Join us for the day and sew the Bestie Bag! From everyday errands to life's greatest adventures, this bag will be your cute new sidekick. The Bestie Bag is a banana-shaped carry-all companion with four different views, so you can tailor its size, straps, and pockets to suit your needs and style!
If everyday wear is what you’re after, views A & B are your best bet: medium-sized with an optional flat or pleated front. To make your Bestie fit for adventure, the larger views, C & D, are sure to have enough space for all of your on-the-go necessities (and then some!).
No matter which size you choose, you’ll be able to wear it cross-body or as a shoulder bag with a sturdy webbing or fabric strap, with or without hardware. Equipped with a zip enclosure to keep everything safe, your cute new sidekick awaits!
When you join us for the day to make this fantastic bag you will be guided step by step in the construction of the bag, inserting your zip and adding lining if you choose to have lining.
