1 CUT OUT THE PATTERN PIECES.
From the pattern sheet included with this book, cut out
• Main panel
• Inside pocket panel
• Yoke
2 CUT OUT ALL OF THE PIECES FROM THE FABRIC.
a. Fold each of the fabrics in half lengthwise Wrong sides together, matching the selvage edges,* and gently press a crease. Open the fabric. Fold each edge in to meet the crease with Wrong sides together. This will give you enough folded edges to cut out the panels.
From the print exterior fabric
• Cut 2 main panels on the fold*
b. Open the fabric. Using a ruler and fabric marker, measure and mark the dimensions directly onto the Right side of a single layer of fabric. Then, cut along the marked lines.
• Cut 2 side panels: 3½″ (8.9 cm) wide × 36″ (91.4 cm) long
Note: The side panel is used to make the sides and bottom of the bag, as well as the handle.
From the coordinating exterior fabric
• Cut 2 yokes on the fold
From the lining fabric
• Cut 2 main panels on the fold
• Cut 4 inside pocket panels on the fold
c. Open the fabric. Measure and mark the dimensions directly onto the Right side of a single layer of fabric. Then, cut along the marked lines.
• Cut 2 side panels: 3½″ (8.9 cm) wide × 36″ (91.4 cm) long
d. Use the panels you have cut as full-size pattern pieces to cut out the fusible interfacing and fleece.
From the fusible interfacing
If using light- to mid-weight fabric
• Cut 4 main panels
• Cut 2 yokes
• Cut 4 side panels
• Cut 4 inside pocket panels
If using mid-weight Home Dec fabric
• Cut 4 main panels
