Whether you need the perfect overnight bag, a sturdy market tote, or a giant carryall for your sewing supplies, this is the bag for you! In this class, you’ll learn to work with cork and canvas, install zippers with confidence, and build a roomy bag shaped with pleats and a gusset. And the pockets — so many pockets! You’ll leave with a beautiful finished tote and bag-making skills to use on future projects.
 

Bonus project: We’ll also make an adorable cork bow bag charm with a clever slot designed to hold your sunglasses, so they’re always within reach.

Material fee includes: Cork for the top & handles. Cotton canvas for the bag outside. Waterproof canvas for lining. Zipper for top closure & pattern (which includes 2 sizes!)
