The Travelnizer
The Travelnizer is where it all began back in October 2023 - a family-sized toiletry organizer designed to hold everything in one place. With generous compartments and multiple pockets, it’s perfect for group travel, crafting retreats, vendors' shows, or even as a well-organized storage companion at home. It’s ideal for families, long trips, or anyone who loves a well-structured, roomy organizer.
The Packmate
The Packmate followed the Travelnizer with a sleeker, more compact design - a versatile crossbody or toiletry bag that quickly became a community favorite. It has the same clean lines and organized layout, but in a smaller package that makes it a go-to gift or everyday carry.
The Simplified Packmate
Need a quick, satisfying sew? Simply remove the side zipper pockets and you’ve got a faster version that’s just as functional.
The Belmont Compact
The Belmont Compact bridges the gap between a toiletry bag and a crossbody, making it sleek, slim, and highly adaptable. Carry it with the top grab handle, wear it crossbody, or use the back handle to convert it into a toiletry organizer. With added stabilizer, it also doubles as a compact camera bag, offering protective cushioning for lenses and gear.
The Belmont Luxe
The Belmont Luxe takes everything loved about the Compact and scales it up for those who need more room. Spacious yet streamlined, it works beautifully as a travel crossbody, stylish everyday bag, or fitness companion. It easily holds essentials like a water bottle, towel, and change of clothes, making it versatile for travel, gym, or work.
Why You’ll Love the Travel Series
Each bag in the Travel Series is constructed differently, so you’ll always learn something new when making them. Whether it’s the family-sized organization of the Travelnizer, the sleek practicality of the Packmate, or the refined versatility of the Belmont Compact and Luxe, there’s a design for every maker and every occasion.
No matter which one you sew, you’ll end up with a bag that’s not just functional but beautifully finished, inside and out.
