Mini messengers

Made 2 smaller messenger bags out of Korean import oxford cotton. This material is becoming my fabric of choice 'cos I like it's medium weight and smooth texture. There aren't as many prints for these as compared to quilting weight cotton though, and the Japanese version of oxford cotton costs double that of Korean. Whatever. It's the finished item that's important :-)

I made these without a pattern (only the triangular pencil case has a template) and they ended up about the same size though I made them separately and without comparison. That's what's fun about sewing :-) So, both have adjustable straps with metal slides, fully lined inside and pockets, interfaced, velcro to secure body, magnet to secure flap.
Have a blessed day!
