we opted for the Blake Toddler Backpack instead!

Irina Bag
The Irina Bag is a quick project you can finish with only 1/4 yard exterior and 4 leather blocks that will be practical anywhere you go. Unlike the Irina Bag though, the Anna Bag was originally a pain for me to design. I got the sizes came out all wrong from what I envisioned as it would be too small to store anything or too big to be comfortable... But after much tribulations I found the perfect ratio between storage and portability! Get them both as a combo this week!
