Pattern Bundle: Nina Bag and Nina Handbag

Description

Sew the Nina Bundle – Two Patterns for a Large Bag and a Handbag

If one day you need your laptop, water bottle, and documents, and the next you only need your cell phone, wallet, and keys, you can use the Nina Bag Bundle to sew two bags that fit your needs. The large Nina bag has room for busy days, while the Nina clutch is more compact—both feature zippered openings and well-organized interiors.

The Nina Bag Bundle is a digital product that includes two patterns and detailed sewing instructions. You’ll receive the patterns for the Nina Bag and the Nina Handbag as an eBook—not ready-made bags.

The finished sizes:

Nina Bag: approx. (H/W/D) 29 × 40 × 20 cm
Nina Handbag: approx. (H/W/D): 22 × 32 × 14 cm

Both models feature a zipper opening, a zippered compartment, card slots, and large pockets. This helps keep your cell phone, wallet, keys, cards, cosmetics, documents, or travel essentials organized and prevents them from lying loose in the main compartment.

What is the Nina Pattern Bundle?

The Nina Pattern Bundle includes two digital patterns: the large Nina bag and the more compact Nina handbag. Both bags complement each other visually but differ in size and intended use. The Large Nina Bag is designed for days when you need to carry more: a laptop, A4 documents, a water bottle, a lunchbox, small purchases, or items for work, school, and travel. The Nina Handbag is more compact and perfect for days when all you need is your cell phone, wallet, keys, cosmetics, and cards—but still want everything to stay organized. With this bundle, you can sew two bags that are perfect for different everyday situations.

Nina Bag: A large bag for work, college, and travel

The Nina bag measures approximately (H/W/D) 29 × 40 × 20 cm and has room for A4 documents, a 13-inch laptop, a lunchbox, a water bottle, a wallet, keys, and small purchases.

When you pack your documents, laptop, and water bottle in the morning and stop by the store later, the interior layout helps you keep everything organized. Two large main compartments, a zippered pocket, and several small pockets ensure that valuables, cards, and frequently used items don’t get lost at the bottom of the bag.

The zipper closure protects the contents better than an open bag, making Nina perfect for the office, college, everyday use, travel, or a weekend getaway.

Nina Handbag: Compact Yet Well-Organized

The Nina handbag measures approx. (H/W/D) 22 × 32 × 14 cm and is the smaller option in the bundle. It has room for a cell phone, wallet, keys, cosmetics, cards, and small everyday items. This handbag also features a zippered opening and an organized interior. Card slots ensure that your bank card, loyalty card, or ID don’t end up loose in the bag. The zippered compartment is ideal for valuables or small items that need to be stored more securely. In addition, the instructions for the Nina handbag include a version with bag feet. These provide slightly better protection for the bottom of the bag and add a neatly finished detail to the finished bag.

Who is the Nina Bag Bundle best suited for?

This bundle is suitable for ambitious beginners with some prior experience and for experienced bag seamstresses. Nina isn’t really intended for a very first sewing project.

If you’ve already sewn makeup bags, simple shopping bags, or smaller bags, this bundle is a great next step. You’ll sew bags with zipper closures, linings, interior compartments, different strap options, and additional details such as rivets, eyelet screws, or bag feet.

The step-by-step instructions and supplementary tutorials will guide you through the most important steps of the process. This will help you tackle a larger bag project and, in the end, sew bags that not only look beautiful but also work well in everyday life.

Well-organized interior: compartments, a zipper, and space for your essentials

Both Nina models are designed on the inside so that frequently used items have their own designated spots. The bag closes at the top with a zipper. Inside, a zippered compartment, card slots, and large pockets help you keep your cell phone, keys, wallet, cards, cosmetics, and other small items organized. This is especially handy when you need to find something quickly while on the go: cards go in the card compartment, valuables in the zippered compartment, and items like lip balm, headphones, or tissues in the pockets.

Sewing for yourself or to sell at markets

For personal use, you can use this bundle to sew two bags suitable for different occasions: a large bag for work, college, travel, or the weekend, and a more compact handbag for everyday use, around town, or the office. If you’re sewing for markets, you can offer both styles individually or as a color-coordinated set. Please note the respective license terms for the pattern if you plan to sell the sewn bags. By varying the fabric, straps, zipper details, labels, or embroidery designs, you can create many different versions using the same patterns.
