I have a Simplicity Crafts pattern 7098 from 1998 that makes a variety of styles, but have never taken it out of the envelope. A lady at Curves was making them before Christmas using football motif, and selling them like hot cakes. I did find this link but it is not free.

This must be a hard one to find.

I recall that someone posted some photos of a nice quilted handbag just before Christmas. I went back 5 pages on the quilting site and 6 on the sewing forum and cannot find it. I recall that someone asked about the pattern and there was no response. Perhaps you can find it if you have time to search. Photos were posted with the message.
If all else fails, I could mail you the pattern. If you return it, it is fine, and if not, well I am not sure I will ever use the pattern. We can talk about that if you would like to have it. It is Simplicity Crafts 7098. Have you checked the pattern books? Let me know what you find. This has style A through H in quilted body with hand and shoulder straps.

Shoulder Sling Purse

Hi, all. I realize this thread has been going on for years (and years and years), but I gave my good faith effort to find this pattern on my own. I searched every variation of "shoulder sling" and/or "Annie's" I could think of, and though I found quite a few nice patterns, none of them come close to this one. If any of you are still following this thread and have the pattern, I'd love a copy ( maplewood81 [at] yahoo ). Or, if you could direct me to where I can buy it, I'd appreciate it as well. Thanks in advance!

I still have my Coach Willis in mahogany. It's relaxing on the top shelf of my closet in a flannel dust bag. It's the only one that I kept. I was amazed that Coach is now selling their vintage bags - they have a Willis for $650. DH and both boys have Coach briefcases that are over 25 years old and they no longer use them. I should send them that info, or one of the other sites like Posh Mark or Real Real. https://www.coach.com/products/vintage-willis-bag/CM665-MAH.html?COHNA=true&cid=S_GPLACM665&ogmap=PLA|RTN|GOOG|STND|c|SITEWIDE|Retail|Coach_RTL_Google_PLA_Signal_NA_Brand_National_Pmax_NA_BAU|Shopping_Smart_Brand||18473412937||US&utm_source=google&utm_id=go_cmp-18473412937_adg-_ad-__dev-c_ext-_prd-CM665%20MAH_sig-CjwKCAiAkfucBhBBEiwAFjbkr-5A0NR59qpcWDWU6a015CA4pQTkYlsnDMbwt-EffvpZ5zGJInItBhoCMOMQAvD_BwE&gclid=CjwKCAiAkfucBhBBEiwAFjbkr-5A0NR59qpcWDWU6a015CA4pQTkYlsnDMbwt-EffvpZ5zGJInItBhoCMOMQAvD_BwE

Thanks for all these responses 🌷 I was singing at a different church this am a few hours from my home and drove straight from there to the university where our masterworks chorale sings our last concert of the season at 3 pm. I have 45 min before call time and this is the first thing I checked, so I appreciate you! I will def ask about odors! Smoke, especially… big no no. This purse is travel specific, I want something small to wear as a crossbody in Scotland— not to Scotland, it will be packed until we get there. So I am looking for something pretty flat although I could not resist that cute bowling style bag. New is fine, but I don’t carry a purse this small unless traveling so it will have limited use and I won’t go over $150 which lets out a lot of new bags. I am taking a black, khaki and cream wardrobe and need something in that color scheme that is cute. TBH I was shocked at the number of matches when I searched Poshmark for “small crossbody purse black, brown, cream.” I selected the ones that were visually appealing just from the photos. Descriptions on PM tend to be cursory or non-existent, and I have a list of questions I can ask when I hone in on a few choices. Some of them look more worn than others and I can honestly say that doesn’t really bother me. I am terrifically hard on my purses and any one of them will look ten years older after this trip. 🤷‍♀️ So far, collectively you have identified my favorites, so I’ve got some good confirmation bias going 😎 Any and all new or used bags would be happily considered, so if you’re online and shopping…

Hi, I have made lots of purses and have directions in my computer. Let me know if you would like them snail mailed (I can't email them b/c I can't duplicate some of the drawings on the computer). Hopefully, you will be able to follow my directions; if not, please feel free to email or call me. If you go into the Sewing Gallery, under "2 Purses and a Book Cover", you'll see an example of one I made..it's the black purse. The other purse is a different pattern called the X-Bag that may be purchased from Four Corners Designs (I can't share those directions due to copyright issues).
