Fabric Mermaid Book Bag FREE sewing pattern
This is the Fabric Mermaid Book Bag FREE sewing pattern from the designer Julia from Inflorescence Designs shared through the blog therm.o.web.
The designer has made a fun Mermaid (or dragon) Tote Bag perfect for carrying books to and from wherever you may be going. Kids (and plenty of adults I know too) are going to love this fun bag with the shimmery scales. We love how you can theme it in colors for mermaids or dragons to make it just right.
My niece is going to go crazy when I show her this pattern and we have fun picking out the colors for the scales from my fabric scraps bag. There are some gorgeous shimmering and iridescent mermaid scales fabrics available too, so I’m tempted to go full-out and make a bag that will really turn heads. And that one will be for me!
It has fun 3D scales and a pull-string top so the books or other bits and pieces don’t topple out as the kids run about.
What’s needed to make a Fabric Mermaid Book Bag:-
- HeatnBond Medium Weight Interfacing,
