Download the Pattern and Instructions

Please download the pattern files numbered 1-6 in the Resources section (these are the newest files).

Note: If you purchased an Oberlin Full Maker Kit, you will not need to print the pattern as all the pieces are already cut and marked for you!

There are two ways to print your pattern.

1) Print the tiled pattern on your home printer at 100%

2) Send the full large pattern to your local print shop and request lightweight paper.

**Note to current and past students: We've recently updated our videos with new, refreshed versions! Don't worry, all of the major construction components for the bag are still in the new videos, they've just gotten better. Not only are the new videos higher quality, they include new construction techniques while showing you how to use some of our favorite tools and materials.

The older Sewing Machine 101, Design and Fabric Strap videos will stay included with the class through the end of the year but will be removed in January 2020.
