I’m super excited to show you the Ready-to-go sewing pattern available right now in my pattern shop. It has two versions; wristlet and crossbody, they are the same size but you can wear them differently, that is the crossbody across your shoulder and the wristlet on your wrist. There are also two methods of boxing the bottom corners; the sewing method and the rivet method, both of these are based on your choice and gives the same results.

Great news! there is a contest going on for 3 weeks from today, all you need to do to enter the contest is to make a Ready-to-go purse either the crossbody or wristlet or both, and post it to our Facebook community; Tobistylx Sewing Patterns then you stand the chance to be the winner of this contest!
