INTRODUCTION
By the name of Pandora, this design marks the latest addition to the expanding Pandora series.  Following the release of the Pandora Allure in September 2024, which was incredibly well-received, many of you asked for more. The Pandora Charisma is our answer - offering the same signature style and functionality, now with even greater versatility.

This sleek and adaptable convertible sling bag is thoughtfully crafted with ample storage space and an array of pocket options to meet your every need.  Designed to fit a regular iPad, the Pandora Charisma Convertible is perfect for work, travel, or daily errands.  Whether you need a practical organizer or a stylish accessory, this bag offers customizable features and effortless elegance to suit your needs.

Front Exterior

  • Main Zipper Pocket: Perfect for showcasing a stunning panel print.
  • Side and Bottom Accents: Highlight and complement the front panel design.
  • Hidden Zipper Pocket: Discreet and secure for your essentials.

Back Exterior

  • Zipper Pocket: Adds extra storage and easy access.
  • Versatile Carrying Styles: Features left and right D-rings, allowing the sling strap to be attached on either side for user preference.

Interior Compartment (Four in Total)

  • Mesh Pocket: Ideal for lightweight clothing or essentials.
  • Slip Pocket: Quick and convenient storage.
  • 3D Pocket with Pen or Cable Holder and Zipper Pocket: Organizes your belongings effectively, keeping passport, phone and small items like pens or cables secure and accessible.
  • Sleeve Pocket: Designed for electronic devices such as iPad.

Enhanced Accessibility

  • The front and back wide-opening compartments are designed for easy access while remaining secure with the side gussets.
  • The front side gussets can be omitted for a sleek, mini-luggage style that’s ideal for both daily use and travel.
  • Messenger Style: Omit the strap connector if you prefer a crossbody or messenger style.

With its thoughtful design and adaptable features, the Pandora Charisma ensures you’re always prepared, whether at work, traveling, or tackling your day-to-day adventures. 

With four different compartments, customization is easy.  You can adjust the internal pockets to your needs. Additionally, you can choose to omit the back zipper compartment in favor of a single zipper compartment, which will make for a quicker sew.  You can also convert it into a mini luggage by omitting the side gussets.

This pattern is completed using the binding method.  As always, SVG and projector files are provided, along with a comprehensive video tutorial for a seamless sew-along experience.
