The Stella Diaper Bag Pattern

Styled like a classic diaper bag, the Stella bag is large enough to carry everything you need for your baby [or yourself!], but still looks stylish enough to be used by anyone, not just moms. It has six large outside pockets as well as several inside pockets, to help keep things organized and at your fingertips. The side ties add a sweet touch as well as give the bag versatility, you can let it out for more room or cinch it up to take up less space. Finished size: 11 1/2" T x 18" W x 5" D, with a 11" drop.

• (45) 5" squares or (90) 2 1/2" x 5" pieces (outside)
