This pattern is exceptionally well written and easy to follow. The instructions are clear, detailed, and organized in a way that makes the project approachable, even for someone with very little sewing experience. I believe even a complete beginner could successfully make this bag by following the pattern. Highly recommended! I truly enjoyed making it, and the video sewing tutorial was most helpful.
