This is SEWING PATTERN with detailed instructions and full scale templates for making a set of three items, all fully lined. The pattern is written in English ONLY, with all measurements in inches.
The pattern includes instructions for making a really useful fully lined Crafter's Tote bag (or tool bag) with external pockets, PLUS 2 x storage cubes that sit inside the bag, AND a handy little notions pouch for all your bits and pieces that will fit into one of the external pockets.
Full Scale Templates provided so no need for measuring BUT if you do want to work from measurements, full instructions are given to measure, cut and sew.

Summarized by AI
“I love how this bag turned out! I would consider this an advanced-beginner pattern. The instructions were good overall, but there were a couple of places where I got a little confused. I watched the Oklaroots video tutorial when I needed some extra clarification, and seeing those steps demonstrated helped a lot. The finished bag is a great size and has tons of storage. I especially love all of the exterior pockets and the zippered center section. I still need to make the little tool pouch that goes with mine, but I am already very happy with the finished bag. I would definitely make this pattern again!”

Response from Caroline
Thank you so much Jessica! The very nature of being a beginner is that you're going to feel a bit 'challenged' at most things you're not yet used to. I do think that every bag takes a bit of practice, but as a first attempt, this is gorgeous - well done you! The next one is bound to be even more beautiful, and your knowledge and skill will all be improving. Practice doesn't necessarily make perfect, but it does make 'better' - keep up the good work!
Fantastic bag, easy to follow, great instructions. Loved making every pattern I've brought from Kandou
