MERCI MULTIPURPOSE BAG is a bag that anyone can use regardless of gender and age. This simple yet classy bag can be worn as a crossbody, thanks to its adjustable and removable strap, as a pouch, thanks to the handle strap on the side, and as a sling/ hip bag, thanks to the side connectors.
Finished Dimensions (W x H x D):
LARGE: 12" x 6½" x 4" (30.5cm x 16.5cm x 10cm)
SMALL: 9" x 4" x 2¼" (23cm x 10cm x 5.7cm)
MERCI features a fully lined interior as well as a main zipper that closes it diagonally and comes in two sizes (large and small). The large-sized bag possesses two exterior zipper pockets for storing small items you would like to easily reach without opening the main bag. MERCI is accessible to intermediate-level sewists or any adventurous beginners because of the tricky stitching around the curves and tiny areas and is finished using the binding method.
