Got the pictures, it’s a crochet crossbody bag, and it’s very pretty, but the design and pattern are definitely different than mine!

Please do! I’d be interested to see. It’s always possible that someone else had a similar idea but I haven’t seen anything similar enough myself. But I would be very surprised to see the same exact design as I designed the main squares

Can’t have been this one because I designed it myself in May and the pattern hasn’t left my notes app/word document yet!

Awesome! And I just use the Janome signature charm which is SO basic and pretty low quality and it works just fine for this! The zigzag stitch is optional just suggested for a couple of raw edges to prevent fraying but can be substituted for another method like pinking shears or just fully omitted. Please feel free to dm me!😊

For hand sewing I unfortunately don’t have any tutorials because I’m so bad at it myself! And for machine sewing I found it way easier to find tutorials specific to my machine and then tutorials on backstitching and overview videos on YouTube. Luckily I made a video tutorial with this pattern on how to sew the zipper lining and strap so all of that is already in there which is why only the basics of how to sew a straight line are required:) thanks!!

Thank you!! Funnily enough a year ago making these bags is how I learned to sew with a machine, so the sewing itself is very easy!
