Boutique Bags Reviews

The best book on bags I have ever seen. 19 fabulous bags to sew. Techniques, tip and know-how are all included plus full-sized templates. I love sewing books that give full-sized patterns, so this book is ticking all the boxes. Clear instructions, easy-to-follow and fantastic photos.

The projects are graded by skill and have suggestions for size and fabric differences. My favourites are the Evelyn Clutch, Miranda Bag and Stephanie Bag. You can make 76 bags with this book.

This is one of the best books we have seen. With 19 fabulous projects, beautifully photographed, full-sized patterns and 76 stylish variations, it certainly ticks all the boxes. Although aimed at the beginner, with plenty of basic techniques and clear easy-to-follow instructions, there is still enough interest and variety in the designs to engage more advanced sewers, too, with patterns and techniques that'll enable them to create their own designs. The projects are all graded by skill and have suggestions for size and materials. Our personal favourites are the Stephanie bag, Miranda Bag and Evelyn Clutch.

About Sue Kim

Sue Kim has been designing sought-after creative sewing patterns for many years. She lives in Manitoba, Canada, with her three lovely children and husband. Sue shares her patterns and creativity on her popular website, ithinksew.com. She started sewing when she was ten years old and has always had a passion for crafts. She earned a master's degree in ancient Asian theater. However, she kept sewing and designing as a hobby until, luckily, she was asked to be a sewing instructor at a Jo-Ann Fabric and Craft store. That expanded into requests to teach in several quilt shops. The quilt shop owners also encouraged her to start her own pattern business.

Her first patterns were for small bags and clutches, and eventually she was asked to make a pattern book of bags and clutches. Many of the patterns Sue sells are downloadable PDF patterns. She has completed several books of patterns and has become an independent pattern designer, writing for several publishers and pattern companies.

Sue has countless ideas; her sketchbook is never empty.
