the Daphne bag {Perfect Pattern Parcel Exclusive}

Happy Friday everyone! We’re excited to announce the release of our newest pattern, the Daphne bag, as an exclusive launch for Pattern Parcel #7! What is the Perfect Pattern Parcel, you may ask? It is a curated collection of patterns {this time handbags!} that is sold together with proceeds benefiting classrooms in need. You choose your own price and how much you’d like to donate, and you’ll receive five amazing patterns.

Parcel #7 includes:

Barcelona Bag and Wallet by Pat Bravo

Butterfly Sling Purse by Emmaline Patterns

Evelyn Hangbag by ChrisW Designs

Midtown Messenger Bag by Betz White

Betty Bowler by Swoon Sewing Patterns

BONUS PATTERN: Daphne Bag by Clover & Violet <–That’s us!

Choose a price of $32 or greater for Parcel #6 and you will automatically also be sent the Bonus Pattern! That’s only $5 a pattern. The Bonus Pattern for this Parcel is the brand new Daphne Bag pattern from Clover & Violet. The Daphne is a slouchy satchel that can be worn cross body or as a shoulder bag. The zip top keeps your gear secure and the internal pockets keep your accessories where you need them. This is a brand new, never been seen before pattern and is an exclusive opportunity for Parcel #7 customers!

How Pattern Parcel Works:

Here at Perfect Pattern Parcel, we believe in supporting independent pattern designers. It’s our opinion that indie patterns are just, well, better than big box patterns, and we’re pretty sure our customers think so too. So, we allow customers to show their support in naming their own price for each Parcel.  We also encourage customers to allocate part of their Parcel price to the charity Donorschoose.org in order to help classrooms in need. Pattern Parcel donates all profits after expenses from Parcel sales to the charity as well. Its our goal to raise over $20,000 for Donors Choose this year.

We’re excited to be included in this great collection for a great cause. You can also read more about the Perfect Pattern Parcel on their blog.

Note: I’m still waiting for some photos from pattern testers, so those will be posted in a separate post.
