Pony Express

Designed by UJAMAA BAGETTES

An asymmetrical saddle bag.

PONY EXPRESS may remind you of a designer saddle bag that was in style in the early 00's and has had a recent come back. The real beauty of PONY EXPRESS is the way you can enhance it with embellishments on the front detail and the piped flap. There are many suitable places for rivets, custom embroidery, paint, beading or stencilling. Make PONY EXPRESS dressy, classic, punk or casual with fabric and embellishments. This is not just a bag; it is a blank canvas for your imagination. Go all out and make the optional guitar strap.

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 asymmetrical profile reminiscent of an equestrian saddle
  • Piping on the flap and the front body
  • Front “stirrup” detail
  • Cropped shoulder strap
  • Flap stays in place with a hidden velcro strip
  • Full-width slip pocket on the back which closes with a magnetic snap
  • Inside a zippered pocket and a full-width slip pocket
  • 9” (23 cm) strap drop
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.) 
  • To print accurately, open in ADOBE from a computer, and when printing make sure that the “scaling” is set to “none” or “actual size” in the print properties.
  • A 1” x 1” test square is provided.
  • Print the templates and measure the square to check printing accuracy
    Skill Level:
    • PONY EXPRESS will appeal to the artistic or experienced bag maker as it is easily taken up a notch with cork, leather or vinyl, embellishments and the decorative guitar strap but if you really want to keep it simple, omit the front overlay, the piping and the decorative front strap but they are not difficult to do and you’ll be happy if you add them. We promise.
