The Speedwell sling bag is a modern unisex bag design from Blue Calla Sewing Patterns. The Speedwell has one front zippered flap pocket with two zippers on each side and closes at the top with your choice of a small twist lock or magnetic snap. When the flap is open, the contents will stay safe inside the front pocket thanks to the gussets on each side. Inside this front flap pocket is one slip pocket and one zippered pocket. You may also wish to install one or two grommets (they are optional) to thread your earbuds through. The Speedwell sling bag interior offers two more slip pockets. The strap is adjustable! An intermediate sewing project. This bag should measure 8″ wide x 12” high x 2.5” deep once complete.
