Th
e Vale Crossbody bag by ChrisW Designs is her newest pdf pattern and it includes 3 sizes! Pixie, Petite & Midi sizes. I made the cute
Pixie size. The Pixie is the smallest and
measures 8 3/4" wide x 6 3/4" high x 2" deep. A perfect size for carrying minimal items, or for a teen, or younger child, or make matching mommy/daughter bags. Need a bit more room? Petite size would be great for you. Midi is larger still for the person who has more to carry or larger items to hold.
The bag closes with a zipper, has a back zipper pocket and and inside zipper pocket. The front has a slip pocket with a snap closure. An adjustable strap that clips on.

| I upcycled denim jeans to make this Vale Pixie size. It would have been much easier to make if I hadn't used denim because it was a bit too thick in places. The Midi size would have been much better in denim. I wasn't thinking about the thickness of denim when I chose it, but Christine added a mention of it in the final pattern so someone else won't choose too heavy of a fabric. That's why we test patterns 😉to find out where the struggles are, if any, besides the usual typos, etc. |
