Behind-the-scenes...The shop is limiting the number of SIRINA bag photos to 9 only 😭So I'm adding some of the beautiful pattern testers' photos here. You'll love these fabric choices and all the pretty details!
First on, the SIRINA bag sewn by Ulrike @thebusysewingroom, for her daughter, on her beautiful, vintage Singer machine. She used black faux leather, and polka-dot piping on the pockets and strap for a bit of fun:
And this SIRINA bag was sewn by Cara @earlybirdstitches, in a beautiful blend of the Essex Linen and a floral cotton print from Art Gallery Fabrics. She opted for a magnetic snap at the top - one of the two options in the SIRINA pattern:

These are the people who've helped me make this bag pattern the best it can be. From tiny details that make your reading easier, better language, spotting where I typed "on the left" but meant "on the RIGHT", and all other improvements that can turn a good pattern into a great one.
I will always, always feel such appreciation for what you gifted me with. Without you, my pattern business would not have been possible. Thank you.
