Hi today at Quilt Market the designer at Paradiso Designs gave me a link to get a free pattern for her Cross-Body Bag. I just looked it up and it is really awesome, it is actually a tutorial as well as a pattern. It has great pictures and seems pretty straight forward. I loved the purse when I saw it today and she told me she was giving the pattern away free on her site so here is the link.

I'm sorry, but I read body -bag and wondered if it meant like a bag you are buried in. Kind of like making your own casket blankets.
Then I realized... oh my! Too funny.

That is a great link, thank you.

Me, too!! (But then it's 4AM.) ;-)

Great looking (hands-free) bag.
My favorite kind.

It looks like a well written pattern, with lots and lots of pictures.
Thanks for the link to the .pdf file.

Thank you for the link.

Thanks for sharing!!

Oh my..I thought the same thing at first also.. as did my DH. Poor DH asked me..what kind a site this really is??? lol

This is a lovely bag and they do a very detailed, information tutorial. Thank you for sharing this link.

thanks for the link. they are becoming popular again

Thanks

Great bag, thanks for the link!

I thought the same thing! ☻☻☻

great bag even if my body won't fit in it. lol
thanks for sharing.

Thanks...it's a great bag and I have some vinyl just like they use in the pattern but couldn't think what to do with it!

My first thought was something to carry a gun in.
But then a lot of my family carry guns, and lots also do or did carry a badge.

:lol: Nice looking bag. Thanks for sharing. :lol:

LOL That is funny!!

Thanks for the link.

If it were for a real body bag, then I would say, "friends, this quilting thing has gone just a bit too far!!" LOL.

Thanks for sharing.

we both must be morbid because I didn't know what a Cross Body bag was either and the thought of a body bag with a cross on came to mind.

I don't use purses so maybe that's why. LOL

Thanks. Great tute, Great looking bag!!
