To continue to build your bag-making confidence, the Fold-Over Crossbody Bag has been designed with similar steps as the Quilted Pouches. This convenient crossbody has a trendy design with contrasting accents. There’s plenty of space inside to store essentials, and the adjustable strap can be removed to allow you to carry this bag as a clutch. With this project, build skills in fabric preparation, adding a contrasting scrap closure, adding an interior slip pocket, easily installing a zipper, assembling the bag, making an adjustable strap, and making an optional tassel.
