RETIREMENT SALE *Boro Patchwork Crossbody Bag PDF Sewing Pattern | Scrap Fabric Messenger Bag | Quilted Sashiko Style | Beginner Friendly

Turn your fabric scrap bin into a one-of-a-kind bag. The Scrap Wanderer is an original boro-inspired patchwork crossbody/messenger pattern built around a guided improv piecing method — no two bags come out alike, and every odd-shaped offcut finally has a home.

This listing is a downloadable PDF sewing pattern (no physical item ships). Finished bag: 11 x 9 x 3 in (28 x 23 x 7.5 cm) with an adjustable strap dropping approx. 45–52 in (114–132 cm), flap closure with magnetic snap, and a self-lined interior slip pocket.

What's included (4 PDF files):

Full illustrated instructions with materials, cutting list, a step-by-step Patchwork Piecing Guide, and sashiko-style quilting guidance
Printed pattern templates for every single piece (including the strap and tabs) — nothing is left to freehand rotary-cutting
Two numbered Patchwork Foundation Piecing Grids so you always know your scrap-piecing order
US Letter tiled file, A4 tiled file, and a single-sheet A0 copyshop file — print whichever suits your printer

Confident-beginner to intermediate skill level. All measurements given in inches first with centimetres alongside, throughout.
