About the Quilted Hortensia Barrel Bag
The Quilted Hortensia Barrel Bag offers a unique twist on your classic barrel bag. It features a sleek flap with lock closure.
It has two quilted design options or it can be left un-quilted to showcase a print. On the inside, it boasts the signature Oro Rosa Patterns lining with a combo slip/zippered pocket on one side and a slip pocket on the other.
It has a large main compartment to hold all your other essentials. The lining has a bound finish.
Named for a dear family friend and one of my favourite flowers. To learn how to pronounce Hortensia, click here.

***IMPORTANT*** Use the Flex Foam FF77 if quilting. Use the Decovil Light 525 if you are not quilting the exterior.
* Woven fabric can be used for the exterior with this bag. If using woven, I suggest two layers of woven interfacing on all woven exterior pieces. Then stabilize as the pattern suggests. Only use hardware connectors for the side connectors. D-Rings will not work with woven fabric as they require hidden connector installation which has raw edges.
** Directional woven fabric for your lining is not recommended with this pattern. However, it can work if you modify the pattern pieces to suit directional needs.
