£8.20 excl. VAT

Amelia is a compact, stylish everyday tote bag designed to keep your essentials organised while standing out with its unique shape. The inverse trapezoid silhouette, paired with a softly rounded top edge and accent trim, gives this bag a distinctive, modern look.

A magnetic tab closure wraps neatly over the top to keep the bag closed, while side connectors allow you to attach an adjustable crossbody strap for everyday use.

The front features a single main panel, perfect for showcasing a favourite fabric or a statement print. On either side of the bag are slip pockets that gently extend from it, offering easy access to smaller items.

Inside, the fully lined interior includes a back zipper pocket, a spacious front slip pocket, and a key clip so your keys are always easy to find.

**You may sell the finished products that you make.**

    Love the bag but found by using foam in the top panel made it wavy which caused the lining to be baggy. Next one I think I will use decovil. Thank you for another great pattern
