Summer is a busy time! Create a bag that will meet all the needs of a busy summer lifestyle. We’ll be making a modified version of a great pattern designed by Jenny of Sincerely, Jen Patterns. The bag will be constructed with waterproof canvas – a durable fabric that is also domestic machine friendly. This will become your go-to-bag this summer and for seasons to come!
