With the first testing done on FoldNZip Pixie and Travel, the need for Clear Vinyl is pretty obvious! All the testers are in love with the FoldNZip and this pattern is PERFECT for a clear vinyl make.
It is a fast cut and sew yet looks so professionally made! It is probably my absolute favorite pattern to make with Clear Vinyl to date. It is a fast make if one is comfortable with binding method, and it looks so amazing as a gift or bags for craft show.

"I wanted to bring two of the things that make me happy together in this bag. Bridal Lace and lining with clear vinyl. This bag was by far my favorite. I encourage you to make one of these. I thought a clear bag would be limited in pockets and other details. This pattern doesn't disappoint. You're going to love making one of these. I know it :)"

"FUN, FUN, FUN! This is such a fun and fast make. Adding just a little pop of color from a solid vinyl will highlight and showcase any clear printed vinyl you use. The Pixie is a cute bag all on it's own but making the Pixie in clear vinyl makes it even more adorable. If I could choose only one FoldNZip pattern to make, it definitely would be the Pixie in clear vinyl."

"This is a perfectly easy pattern! It is so nice to finally have a pattern designed strictly for clear vinyls in mind. I love how you can easily create a bag using this pattern in a short amount of time! So many options including crossbody style, backpack, use it as a lunch bag or for a fun everyday bag. Since this pattern is part of the FoldNZip series, YES, the bag can be folded for easy storage! I highly recommend for everyone to give this pattern a try to showcase your beautiful clear printed vinyls. 🥰"
