This is the official tutorial for the Breehan Bag from ENDesigns. This convertible backpack is a versatile, medium-sized bag designed for intermediate sewists. It features an exterior cell phone pocket, a secure zipper pocket, and easily converts from a backpack to a shoulder or crossbody bag. Inside, you'll find both a slip pocket and a zipper pocket for added organization. Perfect for staying stylish and organized on the go. Designed for raw-edge fabrics, facings will be required if using woven alternatives. Drop-in lining. Webbing crossbody strap included. The exterior has 3 options: Pieced, solid, and faux stitching.
Finished measurements: 11" W x 10.5" H x 3" D
It is assumed that as we start all your pattern pieces are cut and have interfacing applied as appropriate for your chosen base. It is also recommended that all relevant markings be transferred from the pattern pieces prior to beginning and that all pattern pieces with the exception of decorative pieces such as the strap pieces, pocket trim and zipper overlay have centers marked at the top and bottom to help in construction. If you wish to edge paint your raw materials it is recommended that that be done prior to sewing where possible.
