Tabitha Jane – Reversible Tote Bag with Shoulder Strap | PDF Sewing Pattern

The Tabitha Jane pattern is Nancy Lorene’s favorite for a reason — it’s smart, stylish, and so much fun to sew! This reversible tote bag features an ingenious construction technique that creates four different looks from just one bag. It’s easy to sew, yet wonderfully satisfying in its design — every turn reveals a new combination of prints and colors.

Made with six Fat Quarters, the Tabitha Jane tote finishes at 16½″ tall × 18″ wide with 36″ handles, just right for comfortable over-the-shoulder carrying. It’s perfect for showing off bold fabrics or coordinating prints, and the reversible nature means you’ll never tire of it — one side for errands, another for a day out, another for the studio.

Each pattern includes clear step-by-step instructions and detailed diagrams to guide you through this clever, creative project.
