Christine Sling by Love You Sew (Printed Paper Pattern)

Christine Sling

The Christine Sling is a small compact camera-style bag perfect for everyday. It follows what I love in bag design simple, clean lines with versatile styling and a modern twist. As the Sling part of the name entails,this bag is meant to be worn across the chest or swung around the mid-back. However, with a quickchange of the accessory strap, the Christine can go to a full cross-body or even as a belt bag withadjusted length. There are so many ways to enjoy this design!

This bag includes instructions for two separate views. View A includes piping and accent fabric forsome fun raw-edge contrasting looks. View B uses the same main fabric throughout for a sleekerappearance and comes together very quickly without the piping. Both views have zipper and slippockets which are the same for the exterior and the lining. They are the perfect size to keep yourphone or keys accessible. You can even omit the pockets altogether on the exterior for a classic lookor double up the zipper pockets for extra security. The lining uses bias tape to keep seams cleanwhile also providing extra structure. Both views also include a wide accessory strap for comfort anda D-ring to hold your ear pods or sunglasses. Use contrasting fabric or even some pre-made webbingfor a fashionable statement strap!
