Noodlehead - Paper Sewing Pattern - Pepin Tote Bag

Meet your new everyday bag. The Pepin Tote Bag sewing pattern by Noodlehead is a beginner-friendly project for making a practical, roomy tote to carry your everyday extras, from notebooks and work essentials to travel bits and pieces.

The simple design is made entirely from rectangles, so there are no templates to cut out. It includes a front pocket for showcasing a favourite print, plus a divided interior pocket to keep smaller items organised. Keep the design clean and simple, or customise your tote with optional closures.

Choose a magnetic snap for the main opening, add a recessed zip for extra security, or finish the front pocket with a snap, turn lock or another closure of your choice. There's plenty of room to make the design your own.
