The Convertible Tote Bag – Fits A 13? MacBook Pro, by So Sew Easy

This convertible tote bag turns into a backpack and a cross body bag. I have been thinking about a convertible tote bag that can answer some of the needs I have when I travel and because I just got a new computer.
Here is a pattern that follows that trend and I think you will like because is very practical. It has two zipper pockets inside which are sewn in a different way than the other bags I have shared with you so have a close look at the construction. The use of the flex foam creates the need to make a variation of a patch pocket that is very easy to make.
