Description
This pattern makes a small zipper-top bag in two sizes, both 9 inches wide and 7 inches deep: the large is 7 inches tall and the small is 5. Aunties Two suggests it as a travel bag, a cosmetic bag, or a sewing kit, and the inside has several pockets. The pattern includes two pre-bent stainless steel stays, which keep the bag in shape.
What the Pattern Includes
The printed pattern and two pre-bent Size E stainless steel stays with rubber tips, enough for one bag. The directions cover non-directional prints and give cutting sizes for directional prints. This listing does not include fabric, 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
- Outside bag body and sashing: 3/8 yard for the large bag or 1/4 yard for the small
- Directional prints: two rectangles 10 1/2 inches tall by 16 inches wide and two strips 10 inches tall by 1 1/4 inches wide for the large bag; two rectangles 8 1/2 inches tall by 16 inches wide and two strips 8 1/2 inches tall by 1 1/4 inches wide for the small
- Inside lining, sashing, and pockets: 5/8 yard for the large bag or 1/2 yard for the small
- Handles, bottom, binding, bows, and tabs: 1/2 yard for either size
- Bag body interfacing: Bosal In-R-Form Plus, 18 x 58 inches, which makes both a large and a small bag; the 58 x 36 inch package covers it
- Bottom: 1/2 yard of Bosal Craf-Tex Plus, 20 inches wide, or Bosal's precut Mini Poppins Bag Bottoms
- Stays: the pattern includes two
- Zipper: one 24 or 30 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
- Thread: piecing thread to match all fabrics, and 12 weight cotton thread (Aurifil or Sulky) to match the coordinating fabric, for hand sewing
- Tools: sewing machine with a walking foot, Microtex 90/14 needles, steam iron, parchment paper or a Teflon sheet, large and small scissors, pins, Clover Wonder Clips, 60 mm rotary cutter, mat, and acrylic rulers, chalk or a Frixion pen, seam ripper, size 5 milliner's needles, and a tape measure; template plastic is optional
Perfect For
- A cosmetic bag for travel
- A sewing kit
- A small zipper-top bag in a choice of two heights
Fit and Limits
The pattern makes two heights of one bag, 9 x 7 inches at the base. Aunties Two publishes three larger Poppins patterns, each with its own stays: the Giant Poppins Bag (24 inches wide, 12 deep, and 20 tall), the Poppins Bag (18 inches wide, 12 deep, and 14 tall), and the Little Poppins Bag (13 inches wide and 9 deep, in 12 or 9 inch heights).
Aunties Two does not publish a skill level. The construction includes double-sided fusible foam interfacing in the bag body, a double-slide zipper that you cut to size, and hand sewing with 12 weight thread, and the tool list calls for a walking foot. Aunties Two posts free video tutorials for the pockets, the side seams, the zipper and top binding, and the bottom and stays.
