Made this Clutch Purse some time last year and it had been sitting in my gallery, forgotten... 🙃

I took just 4 pictures of it, so it escapes my notice each time I scroll through all those photos. I finally caught it last weekend and I'm happy to share this beautiful make with you here 😊 😃.

WhatsApp saw these first, and I received a few requests for a tutorial, which unfortunately, I don't have at this time.

If I get more DMs for the tutorial of this design, I'll have to add it to my YouTube tutorial queue for 2025. So, let me know in the comments if you'll love to see a tutorial on this design as well 📥

While I go back to hunt for more 'forgotten photos', I hope you have a great rest of the day 💙

The Skylark IS HERE!

I’m beyond excited to announce the launch of my latest sewing pattern: The Skylark.

This is an expandable backpack designed to be a very functional and unique piece. It comes together easily, and it is the perfect project to get your week started!

The Skylark features:
two (2) exterior anti-theft pockets
one (1) interior zipper pocket
one (1) interior slip pocket
adjustable shoulder straps
one (1) main zipper compartment.

It has a ‘wing’ feature on the sides that allows an expansion or reduction of its main compartment to accommodate more items. The front panel is also the perfect spot to show off beautiful fabrics and custom-made designs.

The Skylark can be fully made on a domestic sewing machine, as it is a soft-structure backpack that does not require the use of interfacing unless very light fabric is used. It can also be made in two different sizes:

- Small: L = 25.5cm/10”, H = 33cm/13”, W = 14cm/5.5”.
- Large: L = 32cm/12.5”, H = 41cm/16”, W= 17.5cm/7”.

This pattern has separate files for both sizes, SEWING INSTRUCTIONS and a FULL VIDEO TUTORIAL to confidently walk you through the making process.

The Skylark is live here:
