Lucy's 3-in-1 Kraft*Tex Bag Pattern

Lucy's 3-in-1 Kraft*Tex Bag Pattern by Gailen Runge, published by C&T Publishing Stash Books, includes sewing instructions for creating a versatile and stylish bag in three sizes: small, medium, and large weekender. Perfect for those overnight trips (fits carry-on luggage requirements)! Play with 2 different colors of kraft-tex and customize the interchangeable band with outside zipper pockets, inside passport pockets, and even knitting needle holders! Or add elastic straps and use the band by itself to carry your yoga mat or picnic blanket. The clever zipper treatment allows each of the three bags to open wide, making finding your necessities a breeze. Includes advice and tips on sewing and handling kraft-tex. Finished sizes: small (A) - 9" x 9 1/2" x 7 3/4"; medium (B) - 15" x 9 1/2" x 7 3/4"; large weekender bag (C) - 22" x 11 3/4" x 9 1/2".
