Barnaby Leather Tote – A0 Printed Paper Template

Prefer not to print and piece together your pattern at home? Our A0 printed paper template for the Barnaby Leather Tote is the perfect solution. Professionally printed on sturdy paper and delivered straight to your door, it’s ready to use right out of the envelope—no taping or trimming required.

The Barnaby Leather Tote is a versatile and practical everyday bag that combines elegance with functionality. With fixed bugatti-style handles and the option to add a crossbody strap, it offers the perfect balance of style and convenience. The clever cinch detail allows you to adjust the silhouette from a spacious open tote to a more compact and structured carryall.

Inside, you’ll find a zipped internal divider, internal zipped pocket, and an external zipped pocket to help keep everything organised. With a solid base and structured build, it’s ideal for carrying everything from your laptop and books to everyday essentials. A satisfying make with a professional result—completely achievable on a domestic sewing machine.
