This is a full color tutorial with step-by-step pictures to sew a classic bowler bag with trendy clear vinyl. Who says should clear bags be boring? Add a pop of color or a print with the contrast bottom, or make one side clear and one side opaque for a fun twist-and-reveal! Two sizes are included in this pdf: Tall (10"x9") and Wide (9"x10"). With only 4 or 5 pattern pieces to print, this is a remarkably quick and simple sew!
