Description
This pattern makes a small zipper-top bag, 9 inches wide, 7 inches deep, and 6 inches tall, with six pockets inside. Aunties Two suggests it for travel or small projects. You can make it from 2 1/2 inch strips, or from whole cloth, cork, or leather. The pattern includes two stainless steel stays, which keep the bag in shape.
What the Pattern Includes
The printed pattern, with instructions for both versions, and two Size E stainless steel stays with rubber tips, enough for one bag. This listing does not include fabric, batting, interfacing, zipper, or thread.
For a second bag, or to replace the stays in a finished one, the Size E bag stays (AT632) come in a 2-pack.
What You'll Need
- Bag body (strip version): 11 strips 2 1/2 inches wide by the width of the fabric; the pattern suggests 10 jelly roll strips and one strip from the coordinating fabric
- Bag body (fabric, cork, or leather version): two rectangles 16 inches wide by 9 inches tall
- Pockets, bottom, binding, bows, and tabs: 3/4 yard of non-directional coordinating fabric for the strip version, or 1 yard for the fabric, cork, or leather version
- Batting (strip version): one 25 yard roll of Bosal Katahdin batting, precut to 2 1/2 inches wide, or strips you cut from lightweight cotton batting; the 2 1/2 inch x 50 yard roll covers it

- Zipper: one 24 inch handbag zipper with double slides, which you cut to size; ByAnnie's Zippers by the Yard make one from the tape and two pulls
- Tools: sewing machine with a zigzag stitch and a free arm, Janome Purple Tip needles, steam iron, parchment paper or a Teflon sheet, large and small scissors, pins, Clover Wonder Clips, paper, rotary cutting mat, 60 mm rotary cutter, and acrylic rulers, chalk or a Frixion pen, seam ripper, a tape measure, and template plastic or paper

Fit and Limits
The pattern makes one size, 9 x 7 x 6 inches, in two versions: 2 1/2 inch strips with batting, or whole cloth, cork, or leather with fusible foam interfacing.
Aunties Two does not publish a skill level. The construction includes a double-slide zipper that you cut to size and a stiff fusible bottom, and the tool list calls for a sewing machine with a zigzag stitch and a free arm. Aunties Two posts free video tutorials for filling the batting strips, the pockets, the zipper and top binding, making and sewing on the bottom, and the side seam.
