Hi, I have just joined this website and found some amazing patterns. But as a novice sewer i wanted something easy to start with. This is brilliant. It looks fantastic, just like a store bought one. I’ll be making many more of these. After printing, cutting and pasting pattern sheets, it took me no more than 3 hours to cut and make. Love it. Picture to follow later.

Haha and when you posted the Sadie pattern I was wondering whether you would post the pattern for the shorts or the bag… :D

its very cute for the simple style its going for. it reminds me of one of my bags, except mine was not reversible because it had pockets in the inside.

I’ve had a similar, but more complicated bag in mind for a while… I think I’ll improve this. After I make all the other things I’ve planned to make.
