Bozena Saddle Bag

THIS IS A PDF PATTERN, not a finished product.

Carry your belongings in style with this trendy semi-circle crossbody bag! Bozena saddle bag is a perfect companion on a night out or during the day when you only need to carry bare essentials. The pattern offers two different flap options that require either turn lock or press lock closure.
The bag features a handle on the top of the flap and a slip pocket on the back, which is perfect if you want to keep your phone or other items easily accessible on the go.
