• Tailors Chalk (if using dark fabrics)
• Disappearing ink pen for marking on fabric

Before Class:
• To ensure we have time to get through all the important techniques in this pattern, please have your fabrics picked out and have them already cut to the pattern specifications.
• Please have your interfacing adhered to the proper pieces
o All exterior pieces should have fusible fleece

o All interior pieces should have SF 101 EXCEPT the interior zipper pocket piece does not get any interfacing at all.
o If you are making straps out of fabric as shown in the pattern, we can fuse the interfacing to those in class

• Please bring any leftover scraps from cutting the pattern with you to class just in case.
