Almost Monochrome Bag and Cushion Pattern
This pattern will guide you through making both the really useful bag and the comfortable cushion. They are both made of cotton canvas, which gives them both strength and great wear.
Once created these items can be used time and time again, helping to reduce waste and help the environment one bag at a time.
