I need help finding a bag pattern to make for my 9 yr GD. I though about a messanger bag but she is so peite. I am thinking I may have to make my own using a manila file folder for the size. I have attached a photo, she is dressed up for the photo.
Open to any suggestions..
Thanks

They have patterns available, but I think they were listed under "professional's" bags, due to manilla folders fitting into them :D:D:D

I made 2 laptop bags that would also work as bags to carry folders, papers, or books. I don't know how to post a link to my original post (sorry, yes I'm blonde) but if you go to search and put in "laptop bags" it will come up. If you're interested I can give you the pattern.

I have just made this for my DD in her choice of very bright colours and she loves it. It's not too big and if you want to make it bigger just use bigger squares.

woody, I have made those for years, but I cut the top row of on point squares straight across. Both my granddaughters have a small one.

My problem is making it small enough to fit her, yet large enough for her folders.

That's a really cute bag, thank you for sharing the link!

I recently bought two patterns to show my adult daughters who want computer bags. I got Simplicity #3889 and McCalls 4531. It shouldn't be too hard to adjust the size for folders.
