The NAOMI bag by Ivona Fodora is based on a simple tote bag pattern, and you can adjust the size for your needs. Feel free to experiment with the shoulder straps and play with the pleat panels. The pleats are crafted freely and you are only given instructions regarding the length of the pleat panel. Feel free to adjust the length of the panels or to cut them from shorter pieces when needed. Use your creativity to make the pleating process fun and exciting.

Ivona Fodora is a designer and illustrator from Serbia, living in Helsinki, Finland. She likes the Finnish summer, long walks in the forest, painting, dark coffee, and chocolate.
