The Hexelle Bag combines geometric construction, zipper installation and precision topstitching to create a stylish crossbody bag with a beautifully professional finish.
This is not a beginner's first bag. It is designed for sewists who are comfortable with basic bag-making techniques and are ready to build confidence through a project that looks as impressive as it is enjoyable to sew.
You will learn and practise:
• Constructing a unique hexagon-shaped bag with clean, precise seams
• Installing an internal zipper pocket
• Creating an external zipper pocket with an optional zipper overlay
• Attaching strap anchor hardware for a polished, professional finish
• Working with multiple bag panels to achieve a crisp geometric shape
• Achieving clean topstitching and refined finishing details throughout.
If you enjoy projects that look distinctive, teach valuable bag-making techniques and result in a bag you'll be proud to carry, the Hexelle is a rewarding sew that will build your skills while creating something truly special.
