From SewCanShe:

Be ready to travel handmade with a beautiful garment bag made by you! This sewing pattern for a fabric garment bag is easy to sew using techniques that I’ve shared in lots of my free bag patterns. There are lots of clever features that will make this your favorite piece of made-by-me luggage ever.

Features include:

  • The front of this approximately 24’’ x 40’’ garment bag (not including the handles and strap) has a long zipper that opens all the way at the top to make putting clothes in and taking them out super easy. 
  • On the back, there is a large 24’’ x 14’’ pocket that’s perfect for items that won’t stay on a hanger.
  • I decided to add decorative ribbon to my bag for extra ‘wow factor’.
  • Besides the handles at the top and bottom that allow you to carry this bag like a suitcase, there is also a detachable shoulder strap.
  • And don’t miss my favorite feature (something that was suggested by one of you!) – a tie at the top to secure the tops of your hangers so they don’t slip down into the bag when you carry it by the handles.
