3 Beautiful Bags

Fresh off the press! 3 Beautiful Bags, an e-book by Lisa Lam, just became available about an hour ago! The downloadable book is a hefty excerpt of her upcoming book, A Bag For All Reasons, coming out in May 2012. As the title states, her e-book has tutorials on 3 unique, very lovely bags: The Compact Groceries Tote, The 3-in-1 Convertible Backpack, and the Fashionista Baby Bag (which is stylish enough to use as a personal bag). She includes full-sized template PDFs for each bag. But more than just the bags, the first half of the book has wonderfully detailed instructions on all kinds of sewing techniques, from adding zippers and magnetic snaps to modifying patterns, adding straps, inserting linings, and so much more.

If you order the book today, you’ll get a 20% discount (and 10% off tomorrow). To get a taste of the book, she’s offered us a free sample: the adorable Fashionista baby changing mat that you can tuck inside the Fashionista Baby Bag (both shown below).


Make sure to also download the template PDF that follows the tutorial PDF.
