The Town Bag is a versatile everyday purse and all-purpose project bag — whatever your project may be! Originally designed and sold by Fringe Supply Co., the Town Bag is designed to carry everything you need, whether you're knitting, sewing, or just on the go.

The Town Bag shares the same drawstring closure and interior pockets as the Field Bag (minus the grommets), but adds tote-style handles and roomy front and back exterior pockets. It’s large enough to hold a Field or Stowe Bag inside, yet compact enough to fit into a larger tote when needed.

The Town Bag features:

  • Drawstring top closure
  • Interior pockets for organizing tools and notions
  • Front and back exterior pockets
  • Sturdy tote handles for easy carrying

Techniques involved:
Sewing straight seams, working with heavy fabrics, and setting rivets (optional)

Difficulty: Advanced Beginner
