I am officially hooked on making bags! Thanks to the amazing Annie of byannie.com I was able to make this gorgeous and ultra-functional travel bag. I was able to learn lots of new skills with this bag and I’m so proud of how it turned out.
This bag is the perfect travel companion for a weekend getaway. It includes a comfortable padded adjustable carrying strap and quick-grab side handles, as well as a handy sleeve on the back to secure the bag to rolling luggage.
The front has both a zippered and slip pocket as well as another slip pocket on the back and both sides. On the inside there is a full-height zippered mesh pocket and three more mesh slip pockets to organize lots of travel items.
All of the hardware is nickel and the straps are reinforced for strength. The bottom of the bag is stabilized with a custom acrylic insert, helping the bag handle whatever gets packed inside. On the bottom there are coordinating buttons to protect from wear.
I had so much fun making this bag and definitely want to make more in the future!
