Introducing the KENT CLUTCH BAG sewing pattern, an easy bag to sew with full video sewalong tutorial
Get the pattern here - sewsimplebags.com/kent-clutch-bag-sewing-pattern/
This smart wristlet clutch bag has a jaunty diagonal seam front and back, created with a slightly different construction method that does away with the centre bottom seam, although you can choose to add that back in if working with a directional fabric.
I think you’ll love the option to learn the custom pocket hack technique that you can apply to the lining of all of your future bag patterns and projects to create neat slip pockets that exactly fit what you plan to carry.
This clutch has a removable wristlet strap included as standard, but add another strap connector on the other side seam and this bag is also ideal for turning into a shoulder bag or crossbody bag with a snap on adjustable strap in a length of your choice.
Features of the Kent Clutch Bag sewing pattern
* removable wristlet strap
* a flat base so the bag will sit without falling over and spilling the contents
* instructions for creating custom interior pockets that you can use in all of your sewing projects
* bulk-free zipper construction for neat zipper ends
* easy to follow pattern with clear color step-by-step photo instructions
* interesting construction method
* optional video tutorial, get the pattern with or without the video

    I actually made this today and it came out pretty darn nice. I used claret satin on the outside and gold shimmery light material on the inside. Then braided some gold silk wool I had as the wool on its own wasn't strong enough to pull through. The braided drawstring looks super cool. Thank you for a very comprehensive tutorial.

    I have found that SF101 with the dots of glue for fusing) (despite pressing it carefully) that after it has been ironed a few times, my outer fabric gets "wrinkles" or puckering (I had a stitched opening that required pressing after I turned my bag project right side out - to smooth the fabric again.) I also get little pieces of the dots of glue down in my bobbin casing area (I have a Babylock Ballad). After sewing many bags I needed to have my machine serviced to get those little "sticky" things out. I'm going to use sew in fleece like TP970 (Pellon) or Pellon 988 (again sew in fleece) instead. I have long discarded fusible interfacing for clothing for the same reason - it eventually puckers after washing and drying. I'll stick to sew in interfacings to stiffen and shape my craft projects. Thank you for the video - it was very informative.

    I only made 1 bag before and when I interfaced it, the bag fabric ended up with a horrible grainy texture. It put me off trying to make another. I am wondering if decovil light is any good for bags?

You mentioned other ideas... I would like to learn how to add a zipper pocket. I have a general idea how to do that but I am sure you would have some great tips and ideas. Thanks again.
