Unique & exclusive high fashion sewing patterns for dressmaking divas and fashion-obsessed sewers

Handbag Heaven Nairobi Bag

Handbag Heaven Nairobi Bag
This super-stylish bag is inspired by the fabulous YSL ‘Mombassa’ bag, a must-have for every fashionista. This bag is perfect for those luxe smaller pieces of fabric you have in your stash...try brocade, silk, denim, faux or real skins, velvets, metallics, and upholstery fabrics. This is a variation on a classic tote bag, so it’s open at the top but has an optional snap or magnetic closure strap inside. The bag also features optional inside phone & zippered pockets, and classic handbag feet on the bottom. Wear this great bag with your favorite HotPatterns outfit, diva-style shades and heels, of course!
