Thanks for the beautiful and easy to follow pattern. Love my new bag!
The Ruby crossbody is a fabulous pattern. Well written and super functional. Natalie knocked it out of the park with this pattern
I haven’t made this pattern yet. I’m going to use it to make my first custom bag order!
It is a nice bag to use with small wallet. Instructions were easy to follow.
Natalie provides excellent directions on all of her patterns. If you are looking for a nice bag to sew, this might be it!
I have made several bags with this pattern and it’s such a nice size and wonderful bag to make! The instructions are great and easy to follow!
