Modern Sewing Co. Away Tote Sewing Pattern PDF
The Away Tote is the answer to the perfect weekend bag. Taking inspiration from the best selling Day Tote pattern, the Away Tote has been designed to hold a bigger capacity, with additional functions for carrying a heavier load.
Shaped to fit the size specifications of cabin luggage, the bag features a roomy interior that narrows towards the top, 2 handle lengths, spacious internal pockets and the option of a zip up lid for security.
A physical print out of the instruction booklet will NOT be included. You can view the instruction booklet on your device at home, print it out at home, or add the 'printed pattern instructions' product (see link below) to your order and we will print it for you.
We recommend choosing a sturdy and durable fabric for your main shell with a weight of around 13-18oz / 450-600gsm. A sturdy lining will also help to give the bag shape so try to choose something with a good weight and structure with a weight of around 10-15oz / 350-500gsm. And a mid/light weight cotton or linen is recommended for the piping to help reduce the bulky seam allowances.
