Newly updated 7/2021 with a cutting chart, new diagrams, and fresh links. The original pattern (2016) is still great and works, I've simply updated and refreshed everything.
The Santorini Tote is a great bag to make especially if using unconventional materials such as vinyl or cork.
Three size options are included in the pattern: small or purse size, medium, and large. Finished sizes are approximately (will depend on your bottom corners) 16" x 13", 19" x 16", and 21" x 17".
Pattern pieces are NOT included in the printed booklet - they are rectangles, very easy to measure and cut.
