Crossbody bags are best for carrying around. They are perfect for any sort of outing. Shopping, dinner or simple vacations you name it.
That’s why you will find a lot of tutorials for crossbody bags on my studio, crossbody bags or side shoulder sling bags are my personal favorite as well.
The crossbody bag I have made in this tutorial is made from polyester canvas. Both outside and lining materials are of the same polyester canvas fabric. I have fused the lining fabrics with lightweight fusible interfacing. For outside bag, I have quilted the fabric with polyester sheet.
There are two pockets on the inside, a slip pocket and a zipper pocket. Slip pocket covers the whole width of the bag and zipper pocket is 2cm short on both sides.
The zip I have used on the inside pocket is in nylon zipper no 3.
The main zipper is brass zip no 5. The D-rings used as Strap holders are 2cm wide.
All the accessories are gold in color.
Final size of the bag is
Height: 21cm
Width: 29cm
Depth: 8cm
