Painted Lady

Designed by UJAMAA BAGETTES

A stylish, trapezoidal, shoulder or crossbody messenger bag

PAINTED LADY (Vanessa cardui) is one of the more familiar butterflies in the world since it inhabits every continent except Australia and Antartica. This butterfly can travel up to 100 miles a day when migrating. Our PAINTED LADY is a compact, stylish, shoulder or cross-body messenger bag with many pockets inside and outside and we hope that she too will travel world-wide - including Australia.

Emmaline Bags sells BAGETTES patterns online, and all profits from these pattern sales go directly to the Grandmothers Campaign. 

++ This is a PDF Pattern.

++ Instructions are in English only.

Features: 
  • An attractive trapezoid shape
  • An asymmetric front fold-over flap (wing) that secures with magnetic snaps and is perfect for embellishing
  • Hidden, but convenient, zippered pocket under the front flap
  • A second exterior zippered pocket on the back
  • Deep in the heart of PAINTED LADY, find a full-width, divided slip pocket and a zippered pocket for organized inside storage
  • Firm structure is derived from layered elements, fusible fleece and firm stabilizer

PAINTED LADY is well suited to canvas or other sturdy fabric. The lining fabric can be quilting weight cotton or sturdier stuff such as commander (cotton poly blend with a hard surface) or lightweight canvas.

The pattern includes directions for a self made shoulder strap with three fastening variations but appropriate width webbing can be used for a sturdy but more casual look.

PRINTING INFORMATION:
  • To print, open in the most recently updated ADOBE READER or Adobe Acrobat. (If it is not updated, your pages may print black.)

  • A 1” x 1” test square is provided.
