This is a great pattern. It’s simple but can look dramatic because of the unusual front design and the ability to showcase multiple fabrics on the exterior without doing piecework. I made the tall one and changed the zipper placement, but otherwise followed the pattern as written. It’s become one of most used bags.

I love this pattern, I made the tall and wide and use it for everything I need to pack when heading out to quilt guild meeting. I so appreciate the roomy pockets and minimal hardware needed.
