The Diamond Lifter Heist Handbag
The Diamond Lifter© Heist Handbag introduces itself with an eye catching geometrically designed exterior, complimented by four high fashion pinched pleats. A topstitched, hardware decorated magnetic closure keeps all your precious things inside, and whether in your hand or over your shoulder, effortlessly attach your favorite strap by way of two hinged-trigger-rings secured by 12mm grommeted sides. And don’t forget to check underneath, where you’ll find a rivet-studded design…. Mmmm swanky. Your handbag’s interior flaunts a dropped liner with an easy-reach zip-pocket and an extra-wide but not-too-deep slip pocket, ready to conveniently embrace even the largest accessories.
EXAMPLE Bag patterns are thoughtfully organized using shapes and colors in simple unmistakable ways. Each of our patterns always begin with our exclusive pattern piece identification system, where each tag features a mini replica of the actual pattern piece it represents. And for the ultimate in visual ease, all EXAMPLE patterns are color coded, including the tags. You'll easily identify exterior pieces in blue, interfacings in violet and lining pieces in orange.
The Heist Handbag instructions include over 100 full color, real life photos all paired to an easy to follow step by step format - only 17 steps in total, with each step broken down further into a simple numbered order. You'll also enjoy our signature "Step Prep's" which appear immediately before the most important steps, preparing and guiding you with helpful tips and essential know-how.
You've never been more prepared to sew your very own EXAMPLE.
