DS-049 The Brigantine Bag Digital Pattern

This is a PDF pattern to create a leather cross-body bag - The Brigantine Bag. The leather template includes pattern to make an adjustable leather strap using a whole belt buckle and swivel clasp buckles. The second option is to use a purse chain of various lengths for a light stylish carry. Alternatively, you can make a fixed-length leather strap using the included patterns. The bag pattern comes with two front look variations - one using a strap and a button stud for the closure and the other - a LOXX closure button. Note that punching all stitching holes before assembly is not possible with this pattern. The leather bag design allows for creative two-tone or monochrome leather combinations.
