Tutorial: Vintage-y Elle handbag for little girls

August 29, 2012 by Anne Weaver

Jessica from Running With Scissors shares a free pattern and tutorial on her blog for a vintage-y handbag for little girls.  The shape reminds me of the purses my grandmother used to carry to church, but the size is just right for small hands to carry.  Get the pattern and tutorial.

Sewing Pattern – Paper Bag Pants Pattern

The paper bag pants pattern is a favorite of casual chic dressers. It is a super easy project perfect for sewing over the weekend. If you pair it with a cardigan and booties, vans shoes or sandals it is sure to become your favorite outfit when you are hoping to look cool but not overdressed.

Two pockets in the front will ensure you can carry a few things like your phone and wallet.

The elastic waistband gives you room for a curvy bum or gives shape to a flat one. Two pockets in the front and a belted waistband to tie your pants around your waist, tapered legs that fall just above your ankles round up this very comfortable design.
