Preparing your fabric

From your paper pattern, created on the fold; (1 square = 2 inch)
Totally height 14”, total length along the top 14”, total length along the bottom 18” – with 2” squares cut out from the two bottom corners of bag, this needs to be
done in all layers.
Cut 2 interfacing piecesCut 2 blue cotton fabric pieces
Cut 2 outer fabric piecesCut 2 pieces of the black fabric 2”x1” and sew in raw
edges along the two longer sidesUsing your 1” hexie, cut two hexagon hexies, using the glue pen fold over the edges to create nice neat/sharp
edges and top stitch them together (wrong sides facing, don’t forget to add a couple of pieces of short ribbon)

Adding the zip and tabs
See photo above and below
Repeat process for the other side of zip

Next… Iron on your fusible medium weight interfacing to the
wrong side of the blue lining fabric. Sew right side together of the outer fabric, along the
bottom and down each side (not the corners) press seams open
Sew the interfaced lining, right sides together but leave a 3” gap along the bottom edge (this is to pull
your bag through at the end - the clever bit) press seams open

Pull your corners apart, like your opening a packet of crisps, lay flat and sew, then press seam open

Press and then pull the whole bag through the hole you left in the lining fabric, sew up the hole with a slip stitch and
press bag… fill with lunch and go 😊
