This is a wonderful pattern. It's well written and easy to make. It can be fun or it can be fancy. Great bag.
Thank you so much, Barb!
We’re thrilled to hear how much you enjoyed the Miranda pattern. It really is such a versatile design — fun or fancy, quick to make, and wonderfully written for an easy sewing experience. We’re so glad it worked so well for you. The one you shared here is gorgeous! We love that you used the new cork as well.
Whenever you make your next Miranda, we’d love to see it. Feel free to show it off in our Facebook group.
Thanks again for sharing your experience with us!
I haven’t started making this yet but I read through the instructions and it looks pretty straightforward. Can’t wait to get started on it.
Thank you so much, Erin! We’re glad to hear the Miranda instructions look clear and straightforward. It’s such a fun tote to make, and we can’t wait for you to dive in. If you’d like a little extra guidance along the way, we also have a tutorial on our YouTube channel. Wishing you lots of enjoyment as you get started—thanks for sewing with us!
Love this bag! I’ve been looking for a mid-sized bag WITH a zipper closure for some time. This bag checked all my boxes. And it was simple to customize the inside a bit. It was particularly helpful to be able to follow the on-line video from Missouri Star. Thanks to both companies!
Thank you so much, Ursula! I’m thrilled to hear this bag checked all your boxes — a mid‑sized style with a zipper closure can be surprisingly hard to find, so I’m glad this one was the perfect match. It’s wonderful that you were able to customize the inside so easily, too. And I love that the Missouri Star video was helpful along the way; we’re always happy when makers can learn from both of our resources. If you ever feel inspired to share your beautiful, finished bag you shared on the review, we’d love to see it in the Sallie Tomato Patterns & Hardware Facebook group. Your makes always inspire others in the community and we love the one that you made!
Such a great pattern! The bag is structured perfectly! I love the size of this bag. Have made several!
Hi Shara, Thank you so much for your wonderful feedback! We’re thrilled to hear that the Miranda pattern has become a favorite — the structure and size really do make it a standout.

If you ever feel like posting more photos, we’d be delighted to see them in our Sallie Tomato Patterns and Hardware Facebook Group. Keep up the amazing work!
Love the bag! Easy to follow instructions cannot wait to make several trying different materials
