My daughter wants me to make a purse similar to the one in the link below .Anyone have any ideas of were I could find one that is close and that's free. http://www.fossil.com/en_US/shop/wom...11729EF079135. thanks.

I would love to know too! I have the first purse, in a different Fossil fabric and love it.

I draw my own patterns for purses on paper bags. You might want to try it, it can save you some money and they come out just as nicely as with a store bought pattern.

I agree, I draw my own patterns also, but I always put more pockets inside.

I'm interested if someone has a pattern. I use a cane now and a cross body purse is much more convenient to use, don't need a hand to control it. I have a small leather one that I leave on when I get into my car, seat belt goes over it without any problem and purse doesn't intefer with my driving. It's a little hard and pokes me in the ribs sometimes so a nice soft fabric cross body purse is just what I need. May in Jersey

I want to know too.

http://www.allcrafts.net/sewing/pursesew.htm Could you find something here, maybe doctor it up?http://pursepatterns.com/free_bag_patterns.html Or this one?

Cool site! I saved the link on the first one!

Do you need a special pattern for cross body bags or could you just add a long strap to a regular bag pattern?
