THE ELPIS BUNDLE: Elpis Convertible Backpack + Elpis Handbag
If you can’t decide, why not get them both!
Since the Handbag pattern was born out of the Backpack pattern and they have the same base, they both got the same name and are available together in this convenient bundle.
The patterns could be classified as intermediate. Each has step by step instructions with over 250 photos to guide you through the whole process, as well as a video tutorial.
The Elpis Handbag comes in two sizes, to suit your needs. The handles can be attached to the bag, or with connectors for added bling. The (optional) side connectors along with the adjustable strap turn it into a Shoulder bag as well. You can choose to make it using the turning (birthing) method or drop-in lining.
The Elpis Convertible Backpack comes in two sizes, to suit your needs. It has removable straps so it can be a Backpack or a Handbag, the sides can be cinched or open, and with side connectors on the open sides it converts to a Shoulder bag as well.
