Discover Noodlehead’s, the Oxbow Tote — a versatile zip-top bag available in two sizes (regular and overnight). This practical yet stylish tote includes an easy-access front pocket, reinforced base, removable crossbody strap, and a spacious interior with a slip pocket. You’ll be able to fully customise your bag with your choice of main fabric, accent fabric, and pocket hardware. If you’d find it useful, I’ll also guide you through adding a luggage sleeve to the back of your tote.

Fabric Options
The Oxbow Tote is wonderfully adaptable. You can use a wide range of fabrics, including:

• Pre-quilted fashion fabrics

• Waxed or waterproof canvas

• Denim

• Curtain or tapestry fabrics

• Tweed

For the lining, waterproof canvas, quilting cotton, or linen blends all work beautifully. You can add even more personality by choosing a contrasting accent fabric for the front pocket or opting for a statement webbing strap.

Before the Class
You’ll receive the pattern along with a helpful interfacing cheat sheet to guide your choices. Different interfacings — from foam wadding to fleece and woven options — will give your finished bag its own unique structure and feel.
