The Russell Bag Pattern has been designed by, and written in collaboration with, our guest designer, Kate Baz Designs! Kate has extensive experience in sewing and embroidery. She is an excellent educator and very talented in design.
This pencil case is based on the size of your notebook, sketchbook, planner, etc. so it's perfectly fitted. The elastic band holds the case in place and gently holds the pages, acting as a bookmark at the same time. It makes the perfect accessory to compliment a gift of a journal or sketchbook. The name was inspired by Rosalind Russell and the classic movie, His Girl Friday.

Most patterns are measured and cut, which means that the pieces will need to be cut with a rotary cutter, ruler, and cutting mat. Some patterns may include templates for shaping and/or cutting out the pieces.
Trace or photocopy the pattern piece(s) onto a separate sheet of paper. If printing or copying template(s), print at 100% or actual size. Measure the test square provided in the pattern to ensure the pieces are the correct size. Tape corresponding pieces together before cutting fabric, aligning red lines, shapes, and outer edges. It’s also helpful to write the name and cutting instructions on each pattern piece. Cut out pattern pieces along solid black lines, unless otherwise stated.
