The Edelweiss Bag Pattern by Sew Sweetness has instructions to make this bag either as a backpack or a cross-body bag! There are pretty flap pockets on the front, as well as both a zip closure and flap at the top of the bag. With an inner zipper pocket, you’ll have lots of places to store the essentials that you need to keep within easy reach! Finished size is approximately 15-1/2" tall x 12" wide x 5" deep.

Materials Needed:

• 1 yard of fabric for the exterior (1-1/4 yard for directional prints)
• 1 yard of fabric for the lining
• 3 yards of 20” wide Pellon® SF-101 Shape Flex® fusible woven interfacing (or light-weight fusible interfacing)
• 3/4 yard of By Annie’s Soft and Stable™ (Soft and Stable is a 1/8” thick, foam sew-in interfacing; one of my testers also recommends automotive headliner fabric in place of the Soft and Stable)
• 1 package of (3 yards) double-fold bias tape, 1/2” wide (or make your own) – twill tape will work as well
• 20” regular zipper
• 9” regular zipper
• Three 1/2” magnetic snaps
• 1-1/2” metal slider and 1-1/2” metal rectangle ring (1 of each for the cross-body bag OR 2 of each for the backpack)
