Pattern Details

Caret Down

The Mia is an upscale sling bag with a slim silhouette. It can be carried across the front or back with an adjustable webbing strap for comfort. The Mia can be made using vinyl, faux leather, real leather, or cotton canvas. Watch the Mia video tutorial here.

Bag Features

  • Adjustable webbing strap
  • Flap with magnetic closure
  • Slip pocket under the flap
  • Main compartment with double zipper closure
  • Fully lined interior
  • Four credit card slots and an interior slip pocket
  • Rear zipper pocket
  • Finished Size: 7" W x 11" H x 2" D

Slim But Spacious
The sleek silhouette makes the Mia sling easy to carry, while the variety of pockets and credit card slots provide plenty of room for essentials.

Wear It Two Ways
The asymmetrical webbing strap makes it simple to wear the Mia across your back or front — and easily switch between the two without removing the bag.

Keep Your Phone Secure
With a front slip pocket under the flap and a rear zipper pocket, you have options for carrying your phone. Both fit a large cell phone, so you have easy access while keeping it secure.

This purchase is for a sewing pattern to construct the Mia, not a completed bag.

Sewing Machine Requirements

It is important to know your machine and the materials that it can handle. If you are using real or faux leather, we recommend an industrial or heavy-duty domestic sewing machine. If you are using lightweight faux leather or cotton canvas, a domestic machine can be used. For best results, keep any woven interfacing out of the seam allowances on a domestic machine.
