Bag Maker's Club Spotlight: Linds Handmade!

There’s something magical about connecting with the people who dream up the bag patterns we love to sew. For this month’s Bag Maker's Club feature, we had the joy of sitting down with Lindsay, the creative force behind Linds Handmade. Her designs have quickly become staples in the sewing community, and her Tracy Wristlet is no exception. Thoughtfully designed and refreshingly approachable, the Tracy Wristlet blends everyday function with a refined, timeless look.

In our exclusive “Behind the Seams” chat, Lindsay opened up about what inspired the Tracy Wristlet and how she balances design with usability. She shared her favorite sewing tips, the design details she can’t live without, and what it means to her to create patterns that are both fun to make and easy to customize. Listening to her passion for bag making is a reminder that every stitch carries a story.

Featured Pattern: The Tracy Wristlet

For our Bag Makers Club version of the Tracy Wristlet, we paired Sallie Tomato Ecru Ostrich Faux Leather with Beige Nickel zippers and hardware to create a soft, luxe finish. The texture of the ostrich faux leather makes the wristlet feel both sophisticated and modern, while still maintaining the everyday wearability that Lindsay designed it for.

We took the look a step further with the Sallie Tomato strap chain, adding just the right amount of polish and shine. Not only does the chain give the bag a fashion-forward edge, but it also makes the wristlet an effortless grab-and-go accessory. To round it all out, we used rivets that glimmer beautifully against the faux leather while reinforcing the design with strength and durability. It’s a small detail that makes a big impact in both style and functionality.
