This adorable mini crossbody bag 2 is the spin off from the first mini crossbody bag tutorial that has been one of the most favorited video on my Youtube channel.
I added some cool extra features to this bag, without taking away the fun and simplicity of this project. There's an extra zipper pocket at the front, 6 card slots in the interior, and I made the strap a bit fancier by using vinyl fabric/faux leather.

Finished bag measurements : 9" x 7" x 1" (23 x 17.8 x 1 cm)
