Free pattern: Fringe clutch

October 9, 2015 by Anne Weaver

This fringe clutch is cute for date night or girls’ night out, when you need to carry wallet and phone but don’t need to be burdened with a full purse. Daniela from On The Cutting Floor shares a free pattern for making it. The fringed flap is a dramatic accent for the small bag. Straps allow you to carry it hands-free if you like, and a turn lock clasp makes a smart closure.

Easy Cosmetics Bag Sewing Pattern

The bag is simple, uses very little fabric (about 2/3rds of a fat quarter), has no fussy inside pockets (although you can add your own if you like), and takes me well less than 30 minutes to print the pattern, cut out and sew. But quick and simple doesn’t mean it’s not awesome!

It’s the sort of bag that is versatile enough to be used for lots of applications, not just cosmetics and toiletries. Keep all your pens and pencils in order, use it for a small first aid kit for the car, keep it in your desk at work for a few headache pills and other personal supplies.

Make some for yourself, for gifts or to sell.
