Sizing Info:
Fabric Choice is Key:
This bag is designed to be made using medium to heavy-weight woven fabrics for the Exterior Pieces and light to medium-weight woven fabric for the Interior/Lining Pieces.
Fabric Recommendation:
Outer/Exterior Pieces: Medium to heavy weight woven fabrics. For example: (faux) leather, vinyl, corduroy, (waxed) canvas (12–16 oz), denim, upholstery fabrics (jacquard, heavy wovens).
Lining/Interior Pieces: Medium weight woven fabrics (e.g. (waterproof) canvas, quilting cotton)
Stabilization/Interfacing:
Fusible Fleece Interfacing is recommended for the exterior pieces. Medium Weight Interfacing also works, but gives a different look. Fusible Fleece will result in a more structured bag, Medium Weight Interfacing will result in a more slouchy bag. Optionally, use a light to medium weight interfacing for the lining pieces.
Hardware:

I love this pattern! It's quite simple to follow, even though it looks complicated, but you just have to follow the instructions carefully. If needed, I watched the video and I'm very happy with the result. I really needed a small handbag in this color to wear with my matching canvas espadrilles. Since I couldn't find one in stores, I made it myself using this pattern. I definitely plan to make more! Don't hesitate!
I'm a beginner and so far have only sewed small bags. This was the most complicated one that I have attempted and I did get confused a few times but I worked it pity eventually and am really happy with the result. I'll definitely make more.
Love the Melissa crescent moon bag made two
my first one was in purple cordoury
And my seconds was in vinyl
Absolutely love this pattern. Looks complicated but it really isn’t! The instructions and video are clear and concise. End result is very professional.
This is such a fun pattern! Three sizes and multiple options for the front panel? Perfect! The small is a perfect complement to a night out, the medium is a great every day bag, and the large is good for when you need to carry a little more with you.
The pattern is really easy to understand and the video helps even more
Great bag. Easy instructions. Awesome siza options.
I love that there are multiple variations for making the exterior panels provided within the pattern. I used multiple materials with different textures and design to make each exterior panel. Quick and simple pattern to complete.
