Members rowneyart Posted August 2, 2014 Members Report Posted August 2, 2014 Hi there, I wondered if anybody know whether it is possible to get a pattern/template to make a satchel. I have been making journal covers for quite some time now but would like to try some new work. Any advise is greatly appreciated Quote
Members billybopp Posted August 2, 2014 Members Report Posted August 2, 2014 Satchel is a pretty broad term. Can you be more specific? Quote
Members Needle Crook Posted August 2, 2014 Members Report Posted August 2, 2014 Just get some pattern paper and make some templates. You can make it exactly how you want! Quote
Members MonicaJacobson Posted August 5, 2014 Members Report Posted August 5, 2014 Hi Mark, I think you'd be surprised at how easy it can be to make your own template. Just use a straight edge and a square and round the corners with something handy. Sometimes I draw out all the separate pieces on a piece of paper just to make sure I've actually thought it through before I start cutting. Unfortunately, since I've always made my own, I don't really know where you can get any, but I have noticed a shop on etsy that sells patterns: https://www.etsy.com/shop/LZpattern . I've never tried any, but I really like the look of some of their products. And they have three or four free tutorials on there that look pretty informative. Quote
Members Hi Im Joe Posted August 5, 2014 Members Report Posted August 5, 2014 Monica beat me to the punch. LOL. I also have not bought anything from them either but they look pretty nice. Quote
Members Kustom Posted August 5, 2014 Members Report Posted August 5, 2014 http://www.bighousedaddy.com/business_satchel.htm This looks very nice. I've never bought a pattern from him, but I did talk to him on the phone once. Nice guy. Quote
