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.

Made this up quickly before I left on a cruise. Perfect to hold cell phone, room pass and credit card securely. The instructions for this bag deserve a award. I have never read such logical, clearly written instructions. I will be making again in something more colorful but was looking for something to blend in for this event.

Loved making this pattern.
Laverne M. 5/5 Verified
This is an almost-perfect bag. The design itself IS perfect - I just needed it to be a liiiitle bit bigger. Going to print larger, but I think the original size could be a bit bigger to start. Other than that - easy to make, a great grab just the essentials bag, lightweight - just perfect! I HIGHLY recommend this.

Super fun make - and went together quickly. Good directions and a helpful video made success even easier. I used some non traditional material for the bag panels (stretchy stuff) but with the interfacing it all worked out great. Thanks for a great pattern!
