Stockholm Bag - Pattern Update and Revision!

My most requested pattern update is finally HERE! The much loved Stockholm Bag now comes with optional zipper closure! The pattern has been completely rewritten and is now up to the standard of my new patterns! 

If you've purchased the old version pattern:

If you've previously purchased the pattern, you'll get a push update saying there's a new version available. If you have purchased the old version pattern through Etsy, a very old version of my website or in paper form, just drop me an email showing you've purchased the pattern and I'll email you the new PDF version for free. 



It also has a YouTube Video sew along with me now where we sew this Stockholm Bag together: 


You can now choose to close your Stockholm bag with a very nice zipper closure! This version is made with gorgeous eco-leather from Made By Lullan and it's lined with Tula Pink's gorgeous Sugar Skulls print from her De La Luna collection.  


This bag is super sturdy, stands up on it's own and has room for a LOT of stuff! The perfect beach or day on the town bag, it's ~12" (30cm) high and ~18" (20cm) wide at the top and 5" (13cm) deep at the base.

 



The interior has also been updated with a nicer and larger zipper pocket. 


You can of course choose to make it without closure or with a magnetic snap. 

This version I made with a vinyl I bought when travelling many years ago and finally dared to use. The cotton contrast fabric is Geode & Ink in Mint from Borlänge Sycentrum. The lining is Fairy Dust from Tula Pink



Zipper pocket on one side.

And generous open pockets on the other.
