No. 2 Shoulder Bag
No. 2 Shoulder bag is a simplified alternative to the Gabrielle Shoulder Bag pattern. This design comes in two sizes, including a regular size that is slightly larger than the Gabrielle with a longer shoulder strap, and a mini size that is both adorable and functional. The No. 2 Shoulder Bag pattern is straightforward and quick to sew, though it includes a few tricky steps, particularly when attaching the gusset panel. I've adjusted the method for attaching the shoulder strap compared to the Gabrielle pattern to ensure a more manageable process and a more satisfying result. This pattern is ideal for those who enjoy crafting a simple, retro handbag without the frustration of complex curvy zippers.
