The Thornham Bag PDF Pattern by Charlie's Aunt includes sewing instructions and pattern templates for creating a design influenced by the unfussy, simple shapes of the 1940s, with a versatile, useful style and a touch of period chic. It is a practical size for all occasions and makes up well in a range of fabrics. The bag features an unusual asymmetrical flap and front pocket which gives the impression of a double flap.
