Aeroplane Bags Pattern *

The Aeoplane Bag Pattern by Sew Sweetness is a set of bags that is perfect for travel! Available in two sizes (regular and long), you will be able to pack a few days worth of clothing and essentials inside! The bottom of the bag is sturdy, and the top zipper is easy to install (if you have made a zipper pouch before, you will be able to do this easily!) – no hand sewing necessary! The finished size is as follows:
Regular 15-1/2” long x 17-1/2” tall x 6-1/2” deep Long 18-1/2” x 14-1/2” tall x 8-1/2” deep

Supplies Needed to Make This Bag (the supplies needed in this list will make 1 bag, either the regular or long bag)

Materials Needed:

• 3/4 yard of Exterior Fabric A (for top half of bag)
• 1/2 yard of Exterior Fabric B (for bottom half of bag)
• 1/4 yard of fabric for the straps
• 1 yard of Lining Fabric
• 1/2 yard of fabric for the zippered pockets
• 3 yards of Pellon® SF-101 Shape Flex® fusible woven interfacing (or lightweight fusible interfacing)
• 1 yard of By Annie’s Soft and Stable™, available at local quilt shops or on-line (Soft and Stable is a 1/8” thick, foam sew-in interfacing; one of my testers also recommends automotive headliner fabric in place of the Soft and Stable; you can also substitute a needled fleece fusible interfacing for the Soft and Stable, such as Pellon #TP971F Thermolam Plus fusible interfacing)
• 3/4 yard of Pellon #70 Peltex sew-in interfacing (or an extra-heavy sew-in interfacing)
• 26” sport zipper for size long, 24” sport zipper for size regular (a sport zipper is a thicker, separating zipper)
• Two 12” zippers (or a longer zipper may be used and trimmed down after sewing)
