Bags & Backpacks

Unique leather bag patterns let you create handbags, backpacks, and accessories that stand out from the ordinary. This category brings together my most imaginative designs, blending functionality with playful details and sculptural elements.

Animal-Inspired Templates

If you love animal designs, you’ll enjoy the Aiko Dog Bag, available as both a crossbody and a backpack. It combines everyday practicality with a charming face design. For cat lovers, the Cat Shopper Bag adds humor and lightness to daily use, whether for books, groceries, or just showing your love for felines. Pet owners will also appreciate the DIY dog walking bag patterns, which feature compartments for treats and even a built-in dispenser for waste bags.

Transformer and Unusual Bags

One of the highlights here is the Transformer leather bag pattern system. It starts with a strong base and allows you to swap panels to completely change the style. Options include a dramatic steampunk dragon, a colorful LGBT heart, or playful animal faces. With just one foundation, you can craft multiple unique looks. For something different, the Tube Bag Pattern offers a sleek cylindrical design that works perfectly for documents or creative projects.

Files and Tutorials

All templates are prepared in PDF format (A4 and US Letter) so you can print them at home with ease. Many patterns also include SVG and DXF for laser cutting or plotter machines, giving you flexibility in how you craft. Every design is supported by a full video tutorial, guiding you step by step through the assembly process.
