Today we celebrate the beginning of summer with a 1955 retro vintage beach towel-into-bag pattern! A unique accessory bag with inside and outside pockets to hold smaller items. When folded into itself and zipped up, it becomes a pillow with handles for carrying. The side strips can even hold your favorite magazine for beach time reading! I'm all for substituting velcro for zippers on accessory items -- so substitute where you feel comfortable.

Keep in mind that vintage patterns many times reference materials no longer available, but do reference fabric types, thread types, fabric widths, etc. Choose your materials from current manufacturers using this pattern's material reference as a guide.

Materials and instructions are in the PDF download link below. Please feel free to email us or post your finished photos -- and remember to "add a little vintage to your day!"

This pattern is free to our customers until June 7, 2011! After this time, you can purchase it from our web site, just click the link below.
