Pack lunch with handmade style using the Lunch Box Delight Pattern by Kaitlyn Howell of Knot and Thread Design. This printed bag pattern walks you through making a structured lunch box-style bag with a handle, zippered front pocket, roomy interior, and practical mesh detail inside.
The finished lunch box shown on the pattern back measures approximately 9½" H x 8" W x 6" D, making it a useful size for packed lunches, snacks, small containers, utensils, and everyday grab-and-go items.
This is a fun project for showing off cheerful feature fabrics, playful prints, school-themed fabrics, novelty designs, or bright coordinates. The sample bags show how much personality this pattern can have depending on the fabrics you choose.
