Today I’m showing off the Ethel Tote from Swoon Patterns. It’s an amazing free purse pattern and I’ve been meaning to sew one up for ages. I finally did and I will be making more for sure. So cute right?
This free purse pattern has lots of pockets {like I adore}! Oh, and my cardigan is also a free sewing pattern. You can get it in this blog post.
I made mine with cotton on the outside and a windbreaker type wipeable fabric inside. I find my mom purses get really messy inside, so I wanted to be able to clean it.
Two pockets on the inside and two on the outside.
And plenty of room in the main pocket for all my bigger stuff.
This bag is very structured with lots of interfacing and linings and the result is so professional! It’s an easy sew technique wise so anyone can try it! You can download the Ethel Tote from Swoon Patterns by clicking the link.
here are links to a few of my free purse patterns:
