Description

Discover Noodlehead’s, 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 can fully customise your bag with your choice of main fabric, accent fabric, and pocket hardware. If you’d like, I can 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.
