Free Sewing Pattern: Ronda Handbag
With Christmas coming up, it is time to make some fun bags for your girlfriends, sisters, and moms (yes, that includes mom-in-law), maybe even your daughters... (Isn't it fun when little girls grow big...????)
So I thought this would be a great time to post another free purse pattern: this time it is the Ronda Handbag sewing pattern.
The Ronda Handbag was featured in Haute Handbags Magazine, Spring 2010 issue.

Super Cute Pockets on the side: handy too!
I love the Ronda Handbag so much!
When I carry it around it surprises me how super convenient it is!
I love the pockets on the side. So easy to get to! Even my husband can now find my keys!
The front and back are simple, but so fun when you use a specialty fabric with a fun print or so....
The sides have those handy dandy pockets right below a playful tie....
So adorable...
And inside: more pockets, even one with a zipper!
And the straps are long enough that you can go shopping hands-free! So convenient........
Just hang that purse over your shoulder, and walk around the store. No worries about keeping track of your cart and where your purse might be....
Love it....

The pattern includes detailed step-by-step instructions for an interior patch pocket & an interior zippered pocket. The point-by-point directions make them quite easy to make, but, of course, you may just omit the pockets altogether if you'd like.....
Potato Sack Edition of the Ronda Handbag
I used to sell this sewing pattern on Etsy, and this is what one customer said:
"Yahoo! What a fun purse to make and your directions were so concise and easy to follow. I'd never done a zipper pocket and loved it! My bag is adorable even if I do say so!! Thanks again to your creative pattern and potato sack! My sack says Penny Pincher and thanks to your good prices for your pattern and sack, I'm happy to say I am! Your company is great! I know I will be referring friends to you as soon as they see my new purse!"
What a sweetheart.....
