Today we have a special guest post by Nancy from Pink Sand Beach Designs:
Hi! I’m Nancy, the designer from Pink Sand Beach Designs patterns. Today I’m sharing two bags made in the fabulous Leesburg Fabrics by Jo Morton.
Keep an eye out for the giveaway at the end of this post! You won’t want to miss out!!
Tuscany Tote & Barbados Bag
Just in time for spring! They are so fun to make and easy to sew. Tuscany Tote is the perfect size tote with lots of pockets. There is a place for everything! Barbados Bag is my new favorite cross body bag and easily fits my iPad inside!
You can order these patterns on our website Pink Sand Beach Designs and make sure to pick up the Leesburg Fabric at your local shop …
On the left Tuscany Tote and on the right Barbados Bag
Tuscany Tote is so fun & easy to sew!
Easy to make in an afternoon using four of your favorite fabrics. Of course, Leesburg is the perfect fabric to use so you can show off this fabulous Jo Morton boarder print!! What do you think?
Tuscany Tote has 16 pockets inside!
You may be thinking that’s a lot of pockets, but really you just can’t have enough! You can make it with 8, 12 or 16 pockets to carry everything from your cell phone, sunglasses, lip gloss, day planner, and all of the items we like to carry with us. There is even enough room for you iPad or laptop. With a place for everything you will always be organized!
Take a look inside…
Barbados Bag is a fun to sew cross body bag!
All the features we girls want: Lots of pockets, easy to sew zippers and optional swivel hooks. You can make it using four of your favorite fabrics. A plus is that the pattern utilizes fat quarters!!
I love the 2 front pockets.
The zipper pocket is where I keep my cell phone secure plus it is such easy access when the phone rings!
The second pocket is a hidden pocket!
I use this for my keys so I can get to them quickly. Its right behind the zipper pocket so it’s great for larger items that you need easy access to. Plus there are two more pockets on the back!
Don’t be afraid of the zipper because we have detailed instructions that guide all skill levels. It’s fun to sew!
Optional Swivel Hooks!
The pattern shows you how easy it is to attach swivel hooks and D-Rings on the bag. You can make Barbados Bag without the hardware if you want, but I think they are such a nice touch. I like using Black and Gold hooks with my Jo Morton’s fabrics!
What do you think of my custom color hardware?

The cross over bag is perfect for hands free shopping. I especially like the pockets that make your car keys and cell phone easily accessible!.
