The Infinity Tie-Strap Tote Bag PDF sewing pattern is inspired by a Buddhist monk’s shoulder satchel. It’s designed for utility with a touch of flair. It’s even reversible! The infinitely adjustable shoulder strap is designed to be tied to make it the perfect length for you, every time. You can wear it over the shoulder, cross-body, tied to the shoulder straps of your baby carrier, or to the handles of your stroller. It comes in 4 sizes, Doll, Small (Child), Medium (Teen), and Large. You are currently on the page for the Large bag. If you want a different size, click the size you are looking for, or get the bundle of all 4 sizes.

How hard is it?
Most test sewers rate this as an confident beginner pattern as it has a few steps that would be difficult for a complete beginner. Patterns lines are clean and crisp, with clear professional markings and a symbol key. Printable on 8.5″ x 11″ or A4 paper. Patterns have 1/2″ and 1 cm seam allowance options. The written and video tutorials include step-by-step instructions and many photos.
This tote bag sewing pattern has one main body pattern piece and the strap. The strap is broken up into 3 options so you can create your perfect bag. The center body panel is a great place to feature panel prints, large scale fabric, keepsake fabric, legacy wraps, rare fabric, and embroidery. The top can be closed with a tab, zipper, or just left open. The tote has 2 snap markings so you can snap it closed even if it’s full to the brim.
A tote bag is great, but pockets make it better. Instructions are included for adding a patch, slip, or zippered pocket on the inside or outside. Let your creativity go wild! Use different fabrics for each strap section, inside and out, or make it all out of the same fabric. Add trim, pockets, or embroidery. Make the whole thing, or just the pocket out of PUL for a wet bag, or out of mesh for a beach bag that the sand can get out of. Use your imagination!

I am trying to use the code to get the bundle sizes and I receive a message that the code is invalid.
Hi there, I’m sending an email with help. The code only works for the medium size bag
