Shipping & Returns
We ship Mon-Thursday and some Fridays. Please know USPS and UPS often say "delivered" but it takes an additional day or two for the package to actually BE delivered --yes, it's annoying! We have to deal with this every single day, this is not in our control.
On US Federal Holidays no mail moves - you *may* see a label print, but it will leave the next mailing day.
Here is our detailed shipping policy.
Please keep shipping insurance (Package Protection) in your cart. If you take it out, you will have to file your own claim with USPS or UPS.
👉 PLEASE DO NOT FILE A CLAIM OR A CHARGEBACK ON MISSING PACKAGES!!!!! THIS IS NOT THE CORRECT PROCESS. EMAIL US FIRST. help@sewhungryhippie.sbs
Did you know we will send a return label to you for returning items? When people "refuse" a delivery, it costs us triple the original postage to claim the parcel back. PLEASE DO NOT do this! EMAIL US or call us so we can handle it. Our contact page is here.
PRE ORDERS ship as stated in the listing -- usually these take some time to arrive. IF YOU COMBINE in stock items with a preorder they will ship TOGETHER at one time. If you file a chargeback on a preorder I will ban you from my website for the rest of time. I've only had to do this once, but it is totally rediculous to make up a story about arrival times when it is NOT in my control. WE DO NOT HOLD BACK items- there is NO ROOM or time to do this. I've stayed until midnight shipping preorders because they arrive at 5pm, just to get them out the door. BE COOL or be banned for life.
We do NOT cover import fees or duties if shipping out of the USA. Tariffs/duties have NOTHING to do with our company, we have no control over them.
If we made a mistake on your order OR if something arrives damaged, email us so we can fix it. The Sew Hungryhippie team strives for perfection but sometimes things happen. Thank you for your grace. help@sewhungryhippie.sbs
Returns are accepted for damaged items and we will send you a return label. Returns for any other reason are accepted within 14 days (30 days for international) at YOUR return shipping expense, and will be processed with a restocking fee of 10% to cover Shopify cc fees.
Thank you for supporting my small business! YOU have made a huge difference in my family's life and I think about it every single day.

This video course includes step-by-step instruction on making the Garcia Messanger Bag.
The Garcia Messenger bag is a great make for anyone who travels with a computer laptop. It can be used for another purpose (no laptop carrying) due to its attractive shape. It's a relatively quicker sew, especially if you're making it with SHH materials as we don't need interfacing.
Lifetime access to the video is included - simply log in to your account to view any courses purchased.
You will need the pattern. Select the "PDF Pattern Included" above (or purchase the PDF pattern here.) Or purchase the printed pattern here.

Every course by Natalie is excellent. Her down to earth personality combined with a smooth teaching style makes learning fun. I learn new techniques, and by sewing along with her videos, I always end up with a beautiful handbag. Highly recommend!
Clear instructions; fun techniques, and an engaging instructor.
Highly recommend!!
Natalie's videos are airways helpful, and this one is no exception. Thanks Natalie for all that you do to help us.
I always like to have a bag course to follow as I make a new pattern. Thanks Natalie and Romel.
Natalie gives the best classes. Not only is it step by step cutting, sewing, and assembly, but she gives you tips on how to get great results. Whether you’re a beginner or a seasoned pro, there’s always something new you can take away from the course. One of the best things though, is the encouragement and reassurance that comes from Natalie. That mistakes are okay- it’s not the end of the world- and that there’s more than one way to do a specific step. As she says, “you do you” and find what works best for you.
