Festival Cross-Over bag

There are times when rather than carrying a large bag you want something smaller.  This bag is called 'Festival'.  It's a patchwork cross-over bag which is colourful, practical and compact.  There is an attractive button and loop fastening on the front.

Each side of the bag is different.  The bag is fully lined in black and there is a zippered pocket on the inside.  The pocket lining is in egg yolk yellow.   The zipper is grey nylon.   Between the layers is some foam which provides the bag with extra structure.  There is also foam in the long strap and this makes the bag comfortable over the shoulder.  The strap is in a combination of grey, black and brown fabric and is long so that the bag can be worn across the body.

The bag has been quilted in narrow vertical lines.

The approximate measurements of the bag are W10" x H9" or W25.5cms x H23 cms.  The strap measures approximately 25" or 63.5 cms. The zippered pocket measures approximately W5½" x H6½". or 13.5 cms x 16.5 cms.

The bag was made on a domestic machine and finished by hand.  The bag is machine washable on a gentle setting (although particular care will be needed to protect the button).
