Ultimate Hobo Bag Pattern

This ultimate hobo bag pattern is easy to sew and even has 3 pockets inside! What more could you want?






Looking for the utimate hobo bag pattern? So was I , but now I think I have found it. It helps when you love the vintage inspired fabric the hobo bag pattern is made in as well.
I used a retro looking Heather Bailey fabric for this fun hobo bag pattern. The vintage curry yellow fabric looks amazing and really blends well with styles found today.
The inside of this vintage inspired hobo bag is a fun retro pattern named Dittybud - which is so sweet!
