Very nice pattern. I had to alter the strap to make it wider to fit the hardware and it works great now. Made this for a friend and she loves it.

I made my first one with some trial and error. Not sure if I put the wrong pattern piece together or what. Gonna make another one for sure. I wish the person doing the video would have spoken in the instructions.

This is Such a great product! The Video tutorial on YouTube was my guide. It can also be used to hold hot water bottle when you’re in bed. My friend put a bag of dried lavender inside along with a blanket to get a scented pillow. This is remarkably easy to make and so multifunctional. Thank you!!!

I love this pattern. I’ve been looking for an alternative to another popular pattern out there. This one fit what I wanted. I love the exterior pockets and the drawstring top. Will definitely be making more in future.

Love the pattern. A quick sew. I did leave the back slip pocket and drawstring off.

Cute pattern! My first effort used a piece of linen and quilt cotton lining. I went against pattern instructions and used an SF101 equivalent and regretted it. The light linen particularly needed a stiffer interfacing. I recommend a narrow foot for topstitching and the drawstring casing. This would make a great gift bag for small items.

I’ve only done one, but forgot to add the d-ring tab! 🤦🏻♀️ Will be making more, though, it was a quick and relatively easy sew! As always, I love the pictures and directions, very well written and photographed!

Always been a fan of the smaller version of the wanderlust bag. This larger pattern does not disappoint, easy instructions and tutorial video. Absolutely loved making this bag.

Making this pattern was a great experience, it's absolutely worth the price! The pattern was really clear and thoughtful, and I'm thrilled with the final product. An optional piece of advice: I decided to add quilt batting to the section that wraps around the neck (Piece D) and was really happy with the result. It was very simple to add, and it smooths out the texture of the pillow when stuffed with a bunch of different clothing pieces.

Really happy I found this pattern. I am pretty new to sewing, but the video tutorial made it really easy! I upcycled upholstery fabric samples so I did not have to use interfacing. I've already made 5! Can't wait to try making some other bags!

I love this bag and have clients that also want this bag. Can’t wait to make more and share it with them all. Janet at bluzonebags.com

I love the simplicity of the pattern. I found the area at the fold of the bag (where the bag turns) to be bulky when making the Duo Compartment. I am working on ways to decrease the bulkiness.

Haven’t used it yet but it was an easy sew. I used flannel for the outside and cotton for the inside.

Cute and easy pattern

It was a lot smaller than I expected….the spray bottle is to show the size. Also, I feel both fabrics needed interfacing, so I used SF101 , and it made it have some stability/ structure..

I really enjoyed sewing this pattern. The instructions were clear and easy to follow, and after taking a break from sewing for a while, this project truly brought back the “sew jio” in me. I was especially happy that I could put together a birthday gift for a friend so quickly.
