Arch Clutch

Take me to the theatre or out to dinner - I’m your new companion for carrying essentials on a night out! I might be cute and compact but I’m practical too: you can fit a large phone and a wallet in my main compartment plus cards and cash in my internal zipper pocket. Prefer to go completely hands-free? Add a handy wrist strap (optional) and you’ll never lose me!

Included:

1x Instruction Booklet

1x Arch Clutch printed pattern piece (folded A1 sheet - 80gsm)

1x Resealable hanging bag to keep your paper pattern safe and sound!

* We have chosen durable, high quality paper specifically for the printed pattern sheets. 

A Message from Kylie

“This project is a lot of fun! It's the ultimate scrap-buster and the perfect use for your scraps of fabric from sewing projects past. Don't be intimidated by the curved zipper! Even if you've never sewn a zipper before, our instructions will guide you through the process and you'll acquire a new skill and a new clutch bag!"
