The Aurora Nova Sewing Pattern

12,00 $

The Aurora Nova Bag is a stylish new take on the original Aurora Bag, first released two years ago. While it retains some of the signature design elements of the original, the Aurora Nova features a completely new pattern with redesigned pattern pieces and several new details. This medium sized shoulder bag is designed for everyday wear. Its spacious interior provides plenty of room for your essentials while keeping the bag compact and lightweight for comfortable carrying.

It has the same overall dimensions as the original Aurora, but its construction and shape are entirely new, giving it a fresh and modern look. The Aurora Nova uses only three pattern pieces from the original version.

Its design works beautifully with different fabrics, such as faux leather, cork, leather and waterproof canvas. In the tester gallery, you can see Aurora Nova bags made from all of these fabrics. The front and back exterior are made up of several pieces, giving you the freedom to experiment with color blocking, contrasting textures and embroidery, allowing you to create a bag that is truly your own.
