A simple, generous everyday tote that comes together quickly and gets used constantly.
The Pepin is the kind of bag you reach for without thinking – roomy enough for a notebook, lunch, and the extras that never fit in your purse, but clean enough in shape to feel intentional.
It's beautiful in its simplicity, but there's also room to play. Add a magnetic snap or recessed zipper for a more secure closure, dress up the front pocket with a turn lock or fancy snap, or let a favourite fabric do all the talking. And because the whole pattern is made of rectangles, there's nothing to print, trace, or tape together – you cut straight from the fabric and start sewing.
✨ Here's why you'll love it:
- Generous everyday size that fits a notebook, a water bottle, and your everything-else
- Front pocket that's perfect for featuring a special print or fussy-cut detail
- Divided interior pocket for keys, phone, and lip balm
- So many ways to customize: magnetic snap top, recessed zipper, decorative snap on the front pocket, a turn lock, a Loxx closure… make it yours
- No templates to print or tape – all rectangles, cut straight from the fabric
- Free video sew-along walks you through every step
