This high end looking bag features exterior straps to showcase gorgeous hardware. The inside features a zippered pocket and a double welt pocket.

It can be made from various fabric mediums such as pliable faux leathers, vinyl, cork fabric or quilting cotton. This pattern has a facing technique that will be familiar to those that sew clothing. This pattern will be a very satisfying sew for an indulgent bag for yourself or those that love strappy bags!
The Mookibii Slouch Bag is the second collaboration between Needle & Anchor and Jumping Mouse!
Skill level:
This pattern is for the Intermediate bagmaker. You'll need to know how to install zippers and be open to trying new techniques. This pattern is domestic machine friendly as long as you use thinner vinyl or fabric - you’ll need to choose your materials appropriately. The designer says that you should not let this discourage you. She has a Facebook group that she's very active in if you need help. She also has a very helpful admin team and group members.
