I'm happy to announce the immeadiate availability of our latest FreeSewing pattern: [the Hortensia handbag](/designs/hortensia/).
|
|
|
|
Hortensia's origin story traces back to [@stoffsuchti](https://twitter.com/stoffsuchti) who wanted
|
|
to create a pattern for a handbag, and was looking for somebody who could implement that design in code.
|
|
|
|
It was [Wouter](https://github.com/woutervdub) who answered the call and implemented the pattern,
|
|
making this another success story from the FreeSewing community.
|
|
|
|
## No measurements needed
|
|
|
|
This is the first pattern on FreeSewing that does not require any measurements to make.
|
|
There's some options you can choose — to control the size of the handbag for one thing — but
|
|
since this is a handbag, no measurements are needed.
|
|
|
|
This makes Hortensia a great project to make as a gift, since there's no need to worry about fit.
